Ahoy, Seafarers!
After our winter break, we’re back on deck – and we want to start by saying a huge thank you to everyone who has supported Seafarer since our Early Access launch in October.
Your support, feedback, and patience have helped guide development over the past months, and to show our appreciation, we’re introducing something special for those who have already joined us on this journey at sea.
⚓ Free supporter content for current owners
While we’re constantly working on our next big update with further optimization, additional content and expanded gameplay, we’d like to officially introduce the Supporter Edition and Supporter DLC for Seafarer: The Ship Sim.
However, the most important part of this announcement is this:
If you already own Seafarer at the time of this announcement, all supporter content is completely FREE for you. 🎁
This content is our way of giving back to the players who believed in Seafarer early, jumped into Early Access, and helped shape the game through reports, feedback, and discussion. Thank you for your time, for playing the game, and for sticking with us through the rough seas of development.
If you currently own the game, the supporter content will be added automatically, no additional purchase or action required.
For new players joining in the future, the Supporter DLC, Supporter Edition (bundled with the main game and soundtrack), as well as the Soundtrack will be available as an optional purchase as a way to support the ongoing development.
See the Supporter DLC content in action:
🚤 What do you get?
As current owners of the game, you will get the Supporter DLC and the Soundtrack for free. The Supporter DLC adds new content to Seafarer:
🚤 Meet Gull
The Gull is a small vessel similar in size to the Rigid. It comes with drone equipment, opening new ways to explore the sea.
🛰️ Drone gameplay
Deploy and control a drone to explore the surrounding area and experience the seas of Seafarer from a new perspective. This is a first iteration of drone gameplay.
👤 Additional player customization
We’ve expanded the player customization wardrobe with 2 new hats, 2 new jackets, and 2 new pairs of pants.
🎵 Original Soundtrack
The official Seafarer: The Ship Sim soundtrack is included as part of the Supporter Edition, alongside the main game and Supporter DLC. And of course, free for all of you who already own the game. New players can purchase it separately.
🚨 What’s coming up next
With development fully resumed, we’re now heading toward Early Access Update #2: The Rescue Update. This upcoming update reinforces the Tide Guard fleet with Salvation and Grace, two new police ships, and introduces rescue gameplay. Additionally, there will be some much-requested additions like the bow thruster mechanic added to the largest vessels, as well as a first iteration of a vessel editor. We’re excited to share more details with the official announcement (and open beta start) very soon.
Once again, thank you for supporting Seafarer. It keeps us moving forward, and we’re proud to have you aboard.
See you on the horizon,
Your Seafarer Team 🚣
