Unturned 3.26.3.1 Patch Notes (5th May 2026)

Unturned's latest patch separates safezone damage options and clears up a handful of left-handed character bugs that have been bugging players.

A small but focused patch landed for Unturned today. 3.26.3.1 splits the previously combined "No Incoming Damage" and "No Weapons" safezone options into two separate toggles, which is a useful change for server operators who want to stop players hiding in safezones without completely disabling combat in the area. That one tweak alone should cut down on a frustrating exploit that's been a headache for PvP servers.

On the performance side, maps with large numbers of volumes can now opt into "Enable_Static_Volumes" to speed up overlap checks. That's a community-driven addition, with credit going to RBMKBlaze, Ghosticollis, and MCrow. There's also a new "Prevent Level Skill Overrides" option giving server operators more control over leveling on maps that normally disable it.

The fix list is mostly cosmetic and UI corrections: left-handed characters were getting wrong text on the press vest and a broken Peacemaker suitcase timer, both now resolved. California 2 also gets a couple of corrections, including missing 3D preview models for shirts and pants. Nothing earth-shattering, but clean-up patches like this matter. Everything in the update is listed below.
