Greetings Survivors!

We wanted to share some updates on what’s been happening behind the scenes as it’s been a couple of weeks since the last dev blog! We’ll keep it short and sweet, but a ton of progress has been made and we’re excited to release the next update soon! Here’s a quick look at what we’ve been up to!

[h2]Swimming[/h2]
Testing and progress on the new swimming system has just about wrapped up and we are planning for this to be released in the next patch. We’ve worked on polishing the swim mechanic as well as drowning out a few pesky bugs that came up during testing over the past week! With the release of swimming, you’ll be able to access the expanded island areas of the map which will provide players with new areas to explore and build their bases. We’ve also implemented new items including sea sponges, coral, and more!


[h2]Map Updates[/h2]
As was mentioned in the previous dev blog, several map updates have been ongoing and we anticipate them being released with the next patch. Here’s a few sneak peaks of some of the island areas that were recently polished, along with Bakersfield Farms which was featured during our developer streams this week.


[h2]Snow Weather Update[/h2]
We have also updated the snow system in game adding new textures to really bring the world alive during the cold seasons. Here’s a couple of sneak peaks from the farms during snowy conditions!


[h2]Helmet Skins[/h2]
We’ve also been working on the helmet cosmetics system. Which will be available in this next update, country themed helmet skins will be available in the shop. Let us know what country you would like to see!
