Hi everyone!
First, we've released a small update for the Summer DLC and fixed a few bugs:the athlete customization window during the off-season;
an incorrect relay start list at the Summer World Championship;
the finish results in the mass start at the Summer World Championship.
🎬 A brand-new race interface — start lists, finish lists and statistics styled after real biathlon broadcasts.
🌙 A realistic night with artificial lighting — almost like a real evening race.
⛷️ Smoother controls, more realistic physics and reworked weather.
When the snow melts, biathlon doesn't stop — athletes switch to roller skis. Now it's the same in the game: the Summer DLC is out, winter and summer live side by side in one menu, and NGL Biathlon 2026 becomes a true all-season experience.
What Summer adds:Summer disciplines: roller ski races on asphalt tracks
Summer versions of every familiar track
World Championship and Mini-Tour with new summer disciplines
New summer gear: roller skis and helmets
Switch between winter and summer at any time — all athletes, settings, and saves stay in place
When the snow melts, biathlon doesn't stop — athletes switch to roller skis. Now your game does the same: the Summer DLC adds a full summer season to NGL Biathlon 2026. Winter and summer in a single menu — the game becomes all-season.
What's inside:
- Summer disciplines: roller ski races on paved tracks
- Summer versions of every familiar venue
- Summer World Championship and Mini-Tour with new disciplines

The Summer DLC releases on June 5. Add it to your wishlist so you don't miss the launch and get notified on release day.
The biathlon season has ended, and the game has been updated once again!
The off-season patch includes the following new features:
New NGL Club section A separate section has been added to the game for the Hall of Fame of our Patreon and Boosty sponsors. There you can view club members and their ranks.
New relay race bibs Relay bibs are now designed in a realistic style: each leg has its own color. 1st leg is red, 2nd leg is green, 3rd leg is yellow, and 4th leg is blue.
Fixed display of in-game scoreboards on Mac We fixed an issue where in-game scoreboards could display incorrectly on macOS.
Watching races in your career If your player doesn't qualify for the pursuit or mass start in your career, in addition to skipping the race, you can also watch it (as with a relay).
Some bugs have been fixed We regularly review all your messages across all platforms and try to fix them as much as possible.
Thank you for staying with us!
We know that many have been waiting for this for a long time.
The Mac version of NGL Biathlon is here. The game now runs on Apple computers with macOS 10.15 (Catalina) or later.
Game updated! Here's what we added and improved:
Olympic visuals
- Olympic Games now have updated visuals: start and finish area, start and finish banners, checkpoints and shooting range banners - all in Olympic style.
- Olympic bibs added (chest numbers for athletes).
- The award ceremony uses an Olympic podium (separate model and colours per track)
- Olympic rings are placed along the tracks as scenery.
Saves
- Save import and export: you can export a save to a ZIP file (e.g. to move it to another PC or back it up) and import a save from a ZIP directly in the game - no digging through folders.
Main menu
- New main menu posters: they cycle in a slideshow with a smooth transition
Career
- New option in settings: "Sochi in career". When enabled - Sochi is in the career calendar (World Cup), when disabled - it's not. For those who want to choose whether this venue appears in career.
