Necesse news & patch notes

The Necesse Rust & Romance Update is now live!

As always, if you haven’t gotten the update on Steam yet, then try to restart Steam or verify game files. This also means that the Necesse Steam Free Weekend has just started! If you want your friends to try the game, this weekend is perfect for that! Necesse is also on a 50% sale. It's the largest discount since 1.0, so now is a great time to pick it up 😊 If you missed our trailer for the update, check it out here: Alright, we added a TON of stuff in this update. So let's get to it! While your previous saves will work with this update, we still highly recommend starting a new world to get the full experience.

Settler Personalities

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/7a3f9cc3e6b8b1e92473a6aa4e7962f8a0a731ba.gif The settlers were always something I wanted to give more depth. This update does just that by introducing personalities to each settler. They're also more lively in your settlement as we've replaced work breaks with recreation time. Personalities are split into two different variants. Perks and preferences. The perks improve certain things the settlers are good at, such as combat prowess or work efficiency. Whereas the preferences focus more on the settler's needs and wants. If you spend a lot of time finding and optimizing your settlers, they can become quite crazy combat allies or speedy workers in your settlement. Our friendly dev Jonas rambled through a whole video about personalities. You can check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZK6iit552aE

Romance ❤️

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/90ac1eccb51b7e707339516639e402e2c35fbc84.gif As the name suggests, Necesse Rust & Romance brings a brand new romance system to the game. It is now possible to start dating your settlers by bringing them a pretty flower! When you do, you'll be lead on a series of unique romance quests, which may lead to them falling for you... But I'll leave the details out, for you to discover 😘

The Scrapyard

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/3724e208004def7c3f9e88903798fb5425ca6d5e.gif This update introduces a new tier 8 incursion: The Scrapyard. It's filled with new enemy types, weapons and armor you can craft. And of course a new unique boss which has a chance to drop a fun new toy.

Bigger Biomes & The Charred Forest

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/142ef31d5ae3e6e50db99c8d984744c4ba16b033.gif We're still on the mission to make Necesse the best game it can be. One of the major points of feedback since the 1.0 were the new biome sizes. This update tries to fix that by making them much bigger, and we'd love to know what you think. But beware when exploring the bigger biomes! There have been sightings of large patches of Charred Forests, fiery birds in the sky and forgotten golems in the ash... And those were just the major features. We've also added a lot more smaller changes, quality of life and bug fixes. Here are a few of them!

• Added 2 new craftable summon weapons in the early game.
• Added the Transmutation Station used to easily convert Essences in the end game.
• Added 29 new cool objects that grant happiness to settlers in the room they are placed.
• Fixed a bug that nerfs the Bashy Bush summon weapon (sorry, not sorry).
• Added a settler list in the top left, while in the settlement menu and a better command menu.
• Added 4 new achievements!

You can read the full changelog below. With this update, we've brought a lot of changes to the systems you know, and we'd love to hear your feedback on them. Even though it has gotten more time consuming, I do still read all the reviews and feedback that comes in. So don't hold back! 😊 Lastly I’d also like to personally shout out our amazing community translators who've been helping us translating this update before it went live. Thank you so much for your hard work! Enjoy the update everyone! - Fair {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/eec905cc4991b099dfa72306af5511ba5192675a.gif

In the meantime, we’ve been hard at work on the next major content update for Necesse. Instead of pushing out smaller features and updates, we’re going to bring some larger, much-requested changes to Necesse coming this summer. It’ll include all the features planned on our living roadmap’s spring and summer update, as well as more unannounced stuff. As always, we’ll share more and start to tease some of that content as we get closer to the update. See you on Thursday, and happy Easter to everyone celebrating! - Fair {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/1ececdfb6fb96937355c0019ed4da186dc46d243.gif

Necesse Version 1.1 is now live! To celebrate the update and Christmas, we're also taking part in the Steam Winter Sale with a 35% discount on Necesse on Steam! If you haven’t gotten the update on Steam yet, then try to restart Steam or verify game files. Last week we put together a juicy teaser trailer for the update! Check it out below: If you'd like to see more of stuff like this, make sure to follow our socials! You can find them at the bottom of this post. After releasing Necesse 1.0 back in October, the team has been taking some well deserved vacation. Which also means that this update isn't as big as our usual major content updates. Alright, let's dive into the update! This time around we've chosen to focus on in-game balancing, adventure party improvements and adding more critters/wildlife to Necesse. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/7f770bd466002048eb3e6646a582f68c1787d0f2.gif We have buffed the resilience gain on true melee weapons quite a bit and also improved a lot of resilience trinkets. While we know that this isn't a final solution for making true melee as viable as all the other classes, we believe that it's a step in the right direction. We have also slightly buffed the health of all Incursion content while reducing the overall damage of Incursion enemies. The intent here is to prevent powerful builds from making bosses irrelevant by killing them in a few seconds, while also not making you die quickly in just a couple of hits. We'll make sure to monitor feedback for this change over the coming weeks, so don't hesitate to submit feedback in-game or on our socials if Incursions feel too hard/easy. Note that we can't respond to feedback submitted in-game. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/fb08da8efc3cebcf15efdf25fba028e147a7d854.gif As mentioned on our roadmap, we've also made some improvements to adventure parties and settlement management in general. You can now search for settlers by name/role and also assign them to specific groups. This way you'll only need to do a single click to select the settlers you want to bring with you, when it's time to go spelunking. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/32fe902b1fce4a39cde7d3552ad8bc98ef0eea5a.gif We have also brought some new friends to the world of Necesse! Friendly creatures such as butterflies, fireflies, cave cropplers... And sharks. Sharks are friendly right? Some of the other features in this update include:

• Maps for the Chieftain, Cursed Chrone and Sage & Grit. Similar to Dungeon/Pirate maps.
• 3 new perks for the Incursion Perk Tree.
• 3 new Incursion quests and quest rewards. Including the 8th trinket slot as a reward!
• Recipes for a lot more cave rock tiles, walls and doors.
• Settlers are now immune to damage for 5 seconds after being revived.
• The Clockwork Heart trinkets now also causes excess healing from potions to restore resilience.
• A ton of fixes to issues reported by you <3

You can read the full changelog below. I'd also once again like to personally thank everyone who purchased and played Necesse during the launch of 1.0. It has been absolutely breathtaking to see all of you enjoy our game and we can't wait to show what we have planned for Necesse in 2026. Enjoy the update and the holidays everyone! - Fair {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/dc1908e01f154ad00448549870546fc8e5a475d2.gif

Hey everyone! Steam Award nominations are now open, and we would love your support by nominating Necesse for the Better With Friends award! We hope everyone has enjoyed the 1.0 as much as we've enjoyed reading all your feedback :D There are still some things to iron out, and we're working on that as well as other improvements. Necesse has been my life's work, and I am beyond grateful to see so many people enjoying it. The game was built with your feedback and support over several years in early access. Initially, I planned Necesse to be a much smaller game, but your support has allowed me to keep working on and expanding it. Thank you <3 Even after so many years, I somehow still haven't grown tired of working on it. We've got some stuff cooking for next year as well, and we're obviously still reading all your feedback on how to shape the game going forward. So make sure to share your feedback and leave a review! :) We hope you have a great thanksgiving! Until next time - Fair and the Necesse Team {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/4d4153f1b5d7af0d7227e45321e051edc5e0fcf9.png

Small update with a bunch of fixes as well as translation updates. Some of these fixes required a new game version, so if you're running a server, make sure you update that as well. We're also working on a larger update while doing these smaller fixes :) Changelog: Optimizes and improves memory allocation significantly on dedicated servers. Added indicator of the center region when placing down a settlement flag. Fixed teleporting sometimes not working correctly, especially when the teleport takes a moment to load. Fixed being tier 2 essence recipes using their own essence to convert as well. Fixed Turban being unobtainable and not showing properly in item filter lists.

Fixed Eye of the Void summons not teleporting when too far away. Fixed using chat sometimes not clearing caret cursor. Fixed Katana weapons not getting their second swing cooldown reduced by attack speed. Updated community translations, thank you translators! If you're running a dedicated server and use the -XX:+UseG1GC launch option, I would recommend also adding -XX:+ExplicitGCInvokesConcurrent. I've also added these options to the dedicated server tool launch scripts. You can always access older versions by going the game's properties in Steam and under the "Betas" tab. Thanks for all the feedback and bug reports! <3 Until next time! - Fair

Necesse Version 1.0 Frequently Asked Questions

Can I still use my old characters in Necesse 1.0?

• Yes.

Can I still use my old world in Necesse 1.0?

• With the new world generation in Necesse 1.0, you have to migrate your old world into the new world generation. It essentially means that you'll insert your old islands/settlement into the new world generation. If you'd like to see how this works, our lead developer Mads showcases it live in action in this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70iLS_noXc8&t=87 Do my mods still work with Necesse 1.0?

• Most mods likely won't work on the launch of 1.0, seeing as we've made a lot of changes to the Necesse codebase. Our modders usually get the mods up and running again within a couple of weeks though. Shoutout to our modders :)

Is Necesse going to keep getting updates after version 1.0?

• Yes. We've still got a lot of cool stuff planned and will share a new roadmap soon!

Hey everyone! There's only 24 hours left until Necesse 1.0 goes live at 7PM CEST / 1PM EDT (October 16th). Necesse went into Early Access on Steam nearly 6 years ago. But it was in development long before that. To give you all a little throwback to how Necesse looked 10 years ago, we've got Cool Jonas & Regular Jonas on the scene! When Necesse 1.0 goes live tomorrow, we strongly suggest making a fresh world to feel the full effect of the infinite seamless world generation. But if you have a hard time letting your old world go, then don't worry, you can migrate your old world to be placed in the new seamless world. The journey through Early Access has been incredible. Thank you for being along for the ride, helping make this game into what it is today. We can't wait for you to try out all the new content we've been working on.

Hey everyone! The time has come for the second preset reviews live stream with the devs of Necesse! This Wednesday on September 10th at 8PM CEST, we’ll continue in the same manner as our previous stream and review all the awesome presets you’ve made! As we’re getting closer to the 1.0 release and still have a lot of presets to go, we’ll be a bit more picky in the initial preset selection this time around. The plan for the stream is still to review at least 100ish presets though, so don’t worry, we got content for ya. We’ll also be sharing some news at the end of the stream, so make sure you stick around! You can catch the stream on youtube or twitch. Youtube Twitch If you’re thinking: “Oh no, I can’t watch it at that time, what am I going to do with my life!?” - We got you covered, the stream will be uploaded on the Necesse Youtube afterwards. We'll also be sharing a list with the names of all the people who have had their preset submission accepted on our discord, a day or two after the live stream. If you want to see all the presets that the community have submitted so far, then drop by the Necesse discord and check out the #preset-submissions channel 👍 See you Wednesday folks! - Fair {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/36220393/38a9f53998803a9f93bf42d660753a1075ebc3cd.png

Hey everyone! It’s finally time for the first preset reviews live stream with the developers of Necesse! This Thursday (August 7th) at 8PM CEST, we'll start reviewing all the wonderful presets you guys have submitted over the last month. We’ll be starting with the very first presets submitted back in early July and then move down the list from there. There are a lot of presets to go through and we won’t have time to go through all the presets in a single stream, but I’m hoping we’ll review at least 100 presets! With that said, some presets will also be excluded right off the bat, which are mainly duplicates or very low effort presets for the sake of saving time (sorry 😅) You can catch the stream on youtube or twitch. Youtube Twitch And don’t worry, the stream will be uploaded on youtube afterwards, in case you can’t watch it live. If you want to see all the presets that the community have submitted so far, then drop by the official Necesse discord and check out the #preset-submissions channel 👍 I think that’s all.. Oh yeah! Did I mention that we’re also showcasing the brand new (work in progress) infinite seamless world during the live stream?
