Beacon Release Patch
Hello everyone!
The day has finally arrived for Beacon to leave Early Access! Patch 3.0 is now released, including the new Scrap Currency system, Boss Mutations, Minibosses, new Act 2 Bosses, multiple new Endings, 30 new Items, 18 new Enemies, Achievements, and dozens of other tweaks and fixes. This patch is over twice the size of previous content patches and we hope everyone enjoys what we consider the fully realized version of the game! The full patch notes are below for anyone who wants to dig into the details.
We’ll still be watching over the release and will keep an eye out for any important fixes or tweaks suggested. We’re also still working on finalizing a couple of the new Endings to be added in the coming weeks, including the Solus and mysterious Onyx endings.
Thanks once again to everyone who played and provided feedback over our First Access and Early Access releases! Without your input the game would not be where it is today, and we’re grateful for everyone who contributed to Beacon’s journey throughout its development over the last few years.
