It’s been just over two years since Pugstorm’s subterranean co-op survival game, Core Keeper first arrived on Steam, but today’s PC Gaming Show revealed a new trailer, celebrating the game’s upcoming 1.0 release.

The full release will include a new endgame biome, a conclusion to the main story arc, PvP functionality, and two new classes: warlock and mage, both of which use mana as a resource, and introduce new weapons, equipment, and skill trees.

Set in an ancient cavern of creatures, this vast and procedurally-generated sandbox adventure tasks you with mining resources to build your ideal base. And if that’s not enough to get you on-side—who doesn’t enjoy spending a ridiculous number of hours on the minute details of your in-game home?—maybe battling monsters, searching for treasures and trinkets, and exploring the different biomes will help sway you.

Sellinghalf a million copiesduring its first two weeks in early access back in 2022, Core Keeper is in good shape, with several hefty updates under its belt. The launch trailer, which you can watch above, shows off many of the biomes you might find yourself in, including lava-pool-infested caves, or exploring among the collapsed pillars of old ruins. A new type of customisable world generation is also happening with the full release.

It’s not all cozy vibes though—you’ll need to build bridges to cross dark chasms and face off against powerful bosses which you’ll need to overcome. Basically, the deeper you dig, the more you find, and the more you find, the further you want to explore.

If you want to wishlist the game ahead of its full release on August 27, head on over to the Core KeeperSteam page.

Asus reveals three new Slash Travel Bags for carting around your ROG Ally—however, none of them are particularly fashion forward

Three of Asus ROG’s fourth generation Slash bags float in a blue-magenta gradient void. The backpack, sling bag, and sleeve all feature a black all-over colourway with an indent design on the bottom left corner of each bag that looks a bit like tire tracks.
