We’re ecstatic to bring you an enormous update to The Light Brigade on Meta Quest 2 + Pro. This isn’t just an ordinary bugfix/QOL patch —it’s packed with new content to enrich your roguelike gaming experience and add deeper replayability to each new run.
Since launch, our dev team has listened to your feedback and now we present to you the Memories of War Update, which contains new playable soldier classes, weapons, items, game modes, and new hand-crafted environments that we believe you’re going to absolutely enjoy. Also a bunch of improvements and critical fixes (for save files being lost when running out of battery during gameplay). Let’s dive in.
