Here’s everything coming in the huge ‘2.0’ update, including new Behemoths, weapons, and much more.

Developer Phoenix Labs is promising unlockable Talents, streamlined mechanics, reworked Behemoths (there are over 30 now). Players can earn XP on two weapons at a time with the addition of subweapons.
The game will also finally come to Steam, and the team is working on achieving Steam Deck support. Considering there’s cross-progression, I can see myself downloading it to slay Behemoths across the holiday season.
