11 bit reveals The Alters Last Variable DLC
When all others choose to leave, Jan Scientist stays behind on the hostile planet he's been trapped on with his alters to pursue what could be a life-defining research opportunity. Because this cannot be conducted alone, it becomes the narrative axis of the newest DLC for The Alters - the personal survival sci-fi game from 11 bit studios that received wide acclaim in 2025. The Alters: Last Variable releases July 13th on PC and console.
A 20-hour expansion introducing new mechanics, an underground base to build, and a refined gameplay loop centred on terraforming parts of the planet into lush, oasis-like biomes, Last Variable will have you commanding a crew of brilliant minds that look like you, but don’t always think and feel like you.
Unravelling the mystery of the Oasis requires specialized analysis from specialized alters - a Geologist, Biologist, Chemist, or Physicist. Yet each Jan has his own view on what science truly means. While you descend into a years-long cryosleep in your underground base, waiting for the planet's scorching sun to retreat, those working in Field Labs don't have that privilege. As they age without that protection, can the vulnerability of time still change them?
The Alters: Last Variable, releasing on July 13th.
