Hello everyone!

We have a huge patch availabe now for Shadow Man Remastered that adds a new language, restores content, and addresses many problems reported to us over the last few months. Patch notes are included with the game files. Here's a peek at what's been updated:

UPDATE: For people not ready to jump into 1.4 quite yet, I have re-enabled 1.31 on a Beta Branch on Steam. In your Steam Library, go into the game's properties, and in the Betas section, choose 'version 1.31' from the list.
