The developers have also revamped the electrical system, making it more complex and realistic, and have introduced a new endgame to the single-player campaign, challenging players to survive and escape from the depths of Europa.
Barotrauma’s multiplayer mode is a favorite among players, with support for up to 16 players and a traitor mode that randomly assigns players as secret conspirators, complete with their own individual missions like assassination and sabotage.
