After six months since launch, Serious Sam 4 developers are still adding quality-of-life features to the game along with new content. Update 1.08 was released a few days ago and it brought several cool things.
Every Serious Sam 4 owner of the Steam version will now get free access to Serious Editor. Players will be able to make new maps and cinematics, among others. You can watch the tutorial of the editor below. We are soon going to get some amazing mods thanks to the editor.
