The latest patch for Surviving the Aftermath: New Alliances is now available on PC. This update might make the completionists happy as it adds 11 new achievements to the game.
There are five new achievements for the base game and another six for those who own the New Alliances expansion. One of the most notable new achievements is “Doomsday is Canceled,” which requires players to complete the Doomsday Bunker Project.
The Doomsday Bunker is the ultimate goal in Surviving the Aftermath and it can be completed by finishing the main questline. This structure is capable of protecting the colony against most catastrophes.
The latest update also implements a lot of improvements. For instance, the performance of the build menu has improved dramatically. Besides that, it is now possible to overwrite a save just by double-clicking on an existing one.
Here are the other changes:
- Choo-choo!: Escape the harsh winter by fixing the train in Cold Rush.
