Following a reveal at IGN Fan Fest, industry veteran-led gaming studio Channel37 has released the first gameplay capture of its upcoming seafaring first-person survival action-adventure game, The Last Caretaker.
Set in a world of endless oceans where only remnants of humanity remain, the first gameplay footage of The Last Caretaker showcases the game’s opening area: a derelict docking station where the titular robotic protagonist suddenly awakes from dormancy. Channel37 Community Manager Jack Pattillo (formerly of Rooster Teeth) provides commentary for the footage, introducing some of the game’s gameplay systems and speaking to the narrative themes that players will experience.

Starting on March 12, Channel37 Community Manager Jack Pattillo will host weekly livestreams every Wednesday at 10AM PT / 1PM ET / 5PM GMT on the Channel37 Twitch account, offering viewers behind-the-scenes commentary, new footage, and gameplay details of The Last Caretaker before its launch on PC later this summer.
“This is my kind of game through and through,” said Channel37 community manager Jack Pattillo. “A deep mystery, survival mechanics that make you think, and real choices that shape how you play. Deciding whether to burn fuel for survival or use it as a weapon for example — these are the moments that make gameplay exciting. It’s the kind of game that keeps you on your toes, and I can’t wait to show more.”
Following the reveal of The Last Caretaker, Antti Ilvessuo, co-founder of Channel37, emphasized just how much more is still to come:
“What Jack described is just a fraction of a fraction of what players can expect in The Last Caretaker. More systems, more resources, more fabrication, more weapons, more enemies — exploration above and below the sea. Human seeds, the Hall of Humanity, rockets, and the desperate fight to keep the mission alive. The list goes on … and there’s more to come!”
Ilvessuo added, “Wishlist now!”
