The prison island of SCUM just got a whole lot deadlier—and prettier—with the release of the 1.0 update. Gamepires has unleashed a massive overhaul that transforms the TEC01 reality show into an even harsher survival gauntlet. Buckle up, prisoners; it’s time to fight for Fame Points like never before!
A New Island to Survive
The SCUM 1.0 update redefines the prison island with a complete environmental rework. Updated POIs, lush greenery, a revamped foliage system, and a stunning snow biome shoreline await. Add to that a new wetness system impacting terrain, gear, and visibility, and you’ve got a gritty, immersive atmosphere that’ll test your survival skills.
New Threats and Challenges
Armed NPCs now roam the island with varying gear tiers, making every encounter a gamble in SP, PVE, and PVP modes. Secret bunkers offer safer gearing with keycard access but lower loot, while AB bunkers are scaled back for high-risk, high-reward endgame action. As a general prisoner might say, 'Better pack extra bandages, mate—this ain’t a picnic.'
Gear Up with Modular Vehicles
The return of modular vehicles like the Mariner seaplane, capable of land and water takeoffs, and the combat-ready Tractor brings fresh tactical options. Whether you’re hauling loot or charging into battle, these rides are a game-changer for island domination.
What’s New in SCUM 1.0?
Beyond the island overhaul, this update introduces custom quest creation, weapon upgrades with slick textures and better visibility, and a polished First Time User Experience with tutorials and beginner servers. Server hosting files, a new browser with filters, and a Twitch Drops campaign for exclusive items round out this beast of an update. Check out the official trailer below!
