Core Keeper Officially Launches on Consoles with PC 1.0 Release

Global publisher Fireshine Games and award-winning developer Pugstorm have launched the enchanting sandbox adventure, Core Keeper, on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. More consoles and a physical edition will launch later in mid-September.

Gameplay is centered around the exploration of diverse biomes in a long-forgotten world while working towards unveiling the power of the Core. Along the journey players will level up their broad range of skills, encounter the Cavelings, and defeat legendary Titans.

To accomplish such a feat, players will want to construct a base of operations using a variety of items. Besides crafting and constructing items, players can grow a garden, fish in mysterious waters, master their recipes, hatch new pets, drive vehicles, and even fight rival explorers in online PvP. The way this adventure unfolds is entirely up to the player.

After an incredible time in Early Access, we are thrilled to bring Core Keeper to console and launch into 1.0 today. We have been overjoyed to see all the love and support players have shown for the game over the last couple of years, with over 2 million players already. We can’t wait for new players to begin their underground adventure today, and to continue this experience alongside them.
