Today we wanted to give you a quick overview of what you can expect in the next update. We expect this update to be out in 2-3 weeks and our major feature for the patch is underwater content. So let's dive in!
Underwater Caves
While exploring the sea you'll be able to find small rocks and land barely peaking about the ocean indicating a cave below. You can now swim underwater and explore these caves. You do have a limited amount of breath so you'll need to find bubble streams in the cave or get gear to help you hold your breath longer.
Within these caves we've included a lot of new assets including coral, vegetation, jellyfish, and other fish you can find swimming about the cave. You'll also be able to get rare resources like pearls and aquastone. Our goal with these caves is provide a more laid back exploratory experience where you can complete puzzles, look for treasure, and explore interesting things like old shipwrecks while completely underwater.
The Sea Diver's Guild
The next update is also going to include a brand new guild known as The Sea Divers that specifically deal in quests related to underwater content. You'll be able to earn ranks among the guild and unlock unique gear such as a trident weapon, outfits that increase your breath hold time, and even an aquarium to put on your ship.
Buried Treasure
We're also happy to announce that in the next update you'll finally have a use for the shovel you've been carrying on. You'll now be able to find buried treasure on desert islands with some gold and other good loot.
In addition to the above content we'll also be adding bug fixes and other balancing changes. As always thanks for reading and we'll have more news to share soon!
