After a plane crash in the Pacific, you must survive alone or with a co-op partner, making use of the resources you can find across the islands and surrounding ocean.
Gather food and materials, hunt and fish, explore shipwrecks, and craft tools, weapons, shelter, and rafts. Keep track of hunger, thirst, health, and exposure, and treat injuries and illnesses to stay alive.
Travel between procedurally generated islands, improve skills to unlock crafting options, and build farms, bases, and customized rafts. You can also take on bosses, create custom islands with the editor, and play online or split-screen co-op.
Players who enjoy the game often point to its lonely castaway atmosphere, the tension of exploring open water and shipwrecks, and the satisfaction of gathering resources to craft and build. Some also value playing co-op, including split-screen. Other reviews describe the experience as repetitive or frustrating, with frequent reports of bugs and multiplayer problems.

BUILD. CRAFT. SURVIVE. ESCAPE.
Explore underwater and on land as you hunt for supplies to craft the tools, weapons, and shelter you’ll need to stay alive. Stay sharp: hunger, thirst, and exposure conspire against you as you brave treacherous elements and the dangerous creatures of the Pacific.
