We don’t know why we are on the island and what other people have lived there. Sometimes we find dossiers of the various creatures that roam the island, or come across a recipe. However, the game will be including a lot more lore and exciting stories to find out what the reason behind the island is. This will most likely be done through explorer notes that you can find scattered around the island. In a earlier dev kit preview, we showed you some of the explorer chests and note meshes, but this time we got something way better: the actual texts that will be on the explorerRead More →

Electric prod This weapon has been in the dev kit for a while, but now it is finally released for you to use. The electric prod can stun creatures and enemies when you hit them.

  Wildcard has announced that split screen, for both local play and online multiplayer, will be coming to Xbox One in the next patch (v731). Currently there is no ETA available for the next patch, but we think that it won’t be taking that long (as patches were intended to be released every ~2 weeks). Earlier announcements stated that split screen could not be combined with playing online, but it seems this is not the case anymore. Split screen will also come to PC in the future, but an exact release for this is still unknown and no reports indicate that it will be anytime soon. WeRead More →
