The Last General May 2025 Progress Update Adds Guided Missiles and Visual Upgrades
The Last General progress update for May 2025 details improvements to fighter jets, artillery capabilities, and unit production paths. The update also introduces modular destruction and upgraded crater visuals.
The Last General developer update details visual overhauls, combat additions, and military unit behavior changes achieved over the past month.
Combat and Projectile Upgrades
Fighter jets feature improved trails, engine plumes, heat distortion, and guided missiles that hit bomb target strategic actions more effectively. Artillery units now fire guided missiles using varying flight patterns to target armored vehicles. Projectile impacts across all surfaces now generate sparks, dust, debris, and burn holes with accompanying audio.
Unit Production and Movement
Newly manufactured units physically emerge from factories and drive toward their assigned companies or reserve deployment areas. Selected units now display their movement paths, and players can select groups at any hierarchy level by clicking their indicators. Companies are also larger now, incorporating multiple expanded platoons.
Destruction and Environment
An initial modular construction system is in place for all buildings, enabling improved destruction physics. Craters render with higher visual fidelity and destroy grass within the affected radius.
