Apr 17, 2023 Launcher Update
Hello everyone - today's update is just a minor update that shouldn't affect gameplay in any way! As Xenonauts 2 will be launching into Early Access in the next couple of months, we've just replaced the old development update RSS feed in the Xenonauts launcher with an image that links through to the Steam page for the sequel (in case anyone that enjoyed the first game was not aware that the sequel

Aug 8, 2016 Xenonauts V1.65 Stable Released!
This is a brief update, as we've pushed V1.65 from the Experimental branch to the Stable branch. I've post the patch notes from V1.65 Experimental below so you can see what has changed, but the main reason we've pushed this update to Stable is that there's a Windows 10 specific bug that is fixed by V1.65 which is affecting some of our users. We'll be monitoring V1.65 to see if it causes any additi

Jan 19, 2016 Xenonauts V1.65 Experimental Released!
We've released a new version of Xenonauts for Windows on the Experimental branch, V1.65. It contains some gameplay updates, but it will need some testing to see if it is stable before being rolled out to the default Stable branch for all Steam users, so if anyone can test it that would be appreciated. To access the Experimental branch, please follow the instructions here: http://www.goldhawkintera

Jan 10, 2016 Further fixes to Mac / Linux builds!
We've had another patch for the Mac / Linux versions of Xenonauts available on the Experimental branch over the festive season, and it appears to fix some compatibility issues that some users have been experiencing without introducing any additional bugs. We have therefore now released it to the main default Steam branch. There's no changes to the gameplay mechanics so there are no changes to the

Oct 6, 2015 Mac / Linux Builds Updated
Just a quick note to say there's been a further patch to the Mac / Linux native builds that were released last week, bringing them up to V1.60. This should address some bugs that were only affecting the Mac / Linux builds, the most annoying being the crashes / freezes during the alien turn that were making the game unplayable for some. Initial reports seem to suggest that the majority of these iss

Sep 29, 2015 Native Mac / Linux Builds!
Xenonauts now has native Mac and Linux ports available rather than the WINE-wrapped Windows version that we previously used as "ports" for these platforms. These have been produced by a porter who works with the Humble Bundle team and are not directly being produced by us. This is obviously great news and we've just made these versions available on Steam (the WINE builds are available in the Legac

Apr 13, 2015 Xenonauts V1.59 Released!
We've just released Xenonauts V1.59 for PC and Linux, and will be releasing the Mac version shortly if no bugs appear in the next 24-48 hours. V1.59 is the revised version of V1.58, which we rolled back a week or so ago because we were concerned about stability issues. V1.58 included several fixes over V1.56, the biggest of which was a fix for an annoying AI hang. Thanks for your patience!
