With all the content updates since its release last year, this is now the perfect opportunity to grab your dearest co-op enemies and create some beautiful, nuclear and sinister havoc. Trust us: there will be blood in the water.

But let’s talk about the update itself: Blood in the Water will allow new players to get familiar with the game, while providing added difficulty for veteran players. Besides additional difficulty options, the update adds new content to Barotrauma: Two new monsters, and with them a more aggressive behaviour for all monsters, an event system overhaul, medical system rework and many more. An in-depth list of changes and additions is available on the Barotrauma-Website. Need a refresher on Barotrauma? Watch our 1.0 release video and explainer here:
