CORSIKA 8 is a next-generation framework for Monte Carlo simulations of air showers currently under development. In this contribution we present recent developments of the project, mainly concerning the propagation of the hadronic and muonic components of air showers. Furthermore we compare simulation results obtained from CORSIKA 8 to other codes, including CORSIKA 7, CONEX and MCEq.
