[h2]System Requirements Update[/h2]
In the upcoming 14.0 Update ‘Heavy Duty’, SCP: Secret Laboratory will transition to Unity 6 due to licensing changes affecting older releases. To align with the engine’s modifications to system requirements, we are forced to drop support for some previously supported operating system versions.
As such, from Update 14.0 onwards, the game will require the following system versions:
Clients:
- Windows 10/11 21H1+ (build 19043+) x64
Servers:
- Windows 10/11 21H1+ (build 19043+) x64
- Windows Server 2022+ (build 20348+) x64
- Ubuntu 22.04+ x64
You can verify which version of Windows is running on your machine by opening the Start Menu and searching for ‘winver’.

While the game may continue to launch on older operating systems, players may experience instability or other issues. We will be unable to provide any support or guarantee the game’s functionality on these systems. Bug reports specific to unsupported OS versions will be closed and labelled as ‘won't fix’.
Additionally, running the client on Linux/MacOS using compatibility layers (such as Proton and Wine) will remain unsupported. We will attempt to avoid degrading the current experience for users who do use such tools, but we won’t be able to solve any external issues related to them.
Effective today, we will be reducing support for users on the affected versions. We will continue to offer workarounds where possible, but will no longer release updates specifically addressing issues for these versions.
[h2]Privacy Policy Changes[/h2]
We would like to take this opportunity to inform you of an update to our Privacy Policy, which will come into effect on October 18th. Most notably, we've added a section about anonymous collection of hardware and gameplay data, which will help us improve stability and game balance. This data is anonymised and cannot be used to identify you personally.
In the future, we also plan to introduce an option allowing for the collection of game crash data from users (on an opt-in basis), as well as the ability to define server-specific keybinds. Both of these features are also covered by this updated policy.
Additionally, we've made several changes to improve transparency. Please review the updated Privacy Policy [url=https://scpslgame.com/Privacy_policy_preview.pdf]here[/url]. By continuing to use our services after the listed date, you acknowledge and accept these changes.
