Wishlists skyrocketed by 4 times in the month leading up to release. Born from an unexpected response, the update adds infinitely playable “hack-and-slash elements” and even more “puzzles.” A 15-day 10% off sale will also begin with this update.
Indie game studio Studio RELIER (operated by Solmia Inc.) is thrilled to announce a major update for the sci-fi puzzle incremental game “DEBRISVERSE,” currently available on Steam, starting Thursday, September 24, 2026. This update includes expansive end-game content and new features.
Following an unexpected surge in popularity—with wishlists quadrupling in just the month prior to launch—we made the sudden decision to create this update merely 3 days before the game’s release. Since launch, we have continued to make rapid improvements based on user feedback, earning a 92% “Positive” rating in Steam reviews to date.
To celebrate the release of this update, a special 15-day sale offering a 10% discount will run from September 24, 2026, through the end of the Steam Autumn Sale.
Overview of the “Major Update” Responding to User Voices
This update was rapidly developed and implemented in response to the pre-launch buzz and post-launch user feedback. Answering calls for “more immersion in this world” and “more replay value,” we have significantly expanded the post-clear end-game content.
1. New Mode: Survival “Mega Debris Rush” to Deal with Approaching Bosses
Unlike normal space debris disposal, we have implemented a rush mode where powerful “Mega Debris” (bosses) attack continuously in waves. It offers a high-difficulty survival experience that challenges you to see how long you can survive by pushing efficiency and upgrades to the absolute limit.

2. New System: Collection and Customization of “Cores,” an Infinitely Playable Hack-and-Slash Element
We have added a hack-and-slash element where defeating Mega Debris drops an unknown substance called “Cores.” Random stats are assigned to Cores, and by collecting, enhancing, and combining them, players can build their own unique “Strongest Core.”

3. Additional Story: The Highly Praised “Unsettling Puzzle Elements” (That Cannot Be Discussed Without Spoilers) Deepen Further
The “unsettling puzzle solving with a dystopian feel,” highly evaluated by players in the main game, is alive and well in the end-game content. A secret is hidden within the dropped “Cores,” and unraveling this information unfolds an additional scenario that approaches the deeper darkness of a mega-corporation and this universe.

4. Other Additional Elements
- Increase base stats and obtain permanent enhancements through Prestige.
- Further strengthen attack power by breaking tool limits.
- Added a title system for hardcore users. There are also hidden titles we hope sci-fi fans will discover!

What is the Sci-Fi Puzzle Incremental “DEBRISVERSE”?
It is an incremental game where you aim to pay off a $100 million debt while disposing of space debris. If all goes well, you can pay off the debt and reach the ending in about an hour of play. However, after that, the story takes a turn. It changes from a simple debt repayment game into a scenario structure where you uncover the secrets and conspiracies of the massive corporation dominating this dystopian world. Why did the protagonist take on this debt? What is the hidden darkness of the space development company B.R.I.S? All mysteries will be revealed across 7 endings.
Developer Comment / Background of the Decision to Update 3 Days Before Release
Initially, there were no plans for a major update for this title, and we intended to start production on our next game immediately after release. However, in response to wishlists quadrupling from 300 to 1,200 in the month before release, we suddenly decided to create this update 3 days prior to launch.
This update is a token of our gratitude to the community that helped grow the game alongside us. With only 12 wishlists when the store page was first published, the game is now being played by over 1,000 people. There is nothing happier than seeing people enjoy the content I created, and we plan to continue updates in the future so you can enjoy “DEBRISVERSE” for a long time to come.
