Greetings Captain!

We have just released a Major Update: The Perilous Bounty.

This packs in a bunch of exciting additions to Abandon Ship, and the post below explains these in greater detail.

We have also released a trailer showing the new features, which you can view here:





Before we look at the latest changes, some important house-keeping: Because we’ve had to change the world to accommodate these new systems, your saves from previous versions will not work with this latest update.

If you are mid-playthrough on the previous version and wish to continue it, then you may switch over to this older version of the game via the Beta Branches system:

•   Go to your Steam Library
•   Right-click on Abandon Ship and select "Properties"
•   Go to the tab marked "Betas"
•   In the drop-down box, select the one called "0.5.8433 – Treasure from the Deep Version"
•   Wait for the game to finish updating, you should see the branch name listed after the game name.
If you’re up-to-date on the Beta Branch (i.e you already have the items listed below) then your saves will be unaffected.


Full list: here

The Haunted Seas Preview Build
Abandon Ship - Gary Burchell



I bring spooky tidings, Captain.

We have a Major Update incoming, titled "The Haunted Seas". As well as a bunch of new systems and improvements, it also unlocks a new region AND standalone story.

As you've probably guessed, the theme of this update coincides with Halloween, and we really need the help of dedicated Captains to test it and provide feedback on any nasty bugs you find.

To learn how to gain access to the Beta Branch, click on this link:

If the number in the bottom-right corner of the Main Menu ends in 10364 or later, you have the correct version.

Haunted Seas Escape
This new side story lasts approximately 60 - 90 minutes and focuses on a new Captain with a tragic past. Lured into the Haunted Seas, they must attempt to escape while finding the truth.

Major Update Released: The Haunted Seas
Abandon Ship - Gary Burchell



Happy Halloween, Captain.

Our latest update unlocks a region, includes a new standalone 'Abandon Ship Story' and has a whole host of other cool stuff!

We've released a trailer to accompany our latest Major Update, which you can watch here:





First, some important house-keeping: Adding a new region means your saves from previous versions will not work with this latest update. We have added some new quick-start locations with ship customiser to get you close to where you were previously - we'll explain that in more detail below.

If you are mid-playthrough on the previous version and wish to continue it, then you may switch over to this older version of the game via the Beta Branches system:
•   Go to your Steam Library
•   Right-click on Abandon Ship and select "Properties"
•   Go to the tab marked "Betas"
•   In the drop-down box, select the one called "0.5.9802 – The Perilous Bounty Version"
•   Wait for the game to finish updating, you should see the branch name listed after the game name.

If you’re up-to-date on the Beta Branch (i.e you already have the items listed below) then your saves will be unaffected.

Major Update Released: Shattered Empire
1 Feb - Gary Burchell   



Ahoy Captains!

We've unlocked three regions for you to explore in our latest Major Update, alongside a load of other cool new stuff, making this our biggest one yet.

Check out this video of the latest additions to see them in action:




Before we delve into Shattered Empire, some important house-keeping: We've greatly optimised our save files, which were becoming too large. This change means your existing saves will not work in the latest version - but fear not! There are multiple quick-starts, and the latter two have the option to customise your ship and crew so you can approximate where you were before.

If you are mid-playthrough on the previous version and wish to continue it, then you may switch over to this older version of the game via the Beta Branches system:

•   Go to your Steam Library
•   Right-click on Abandon Ship and select "Properties"
•   Go to the tab marked "Betas"
•   In the drop-down box, select the one called "0.5.10427 – The Haunted Seas Version"
•   Wait for the game to finish updating, you should see the branch name listed after the game name.

If you’re up-to-date on the Beta Branch (i.e you already have the items listed below) then your saves will be unaffected.
