How do you unlock more alters in The Alters? If you want to unlock more Jans to give you a hand with your base, you're going to need to level up your Qubit Level by finding chips. Here's how to do it and where to find them.
By now, you likely have your first alter, the Technician, and though he takes a bit of encouragement, he soon gets to work on maintaining or upgrading your base in the Alters, or whatever other task you assign him. It's tough to juggle and manage all the tasks, though, even with his help, so here's how to unlock more alters in The Alters.

How do you defeat all The Alters anomalies? There are six different types of anomalies in The Alters (seven if you include Planetary Samples), and each one requires a different approach to know how to get rid of it, or whether it's easier to avoid them.
Exploration is tough in this survival game, and even with the best alters, it's still hard to stay alive while managing your base and making sure everyone is fed and happy. Anomalies just add to the plight, standing in the way of collecting resources or exploring new areas, so here's every anomaly in The Alters and how to defeat them.

Wondering who the best alters are in The Alters? If you've unlocked the Quantum Computer and the Womb, you're able to make new alters. You'll be needing them, too, as you'll soon find yourself overwhelmed by tasks that need doing, from mining deposits to making sure everyone's fed, so here are all the best alters in the game.
To get more alters, you need to increase the number of slots by upgrading your Qubit Level by finding Qubit Chip locations. You start off in The Alters with the Technician, but there are different levels of alters available as you progress through areas. It's also worth noting that not all the alters can be unlocked in a single playthrough, so choose wisely.
