Hello Pachans! The 1.2 update and Xbox launch are finally here! Play cross platform with friends on Xbox, Switch, Playstation, And Steam! 🎉
In the 1.2 update you’ll be able to ride baby mammoths (and other pets), send your children to school, use an early watering system, and more! Read a detailed list about what’s all in the update in our Devlog 43 or peruse the change log at the bottom.

The Future
Our game may focus on the past, but it’s time to talk about the future! We have a massive update underway with two new regions, fishing in canoes/rafts, camping, ball sport, iron, volcano caves, and more! Even though we’ve made some awesome progress it’s still a little too early to share. We expect the update to come out next year and plan to share more about it later this year. 🥰
Thank you all for the support you’ve given us. We truly couldn’t have done this without you.
You rock!
