The anticipation for Moonshot Games’ Wildgate grows even more as the launch for the new competitive FPS is soon. Scheduled for July 22nd, the California-based developer is adding the finishing touches the days closer to release. This week, it was revealed that there will be a steady flow of post-launch content scheduled for Wildgate that will be administered in three separate helpings:

Biweekly Updates – These updates will be focused on two very specific systems: 1) activating new Reach anomalies and 2) rotating items in our in-game shop (more on those below). We may also occasionally piggy-back a few server-side hotfixes onto these updates, but that’s likely to be the exception vs. the rule.

Mid-Season Patches – These patches will have no set content or cadence. Their primary purpose will be to implement more responsive changes to the game—based on player feedback, game telemetry, or some combination of both—at a more flexible pace. These patches are likely to include balance updates, performance optimizations, bug fixes, and/or other quality of life improvements. 

Seasonal Content Drops – Narrative Arcs; New Content; Adventure Passes. These seasonal content drops will be more substantial and include a variety of changes to further your space crime sprees in new and interesting ways. Seasonal drops are when we are most likely to implement new gameplay systems and features. You can also expect these to include more balance updates, bug fixes, and quality of life improvements.

“Wildgate is a premium game, but our team is committed to providing value well beyond the point of purchase. To us, this means two things: 1) ensuring that the game feels fun and engaging at launch, providing hours of entertainment on its own, and 2) that we offer a reliable stream of free post-launch content that will evolve your experience and enjoyment over time,” Moonshot Games writes in the blog post.

“Before the end of 2025, we will release our first seasonal content drop for Wildgate. Season 01 will bring its own themed content, including a new prospector, new weapon, and new piece of equipment—all of which can be unlocked as part of the base Adventure pass track. (There will also be a variety of new cosmetics you can unlock as part of the pass, across both the base and paid tracks.)”

It continues: “To complement the theme and storyline, this first season will introduce changes to the Reach—including a new puzzle mechanic—as well as more anomalies for you to discover as part of our bi-weekly updates.” Launch is also expected to be packed with improvements including balancing updates, quality of life changes, scrap crates, an in-game cosmetic shop, and more player card customization & cosmetic unlocks.
