Not really, it's exactly opposite:

"It has been exactly one year since the release of SlavicPunk: Oldtimer on PC platforms, and the development team at Red Square Games has decided to celebrate this anniversary by publishing a very important update for the game. This update addresses issues reported by the players and also includes a significant enhancement: the game engine has been upgraded from Unreal Engine 4 to version 5.3. This upgrade has improved the quality of the project and will enable further development of this Slavic universe.

As a team, we are hopeful that this update will breathe new life into the game, generate stronger interest from the gaming community, and lead to a reassessment of the product with an increase in positive reviews. We have put a lot of work into this project and want players to see us as developers who do not abandon their work but are committed to its future growth.

In addition to the game update, which will be released on June 27, 2024, we have another surprise: the game will be available for purchase on Steam at a 60% discounted price.

Important information:
We regret to inform you that due to the engine update and work on the save system, it will not be possible to load existing game progress from saved files. Unfortunately, the updated technologies require starting the game anew.

We understand that this may be frustrating and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. However, we want to assure you that these changes are necessary to improve performance, stability, and add new features that will ultimately enrich the gaming experience.

We thank you in advance for your understanding and support in this matter.

Below are the detailed information about the Anniversary Update:
