Serious Sam 4 gives modding tools to players with a new update
Overnight Croteam announced that Serious Sam 4 and for some reason, Serious Sam 2 both got updates, with the more recent title, now getting mod support.
The official modding tools for Serious Sam 4 are available now on Steam, and are followed by full Steam Workshop integration. The new version of the Serious Editor comes with numerous improvements and new tech features such as a brand new terrain editor, improved battle systems, vehicle support, and upgraded scripting tools. All of this combined provides the modders with everything they need to insert a piece of their vision into Serious Sam 4.
“Modders have always been the backbone of our community, expanding Serious Sam games with crazy modifications of all shapes and sizes. Some of the total conversion mods we have played throughout the years were absolutely impressive, and have kept our games alive for years,” said Davor Hunski, Serious Sam 4 project lead and CCO at Croteam. “We can’t wait to see what the modding community has in store for Serious Sam 4.”
Below is just on example of what the modding tools will allow for you to do, though I would get this one asap, if you want it, as it will likely get pulled for copyright infringement.
If that was not enough, in celebration of 20 years of Serious Sam, along with the huge Serious Sam 4 update, Croteam has published a new update to Serious Sam 2 (2005). Created by one of the stand-out Serious Sam 2 modders, and long-time Croteam members in Nathan Brown, this update delivers a slew of gameplay improvements, as well as 12 previously unreleased multiplayer maps.
You can get more details on the official Steam page for the game.
