Dysterra News

Hi guys,

We have a new map update to share!
Following along with Elam and Ashur, we've updated a new area named Arphaxad. Not only dangerous threats to your survival but also abundant resources coexist in this area. You need to fully gear up to overcome intense competition among survivors.

[h2]Update on New Region, Arphaxad 🗺️ [/h2] - Northeast desert area, Arphaxad, and Hyper-Satellite Station.
- Highest difficulty but highest valuable resources guaranteed!



In Arphaxad, you will have to confront various abnormalities and significant durability downfall in both weapons and housings. These are mainly due to high temperature and dust storms caused by the on-going Terrafire. You’ll be able to control your high temperature and raging thirst with rooting a raw Opuntia Leaf and Agave Leaf.



Arphaxad is indeed a difficult region to survive in. However, this area is filled with plentiful resources and Terrasites compared to other areas which would be a good challenge for mid to high tier survivors.

That’s why we believe that Arphaxad will bring a full number of very bitter competition among survivors for wanting to increase their growth and skill.



Finally, a new checkpoint within Arphaxad called Hyper-Satellite Station is a new satellite control facility built for smooth space logistics between the Orbis and Earth. As this facility has various EMP devices to prevent communication failures, you can acquire an Electromagnetic Phase Chip when you occupy this checkpoint.

Electromagnetic Phase Chip offers the ability to temporarily stop Terracores owned by other survivors with EMP Shockwave skills and to charge up all Terracores in your base with energy amplification skills.

You’ll be able to incapacitate other survivor's defense systems when raiding their bases which means, you also have a power to solidify your defense system at your base whenever your survival is threatened.



We look forward to your feedback on the Arphaxad update.
Feel free to post your opinions on our Discord channel and Steam community. With the feedback received, we will try our best to provide you with better and improved Dysterra.

[h2]Team System[/h2] This system offers a lot of player convenience and lets you share housing with your teammates.

Having your teammates back will be less dangerous in your Dysterra gameplay and between players, you can [Create a Team] or [Invite players].



During your gameplay, you can always form or break up with a team with players who are all in the same server and all of your teammates’ location and status are easily found on the mini map.

Not to be surprised yet; voice chatting between teammates, crafting tools and sharing them together are also possible! There is no need to use your phone to communicate with them anymore, we’ve got it covered.
