Developer and publisher PikPok have brought Update 16 to, Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days. This newest update introduces recruitable dogs to survivors’ shelters, alongside weapon repair and durability rebalancing, and an overhaul to shelter defenses.

Survivors can recruit dogs by encountering them when scavenging locations around Walton. They can join shelters and provide a morale boost to survivors, as well as other potential benefits.

Update 16 also introduces weapon repair mechanics and rebalanced durability, alongside overhauled shelter defenses.

Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days is currently in Early Access, with the game’s full 1.0 release planned for March 2027 on Steam, the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch 2, and GeForce NOW.

Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days is a side-scrolling shelter survival game that transports players to Texas, 1980 at the height of summer during the outbreak of a deadly apocalypse. Lead a group of desperate survivors from shelter to shelter as they attempt to escape Walton City before it is overrun. Scavenge, craft, fight, and plan your next move — and try not to lose yourself along the way.
