Exciting news, adventurers! A new update (0.16.0) has just been rolled out for the open access version of Unexplored 2: The Wayfarer's Legacy. The update introduces new gameplay mechanics, new creatures, and new environments, as well as a host of other tweaks and improvements.

You can find full details of what's included in the update on the game's Fig page, but here's a quick summary of highlights:

• New creatures (Boars, Spiders, Jabberlings, Elebecks and more)
• New and reworked sprites (Strong Root Sprites, Lightning Sprites, Rock Sprites and more)
• New environment and terrain (swamp and waterfalls)
• Improved and expanded ruins (now with magic flame traps)
• New interactive flora (Rotor Blooms, Chameodore, Screaming Thistle and more)

Check out the trailer to see some of the new content:





Spiders are one of the new types of beastie. In addition to regular types of spider, there are Poisonous, Diggers, Electric, and Phase types to contend with. And mind out for cobwebs – they'll slow you down!



Destroy the fruits on this 'oddreek' tree (above) and you inherit its pungent smell. As the name suggests, it's an unusual odour, although it seems to appeal to boars and a particular type of plant…



Features in and around ruins have been improved and expanded. Doors and switches are generated more logically, but beware new magic flame traps that guard some ancient structures.

That's a quick overview of what's new. To find out more, including how to become an Unexplored 2 backer so you can start playing the open access right now, head to the Fig page: https://www.fig.co/campaigns/unexplored-2

And don't forget – wishes make dreams come true, so don't forget to add Unexplored 2 to your Wishlist :)
