It took us a bit more time than expected, just over a month to be exact😅, but here it is - the latest update for Songs of Rats and our final free update to the game! And it's a FAT one 🐀, as it brings not two (as announced initially), but THREE new campaigns! We hope this will sweeten the delay a little bit.

We've been listening to your feedback carefully, and with these campaigns, we aimed to give you more choices and more freedom in how you shape your path and story in The Wreckage!

🔽 Scroll down for all the important info and details on the new content.🔽

🧑‍💻 So here are all the tasty details! 👍

In this new campaign, there's no set path and no clear goal - just you, a map of interconnected locations, and the freedom to go wherever you want. Each spot leads to 2–3 others, letting you carve your own route through the world.

Along the way, you’ll be able to interact with the environment, meet other travelers, and hear rumors, some of which may point you toward something bigger. But don’t expect the game to spell it out.

Behind the scenes, your choices are quietly tracked. Depending on what you’ve done, certain locations may trigger hidden endings instead of the usual scenes. For example:

• Visit 10 different locations before reaching the Keykeeper’s Den? You might find something waiting.

• Complete three cult initiations? A spiritual path could open.

• Earn the respect of key factions? The Council might call on you.

You won’t see progress bars or quest markers — just consequences. What you find at the end depends entirely on how you’ve played.

This campaign introduces a new core mechanic: the Clan Panel. As you explore and scavenge, you’ll collect scrap - and instead of hoarding it, you’ll invest it directly into your clan’s growth.

You can upgrade three key traits: Body, Mind, and Spirit. Each point you unlock makes the next one more expensive, so you’ll need to choose your path carefully. Once you’ve maxed out every trait available, the final scene triggers - but what happens next depends entirely on how you developed your clan.

There are four possible endings, based on your strongest stat:

• Body-dominant

• Spirit-dominant

• Mind-dominant

• Balanced

There’s no right or wrong answer - just the story of the clan you chose to build.

You’ve waited your whole life for this moment - just like everyone else in your group. Now, finally, your trial has come.

The Council has spoken: before you can become a caravanner, before you’re trusted with trade routes and responsibility, you must bring back something of value, something ancient, something real.

If you succeed, there's a chance you'll be allowed to travel The Wreckage not alone, but alongside the people who matter most, your friends: Aron, Freya, and Hogor. You've trained with them, fought beside them, and dreamed of this moment together.

In this campaign your choices will determine whether you earn your place - and whether you and your friends live to see the road ahead.

Of course that's not all! We’ve also fixed a few pesky bugs 🐛 here and there and added some new achievements you can unlock by completing the latest campaigns🏆. We really hope you’ll enjoy all the new content - it brings many more hours of gameplay, and we can't wait to hear your thoughts on these new experiences!
