A major technical patch arrives April 22 as the studio works to address the poor reception from press and players.

Developer Liquid Swords has published a post-launch roadmap for Samson, the action-adventure title that launched on April 8 to widespread criticism over its technical state, limited content, and underdeveloped systems. The first significant update is scheduled for April 22, targeting technical issues alongside improvements to the combat system, an expanded vehicle roster, damage balancing, and performance optimization.

Two smaller updates follow on April 29 and May 6; a third minor patch is also in preparation but has no confirmed release window yet. A content-focused update emphasizing combat mechanics is planned for mid-May, with a similar patch targeting the game's chase systems coming in June.
Console versions of Samson are slated for fall 2026, though no specific date has been announced. The game launched to heavy criticism from both critics and the community, who flagged technical instability, a lack of content, and a general sense of incompleteness across the experience.
