The game is a cooperative survival crafting title set in the ruins of Atlantis, supporting up to four players in online co-op. Players wake up as castaways on mysterious islands, explore forgotten ruins, and build a new life. The open-world gameplay includes diving underwater to collect resources from caves, coral reefs, and deep seas, then using those materials to construct bases with paintable walls, tiled floors, and furniture. Players can also grow dozens of mysterious plants that serve as food or energy to power weapons, and battle bosses such as giant sandworms. The game features corrupted creatures, insect-infested islands to purify, and ancient technology and lost magic to recover. Building elements are described as having a high degree of freedom, allowing players to design ideal homes. The distribution platform is PC via Steam, with a planned early access release in the future, though no specific release date has been announced. The developer describes the game as fitting for players who enjoy the underwater exploration of Subnautica and the combat and building cycle of Valheim.","whyItMatters":"The announcement positions Glowbug Games' title as a direct blend of two established survival genre pillars, Subnautica and Valheim, which could attract players looking for a co-op experience that combines underwater exploration with base-building combat.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eGlowbug Games unveiled \u0026#39;Seaforge: Shores of Atlantis\u0026#39; with a trailer on July 30, presenting an open-world survival craft experience set in the mythical sunken civilization. The game supports online co-op for up to four players, though one source lists the player count as three, indicating a possible discrepancy in early materials. Players begin after a shipwreck, waking on forgotten islands that hide the lost ruins of Atlantis. During the day, they dive to gather resources from underwater caves, ruins, coral reefs, and dangerous deep-sea areas. These materials are used to build simple structures, such as a thatched-roof house, to survive hazardous nights. The game includes a progression system where players unlock blueprints for Atlantean weapons powered by solar energy, and they can construct greenhouses to grow mysterious plants that produce food and energy. Boss battles feature creatures like giant sandworms, and players must also purify insect-infested islands and recover ancient powers. The developer\u0026#39;s comment compares the game to Subnautica and Valheim, suggesting a hybrid of underwater exploration and combat-building loops. The title is planned for early access on Steam, but no release date has been set.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Seaforge: Shores of Atlantis blends Subnautica's deep-sea dives with Valheim's building and boss fights, all in a co-op Atlantis sandbox.
