The update was originally one project but grew large enough to split into three versions: Ver.1.3 'Riders of the Underground', Ver.1.4 'Trials of the Abyss', and Ver.1.5 'Beyond the Rift'. The first two deepen existing systems, and the third is the final chapter.","whyItMatters":"The three-part structure confirms that the final chapter, Ver.1.5 'Beyond the Rift', is the planned culmination of the game's current arc, with the first two parts serving as lead-ins to that ending.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003ePugstorm has laid out the complete roadmap for the next phase of Core Keeper, and the scope forced a change in format.
