Rebuild in a fantasy land swallowed by deadly fog, shaping voxel terrain and rescuing survivors to staff your base.
Who can play
- No split-screen on any platform.
- Online for up to 16 players on PC and up to 8 on PS5.
- No crossplay between platform families. PC and PS5 players cannot play together at the 1.0 launch; the developer says crossplay is in the works.
- Each player online needs their own copy.
How it plays
Up to sixteen players share one world on PC and eight on PS5, so a group can split between building a large base and venturing into the fog.
Combat is action-based and needs some focus, while building sessions are relaxed.
Everyone needs a copy on the same platform, as PC and PS5 do not play together yet.
