• Core Keeper получила обновление Riders of the Underground - в игру добавили ездовых зверей и новый биом - 21 September 2026

  Разработчики Core Keeper выпустили крупное обновление Riders of the Underground, которое добавляет в подземный мир игры ездовых зверей, новый суббиом и несколько неизвестных угроз. Апдейт уже доступен с 21 сентября. Главным нововведением стали ездовые животные. Теперь на любом виде скота можно отправиться исследовать подземелья, предварительно экипировав его новым предметом — седлом. После приручения ездового зверя игрок сможет дать ему имя и выбрать поведение: питомец может оставаться на месте, следовать за хозяином или самостоятельно бродить по окрестностям. Вместе с этим в Core Keeper появился новый суббиом «Мох» — зелёная территория с густой растительностью и без хищников. Здесь можно найти Орекса, похожего на небольшого динозавра ездового зверя. Несмотря на грозный внешний вид, он отличается мирным характером и может стать новым спутником игрока. Однако обновление не ограничивается…

• Community Update - August 2026 - 31 August 2026

  August has been a month of exciting announcements and teasers for Core Keeper, and we're so excited to recap all this fun activity for you, Explorers. Let's jump straight in with the big news... Road to the Maw Announcements! We just announced our next 3 major content updates! Find out about the Road to the Maw in our official announcement Steam post here. We want to make the Road to the Maw an unforgettable journey and we'll be sharing lots more information about these updates as they draw closer, but we couldn't resist sharing a couple of little teasers... We Just Celebrated The 2 Year Anniversary of Core Keeper 1.0 After an incredible two-year Early-Access journey, Core Keeper launched in 1.0 on the 27th of August 2024...but our journey didn't end there! We're still releasing major content updates (like Bags & Blasts and Void & Voltage), minor drops (like 1.1.2!), and collabs (like C…

• Notes From the Underground #007 - 27 August 2026

  There's always something new to discover in the underground and it looks like our wayward Explorer found the perfect test subject for their latest creation! 👀 A transcript of this journal entry has been provided below the image. Notes From the Underground #7 - Yee-Haw! Every time I think I’m familiar with a certain corner of the underground, it surprises me. A growing, living world, lost to the ages. And who’d have thought that one of its darker, more ruin-filled corners would contain undiscovered patches of greenery? Truly remarkable. I must admit I was nervous when I encountered some of this area’s fauna, but they turned out to be a lot more placid than anticipated. I guess it’s true what they say. You can’t judge a book by its cover, and you can’t judge a creature by the sheer volume of its teeth. The creature warmed up to me so fast that I was able to test my latest creation on it!…

• Core Keeper 2026 Roadmap: Road to the Maw! - 13 August 2026

  Introducing “Road to the Maw” – our next 3 major content updates for Core Keeper! We’re so very excited to share our plans with you in more detail below, and you’ll find an overview in the roadmap image in this post (it’s also visible on our Steam store page!). What is the Road to the Maw? The Road to the Maw consists of 3 interconnected major content updates! Originally, we planned for this to be one single update that we would work on for a longer period of time – Core Keeper’s crowning glory – but as development began, we realised that building up to one release would mean that players would have to wait much longer before getting to experience any of it. Instead, we decided to split it into 3 major content updates to get the content into your hands faster. These 3 parts might not follow the exact same “new biome, new boss, new tool tiers” format as some of our previous major content…

• Community Update - July 2026 - 31 July 2026

  Hey Explorers, we hope you're having an awesome summer. We don't know about you, but here in the Northern Hemisphere, it has been incredibly warm and bright. You might be aware that in Sweden, it's customary for us to take some vacation time over the summer, and this is something we do as a business to ensure we're rested and reinvigorated for the remainder of the year. We've been spending some time away from our desks these past few weeks, but that doesn't mean we don't have time for a little community wrap up! What're Your Favourite Scenes? Scenes are unique pockets of the world that generate all over the map in Core Keeper. They can come in many forms, but you'll know you've found once because it will be distinct from the rest of your surroundings. Take the broken bridge in Azeos' Wilderness for example! You'll even find scenes created by your fellow Explorer's in the game thanks to…

These are titled "Mining Droplets" and "Nature Nuance" and were created by our very own Fredrik Präntare before we began work with Jonathan Geer! ✨ If you already own the soundtrack or Explorer's Edition (w…
