News The Forever Winter Gets Co-Op-Only Weapon in Latest Update The new weapon in The Forever Winter can only be used if there are three players heading out into a region for a mission. Posted By Joelle Daniels | On 18th, Apr. 2025 Developer Fun Dog Studios has announced a major update for its PvE co-op extraction shooter The Forever Winter. The update, dubbed Nosebleeds, is out now, and features a host of new content, including a new weapon specially designed to be used while playing co-op. Along with this, there is also a new quest giver that will allow players to acquire parts to make the new weapon. The weapon is a Railgun, which can only be carried into missions in parts. Players then have to work together to assemble the Railgun in the field, after which the gun can no longer be disassembled. Once placed, a player will have to man the weapon to aim and fire. It is stated to be powerful enough to take out a tank in a single hit, and can even stun some of the largest enemies in the game. It is worth noting that the Railgun can only be used when a party of three players are heading into a mission together. A single player cannot carry all of the parts required to assemble it in the field. Check out the trailer showcasing the new weapon below. Along with this, The Forever Winter also got a host of other improvements and bug fixes. This includes a new Weapon-part crafting terminal in the Innards, a clean up of collision data in various maps, fixes to the patrol logic of the Medium Mech, improvements to kill-quest enemies, and improvements to drones and choppers. Check out the full patch notes below. The last major update for The Forever Winter was released back in March. Along with bug fixes, the update brought with it a complete revamp to the game’s unique water mechanics. Dubbed Water 3.0, the mechanic was changed into no longer being a constantly-draining resource. Rather, the update turned it into a currency that could be spent to get access to various entry points across different regions.
