Explorers! Prepare to dig into a brand new sandbox adventure when Core Keeper comes to Xbox Game Pass on Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC on August 27th.
Everybody here at Pugstorm is so excited for Xbox Game Pass players to be able to jump into Core Keeper on day one, and explore the game’s enchanting subterranean world together in 2-8 player online co-op, or as single-player adventurers.
Want to know more about what you’ll be doing on your adventure into the underground? Here’s some more things to know about Core Keeper before you get started!
Digging Deeper into Core Keeper
Core Keeper is a mining sandbox adventure that sees players teleported to an ancient underground world teeming with unusual creatures, mysterious biomes and hidden secrets. As an explorer, you’ll have to harvest resources to build your base, craft new tools, and level up your skills, while setting off on an adventure to power up a mysterious relic known as ‘The Core’.
There’s mining (naturally). There’s crafting, fishing, farming, pets, vehicles, skill trees, relics, resources, and a whole load of bosses just waiting to be defeated! Oh, and did we mention the gorgeous music, decorative items, cosmetics, and customisations just waiting to be uncovered?
Build, Craft, and Get Creative
When you first start your adventure in Core Keeper, you’ll awaken as an explorer in a mysterious cavern filled with treasures, trinkets, and secrets. From here, how you play is up to you! Craft tools and weapons to help you delve deeper into the underground. Explore Core Keeper’s dynamic and evolving biomes. Build and decorate bases with a whole host of different materials and customisations – whether you want to create practical pit stops across the map or cosy cabins to call your home. Or jump into Creative Mode to build your dream base, where the only limit is your imagination!
Explore Solo or Team Up with Friends
Traverse the underground at your own pace or partner up with pals for the ultimate eight-player adventure. You’ll get the option to create your own custom character whenever you start a game, and you can choose from several different backgrounds to give you an edge when starting out. From the humble explorer all the way to the daring fighter, the green-thumbed gardener, and more.
Hone your skills, level up, and unlock talents that’ll make life underground a whole lot easier. Will you and your friends carefully choose your backgrounds and skills to create a perfectly optimised team, or will you gather together as a group of gardeners because plants = pretty?
Farm, Fish, and Raise Pets
Survival is the name of the game in Core Keeper, so you’ll need to keep an eye on resources like food and avoid getting ganged up on by a horde of angry Cavelings (you’ll know ‘em when you see ‘em). Thankfully, there are plenty of crops to grow, fish to catch, and recipes to discover by combining them in the cooking pot. Not only does food improve your health, most recipes provide you with useful buffs to aid you in combat.
Battle Big Bosses
On your journey through the underground, you’ll encounter a number of legendary Titans that hold the secret to Core Keeper‘s long-forgotten world. With multiple Titans to face and a variety of monsters and mini-bosses to discover, make sure to plan your strategy and craft powerful loot to help you conquer these colossal creatures!
