Hello Site-02. We hope you are enjoying the Anniversary update.

After a much-needed break for our staff, we have just released a small patch with fixes and adjustments to the main gameplay features for the last seven days of its duration.

Thank you all for your continued support. We’re excited to share what we have in store for you in 2026.

• The Tape Player item is now more common. The base chance is now 30% (from 20%), incrementing by 20% for each round it is not selected to appear (from 15%).
  
• The Tape Player item can now be granted every two minutes until used (from three).
  
• SCP-173 now gains only 100 Hume Shield when killing Stained SCP-1509 instances.
  
• Spawn chances for SCP-559 and SCP-956 to appear in a round is now 50% (from 30%).
  
• Militants can now access the SCP-2536 gift ‘Buddy in a Box’.
  
• SCP-3114 can now spawn during Christmas.
  
• SCP-106’s Pocket Dimension’s corrosion will now be applied to users who change their role within the dimension.

• Fixed weaponry tier gifts giving the incorrect weapons at the incorrect times.
  
• Fixed SCP-1344 not properly applying the damage over time effect from the Severed Eyes status when being forced to drop it.
  
• Fixed Stained status effect’s walking sound still playing even if SilentWalk is active.
  
• Removed the `PrefabLoader` script as it was unused.
  
• Added `InventoryExtensions.OnInventoryDropped` event, invoked after the `InventoryExtensions.ServerDropEverything` extension method is called.
  
• `PocketCorroding` intensities above ‘106’ (we’re so original) will no longer teleport players.

See you in the dark.

Attention Site-02, we have just released this year’s Anniversary/Holiday update.

We’ve included some minor tweaks from last year’s holiday update, including new decorations across the facility, gifts for SCPs, new SCP-1507 (flamingo) variants, and more.

The Christmas tree is back this year. After taking pity on the contained SCP cast, the anomalies have found themselves on the nice list this year, and the tree has some presents for them too. Everyone gets to celebrate with gifts this year!

There have also been some minor changes to its available loot pool, including a new special item for humans. Keep an eye out for it! evil :(

The flamingos are back this year. Having been locked up for twelve months, they're stronger and feistier than ever. Expect to see them decking the halls with your blood and guts.

Alongside some adjustments to the flamingos this year, we’ve added new militant flamingos and variants for zombified flamingos. Each team has their own unique SCP-1507 variant! Consider utilising SCP-1509 (‘The Blade of Rebirth’) against these ferocious lawn-dominating beasts.

The Piñata and cake have also made their return. The Piñata is more aggressive than ever, a result of the new black candy being available within the facility. Celebrate the new year by turning the clock back to when you were a child.

• A new ‘Mute Game Sounds’ option is now available when you are a spectator.
  
• Updated and reformatted all F1 class descriptions.
  
• Added a new room to the Heavy Containment Zone — ‘Ramp Room’.
  
• SCP-127 now gets halved progression points when dealing damage to Hume Shield or SCP-049-2 instances.
  
• SCP-127 no longer gets a progression kill bonus from SCP-049-2 instances.
  
• SCP-127 users can no longer sprint while aiming down sights.
  
• Added ‘tps’ command to the Remote Admin menu, printing current and max server ticks per second.
  
• Fixed some abusable spots and missing collisions in some rooms in the Heavy Containment Zone.

Thank you all for another wonderful year. We’ve got big plans in the works for 2026. We can’t wait to show them off to you.

See you in the dark,
- Northwood Studios
