Killer Bean

Killer Bean entered Steam Early Access on June 8, 2026 as an explicitly unfinished product from a solo indie developer. Development has been highly active since launch, with the developer shipping frequent patches, feature updates, and two major content drops in just under four months. On August 15, 2026, the developer shipped Multiplayer PvP with Free For All and Team Deathmatch across 10 maps, noting that more maps, guns, cosmetics, a level unlock system, and 3rd-person multiplayer modes were still to come. On October 4, 2026 — today's date — the developer published a preview of the Open World City (City v2), a large new area described as representing half to one-third of a planned new island. The post details what is already in this preview build (police, gangs, vehicles, carjacking, pedestrian AI) and lays out a substantial roadmap of what is still coming: a new campaign with randomly generated missions and 4 rival mob bosses, building interiors, shops, a player apartment system with stat upgrades, a gym with leveling finisher moves, and possible online co-op. The developer explicitly frames this as "just the beginning." Patch activity has been consistent throughout Early Access, with feature patches as recently as September 17, 2026. The game is clearly mid-development with significant content still being built out across both its single-player city campaign and multiplayer modes.
