BULKHEAD and Team17 have announced that Season 2 of their 100-player tactical shooter, WARDOGS, will launch on October 15. This update follows the game's successful Steam Early Access debut in September, which saw over three million copies sold and a peak of 425,000 concurrent players.
The season introduces significant content, including four new weapons like the TCX-SPR Assault Rifle and PP-19 Bizon SMG, alongside four vehicles such as the T-72B3 tank. Players can also utilize three new buildables, including an MG Nest, to fortify positions. Additionally, a new rain weather preset will impact visibility and sound, while an experimental wager system allows players to stake in-game cash on their own performance.
BULKHEAD is implementing extensive gameplay changes, including combat balancing for weapon damage and recoil. Faction balance is a priority, with specific incentives and spawn adjustments for the Lonestar faction to address win-rate disparities. CEO Joe Brammer noted that these adjustments are based on community feedback and data gathered since the initial launch.
Beyond new content, the update includes refinements to squad coordination, controller responsiveness, and vehicle handling. Further performance optimizations and bug fixes are included, with full patch notes expected next week. The game remains in Early Access, with developers planning ongoing updates throughout the season.
