Nicht nur Serious Sam 4 hat heute auf dem PC Modding-Support bekommen. Zur Feier von 20 Jahren Serious Sam hat Croteam zusätzlich ein Update zu Serious Sam 2 aus dem Jahr 2005 veröffentlicht (siehe Steam). Update 2.90 wurde von Nathan Brown (Modder von Serious Sam 2 und langjähriges Croteam-Mitglied) erstellt und bietet eine Reihe von Verbesserungen im Spielablauf sowie zwölf bisher unveröffentlichte Multiplayer-Maps - so der Hersteller.

Neu dabei sind u.a. "Dual-Wielding, Enemy Multiplier und neue Waffen". Für die Original-Xbox dürfte das Update vermutlich nicht mehr veröffentlicht werden. Hier das komplette Changelog für den PC:

"Serious Sam 2 Update 2.90 Changelog

What’s new:
- Sam can now wield a brand new weapon called the BeamGun (aka The Ghost Buster from the original Serious Sam design document)
- Enemy multiplier option is now available in singleplayer and co-op. Go, create your own Legion System in Serious Sam 2.
- Duke it out on 12 previously unreleased multiplayer maps, coming to you straight from the dusty basement at Croteam HQ. Those include Yodeller, Stadium, Hole, Desert Temple, and more.
- A brand new Flame-Thrower weapon is now available to all you modders out there, and so is the napalm item, so you can feed it.
- Sam finally learned to dual wield all of his toys. That’s pretty cool if I do say so myself.
- You know what else is cool? The ability to sprint. Well, Sam can do that now, too.
- He can also Rocket Jump, just like in the classics.
- Get lost no more with the brand new Enemy, NPC, and Objective radar.
