Soulmask News

[h2]Get ready, Chieftains—[/h2]

The secrets hidden within the Mask are about to unfold. In 2025, you will finally uncover the ultimate truth behind the Mask and the mysterious civilization. Step by step, the Mask will guide you down the Path of Evolution, lifting the veil on the mysteries behind it all.


On this journey, the Mask will gradually empower you to become a true chieftain and build your very own “Mask Civilization.”
The vision for Soulmask 1.0 is to evolve into a one-of-a-kind survival-management sandbox. This magical creation will reveal a whole new world to you through three aspects:

The Mask: This mysterious artifact from an unknown civilization is more than just a vessel for your soul—it holds unimaginable power. As you delve deeper into the world, the Mask will unveil even more incredible abilities… and may even awaken an ancient consciousness that has slumbered for eons.

The Tribe: With the Mask’s help, your ability to manage and grow your tribe will become stronger than ever. The automation technologies from the Mask can also extend your clan’s influence far and wide. But don’t forget your ultimate goal—to build a civilization of your own!

Civilization: The Mask’s influence stretches far beyond a single ancient culture. In the future, you’ll uncover multiple ruins from distant past civilizations, even civilizations shaped by completely different cultures…

Of course, the 1.0 version of Soulmask will include much more—including features you’ve been waiting for. We’ll release developer insights across multiple modules to provide in-depth, one-on-one explanations so you can explore our most important version from every angle.
The Mask’s evolution never stops. Soon, you’ll experience the first of many transformations: In Q2 2025, we will be dropping a major update and a free DLC.

Free DLC – The Mysteries of the Ancient Oriental: Chieftains are sensing a mysterious power stirring from beneath the sea. What long-forgotten force is calling to you from the ruins buried in sand and seawater for thousands of years?
Major Update – Automated Clan: Tired of building every structure brick by brick? Frustrated with moving the endless resources across camps? This brand-new function, unearthed by the Mask, might just be the answer you’ve been looking for—solving these problems at the root.

These exciting new features are coming soon—and they’re only the beginning of even more changes to come in Soulmask!

What part of the roadmap are you most excited about? Let us know in the comments—we’ll respond to as many of your questions as possible!
