Update #100 - 10 year anniversary - December 5th, 2025

Nuclear Throne launched 10 years ago, can you believe it?

And today is the day we bring you Update 100!

The gang got back together, with Jan Willem Nijman, Paul Veer, Jukio Kallio, Joonas Turner, and Justin Chan, as well as YellowAfterlife (and a secret little feature for Doseone) to bring you what might just be the biggest and baddest update in Nuclear Throne History! At least it's the one that took the longest!

Now here's what you've been waiting for, the changelog:

• A thirteenth character: Cuz is not afraid to show his emotions, with a Cry ability that tears through enemies and projectiles alike. Oh, and he gets to carry 3 (three) weapons.

• Custom mode, allowing you to modify Nuclear Throne to your liking, create unique runs and challenges, and to get to know the game better than ever before.

• New unlockable C-skins for every character (and new achievements for these).

• Localization for 15 languages: English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Polish, BR Portuguese, Russian, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Ukrainian, Turkish, & Dutch. Tell your friends around the world!

• The game now supports up to 4 player local co-op.

• Co-op reviving has been reworked and now works with Revive Chests.

• Co-op Ultra Mutations have been slightly changed to work with 2-4 characters.

• Reworked and re-organized the settings menu.

• The game now runs at 60+ fps (but 30 is still supported for the true believers).

• Widescreen support.

• New side art and a new cursor.

• Open Mind has been buffed a little.

• Mutations and weapons in the HUD now show information on hover.

• The GO button in the menu has been replaced with a cool little icon. This was done to save money on localization so that we could fit Cuz in!

• We are now Steam Deck™ Verified.

• Updates Mac build to run on 64-bit devices including Apple Silicon.

• Gamepads should work better, especially on computers with a bunch of them connected.

• Community leaderboards site Thronebutt has gotten a beautiful overhaul!

• Many more little fixes and quality of life changes that you might already know from the beta branch. Full changelog can be found here.

• We forgot to add any secrets. Sorry.

Oh, and don't forget to get your hands on a Y.V. plushie!

We sincerely hope you love this update as much as we loved making it! Happy Throning.
