Entropy : Zero 2 is one year old today. WOW! Tempus Fugit.
A day hasn't gone by where we haven't been floored with the positive reception and overall response to EZ2. We're still extremely proud of what we were able to accomplish with the game, and we're so happy that many of you are still enjoying it.
As of today, 268,027 people have downloaded and played Entropy : Zero 2. That's an insane number! We have also managed to accrue 17,683 positive Steam reviews. We were also listed as the 3rd top release on Steam in 2022 (SteamDB stats)
So, yeah. We're pretty chuffed to say the least!
In case you missed it, a few weeks ago we streamed a retrospective discussion. It was super fun and is filled with info regarding the development of Entropy : Zero 2. You can check it out here:
We're planning to do another one of these streams real soon. We'll let you know when we have a date!
Prior to this anniversary, 1up kindly went and grabbed some EZ2 Workshop submissions for us to feature in this article. We want to bring these to your attention as they're all great and we've had fun with them (It is not a comprehensive list so please do not feel left out if your map was not included.) Please consider checking out:

1up also mentioned:
I tried to limit myself to one map per creator, although I must make two exceptions for two honorable mentions by Gildun, creator of Mission: Home Invasion.
De_Port is an Entropy : Zero 2 version of the Counter-Strike: Source map of the same name that works as a randomized singleplayer combat sandbox.

Husk Underground is a proof of concept map for the Husk NPCs that were added in the 1.6 update. As of writing, it will require users to opt into the upcoming branch in order to work. It is a great showcase of the NPC.

I would also like to bring your attention to the fan art that we have received. Tons of art has been created in appreciation of Entropy : Zero 2

We have tons of it! You can check out more submissions over on Lambda Generation.
It has been a wild year for us - a different year. For most of us, our lives have undergone some dramatic changes since the years of development prior. We already look back with fond nostalgia, on days of production, late night meetings and story draft discussions.
As always, we are all so grateful for your support and interest in Entropy : Zero 2. Thank you.
This is truly THE best half life mod i have played, and i do not say this lightly since I'm a huge valve fan and have played A TON of mods. Keep up the great work
Cannot believe it’s already been a year! Feels like yesterday I’ve been to Arbeit and witnessed all sorts of weird tech in the underground. Whatever you guys are planning for the future, we’ll be waiting with excitement! Thank you for this great experience of a mod!
