After taking longer than expected to fine-tune the update, Lethal Company creator Zeekers put out the v60 update for the friend-based survival game in the wee hours of the morning on Saturday. Teased several times in the past as the “best update of all time,” Zeekers took several extra weeks working on the update to make sure its new monster was as it should be when released. That update and the new monster are out now for players to experience themselves alongside other changes and additions like a new interior area for players to explore when hunting for scraps.
If you’re a Lethal Company player who’s not big on spoilers and would prefer to find out about the surprises of the v60 update alongside your friends without knowing anything beforehand, you can download the update now and get started right away. But for those who’d rather know what they’re getting themselves into, Zeekers shared a short list of patch notes detailing what’s new with the highlight being a new monster.

But what’s a Bog Crawler in Lethal Company? Players still aren’t quite sure right now with people trying to figure out whether that’s code for another monster or not, but monsters it might’ve been like the Thumper are still present in the game, so until some clarification is offered, the community is unsure.
If you want to see the new monster, the Maneater, you can catch clips online of people who’ve already encountered it.
