Patching is in progress!

Today we’ve launched a free major update to all players on all platforms.
This update comes shipped with Matka Meist Underground - a brand new huge map. Originally, we planned on this being a part of Matka, but the map was so huge we decided to make it a standalone.
Additionally, a new boss has been added into the pool - The Collector - alongside his new XM250 LMG.
Collector's Awakening comes packed with new content - boss weapon and armor, flashbangs, bullet visual changes, new spawn points, tons of bug fixes - and most importantly, the coffee machine returns.

And for PCVR players - this update comes with the brand new streamer cam.

Jump in now. The Collector awaits.

Patching is in progress, consider restarting Steam after patching.

• For all of you already in the game and curious to learn more, head over to the Independence Edition page.
  
• For new players just getting started - the Independence Starter Pack Bundle is currently the best deal available if you're all in on Tabor.

The Independence Starter Edition includes everything from the original Starter Pack bundle, but comes with two additional perks; you will automatically receive all existing and future DLCs for free! Yep that's right. All of them. Free. If you’re already considering going all-in on Tabor, this is already the best deal available, and there are more Weapon packs to come. It also includes an in-game arm patch only available to the Independence Edition owners. This is the Ultimate Deluxe Edition of the game and, may we suggest, perhaps an excellent gift to a friend you want to bring with you on a raid?

A special note to previous Founding Fathers Edition owners - You can purchase the Independence Edition, but you will technically already own Independence Edition content, including the new in-game arm patch automatically with the Founding Fathers Edition. You will not however be able to swap them out just yet. This feature will come in a future update.

Just as with the original Founding Fathers Edition - the Independence Edition is time-limited and will only be available until March 9, 2024 at 10AM PT.

For anyone new to Ghosts of Tabor, here's a refresher on all available versions of Ghosts of Tabor:

Other than the main base game that starts at $24.99, you can also opt to get a discounted offer with two different varieties of the Starter Pack Bundles. Now, Starter Packs, as the name suggests, help you get started in the game with a basic kit of gear and some general consumable items, it will basically make the initial raids less challenging, considering you will start as a fresh recruit with nothing to your name. Remember, Ghosts of Tabor is all about jumping into a raid, scavenging to find valuable loot, and surviving to extraction. Additionally, if you manage to get killed while on your mission, you will lose all your gear to other players. Starter Packs will grant you a starting set of gear, items, and currency so that you can have a somewhat easier starting experience, but also remember that the general rules apply - you can lose items and gear if you die during a raid. Ghosts of Tabor, like similar games in the genre, also features something called "progression wipes" every now and then.

As Ghosts of Tabor is still in active development and will continue to have additions and updates that sometimes require large systemic changes to the game, periodically wiping progression - such as your player level, items, and currency - helps implement these updates more smoothly. Due to the nature of the game, progression wipes also help keep the game feeling fresh over time. Here's the important part, Starter Packs persist through progression wipes, your starter set will always be waiting for you after a wipe!

The Starter Pack Bundle is a permanent bundle that includes the base game and the Starter Nuclear Night Edition. Save 11% from buying these individually. The Independence Starter Pack Bundle is an exclusive and time-limited bundle that will only be offered for a limited time. Getting the bundle will save you 16% as opposed to the single items bought alone.


While the basics are already laid out above, we'd just like to add that should you want to start with the base game and then realize later that a Starter Edition actually sounds like something you'd fancy? No problem! You can purchase any of the three normal Editions at any point as a DLC.

A few things to note:

• The Independence Edition is still time-limited, it'll only be available until March 9, 2024 at 10AM PT., so don't snooze on this excellent offer!
  
• The Independence Edition includes the highest normal tier Edition, Nuclear Night.
  
• Higher-tier Editions include everything in the lesser ones, but they do not stack.
  
• There's unfortunately no mechanic for upgrading between the Editions. If you at a later stage would like to get a different, higher-tier Edition, you will have to purchase it at the full price. The same goes for the Independence Edition should you already own any of the previous Editions since before.
  
• Repeating the special note to previous Founding Fathers Edition owners - You can purchase the Independence Edition, but you will technically already own Independence Edition content, and the new in-game arm patch automatically with the Founding Fathers Edition. You will not however be able to swap them out just yet. This feature will come in a future update.

Our Weapon Packs are optional items to bring some flair to your raids. How about some weapons crafted by Taran Tactical, as seen in JW3? Or maybe you'd like to proudly display some Kawaii flare with a pink backpack? The choice is yours!
All of these current and future Weapon Packs are included with the time-limited Independence Edition.


We hope this clarifies the different Editions and Bundles so you can decide if a any of them are relevant to you! Let us know if you have any questions in the comments below.

• Added wipe reward (Golden Mac 11) -note that if you are not FF, you will receive it next week
  
• Added Nuclear night special weapon
  
• Added Founding father special weapon
  
• Fixed placeholder text in DLC prices
  
• Fixed a crash when adding and removing missions
  
• Fixed a crash when going between tabs in contacts
  
• Fixed a crash when moving the sliders (Screen effect height and width) during the profile creation

Ghosts of Tabor will be down for a 6-12 hour window that started 1 pm ET today where we also will make sure everything's spiffy clean for the 8th. This also means - WIPE INC.

Last week, we teased the brand new map update coming soon in a free update - Matka Miest Underground. Check out the trailer below and a huge thanks to RuffTalk VR Showcase for having us!

We’ve seen some discussions on the price increase and just wanted to provide some clarity. The price increase to the base game and DLC is the intended release price of the game, meaning that when we are ready to take Ghosts of Tabor out of Early Access, the price will not increase again; as titles leaving Early Access typically do. With our App Lab graduation to the full Meta Quest Store – we wanted to keep price parity across all platforms we are currently available on – so players can choose which platform they want to play on without price being a factor.

We also want to reiterate that more (free) updates are planned and scheduled throughout 2024, we’re far from done.

And speaking of parity - celebrating the launch on Meta Quest Store, we’re launching the all new and time-limited Independence Edition Upgrade on both platforms and exclusively available 30 days only starting February 8.

Due to how the different platforms allow us to preview products, you can find the Independence Edition Starter Pack and wishlist here waiting for its release on February 8, 10 am PT, The Base game and Independence Bundle will also be available on Steam starting at the same time to align the platform offers.

We’ve heard the feedback from many users who were sad to miss the original Founding Fathers Edition, which was only available 30 days from Early Access launch. Our Founding Fathers will always be close to our hearts as the early supporters of the game, and after an open discussion with the Founding community on Discord, we decided to launch the Independence Edition for this occasion.

The Independence Edition will:

• Only be available for 30 days starting February 8, 2024
  
• Will grant all current and future DLCs for free! This is the current Ultimate Deluxe Edition of the game.
  
• Will grant its buyer an in-game arm patch, “Liberty Bell” to recognize the support to the game

A special note to our Founding Fathers, you can purchase the Independence Edition should you so wish, but all content is already included in Founding Fathers Edition as the highest-tier supporter of the game. You will in a future update have access to both arm patches, and be able to swap them out.
