Owners of previous DLCs received additional blocks for free, including:

: 11 new shapes added to the Sparks of the Future Pack . Industrial T-Junctions : Added to the Heavy Industry Pack .

: Added 40 new armor blocks (10 shapes across small and large, light and heavy grids) to provide more creative freedom for complex ship hulls.

Update 1.201, known as the update, was a major community-focused release for Space Engineers that introduced highly requested features and a significant amount of "Free-LC" (free content added to existing DLCs). Highlighted Feature: Community "Most Wanted" Content

: A much-requested visual update that provides a cleaner, more immersive view when controlling cameras.

: Combat was improved by making the lead indicator correctly account for gravity when firing weapons.
