The addition of water quickly rose to the top of the Feature Upvote, the community request platform; however, implementing voxel-based water is incredibly challenging for the developers. More details on the upcoming Wake of the Water content update will be shared in the coming weeks. In the meantime, the trailer confirms the following features:
- New water biome with a cool, tropical vibe for relaxing or terraforming in beach-side
- Lizard-like enemy faction, looking like they need sunscreen
- Two-handed weapon that puts the “great” in Greatsword
- Voxel-based water simulation that can be used in building, for swimming in, fishing, aqueducting, more — and it doesn’t appear at all cube-like!
Keep palm, and carry on.
