Squidshark
Lurking within the new Deep Twisty Bridges biome, the Squidshark is a serious threat. Its tentacles can ensnare even the most agile diver. Shark teeth and a powerful bite cause great damage.
Seamonkey
An ocean trickster, the Seamonkey will actively seek to steal your kit and swim off with it. Follow them back to their nests and you might find other valuable things they have collected.
Deep Twisty Bridges
Deep Twisty Bridges is a dark, red-accented region with depths exceeding 200 meters. Look out - Some of the plant life is not passive, and might ensnare you in the depths.
Thermal Spires
Rockpunchers and Bonesharks roam between these pointed ocean stacks.
Cargo Transfer Launchpad
Explore a richly detailed island, home to the Cargo Transfer Launchpad. Black sandy beaches, thermal pools, snow-dusted cliffs and intricate caves await you. At the peak, you will find a new Cargo Transfer Base along with attendant rocket launchpad.
