Preferred Networks :

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

TOKYO — August 28th, 2024 – Omega Crafter, the open-world survival crafting adventure developed by Preferred Networks, Inc. (PFN), sails into uncharted territories in the Fallen Samurai Isle update coming to PC via Steam in early October 2024.
 

Island-hop across Fallen Samurai Isle, a scenic archipelago filled with ancient secrets. The malicious malware infecting Omega Crafter continues to spread, this time corrupting once-legendary strongholds. Don a Samurai’s armor and helmet while exploring ancient battlegrounds, abandoned households, trap-filled dungeons and marvelous castles filled with all-new adversaries.
 

Launch through lush landscapes with two new methods of travel; take to the skies or travel by sea with the addition of Boats and Gliders. Design Japanese-inspired architecture with the addition of Bamboo and Pine materials native to the new biome. Surpass previous power levels with increased level caps, and fix Japanese dishes like sushi and rice balls using a special cookware set.
 

Save a virtual world overrun by hostile programs either solo or alongside up to five additional friends. Discover each biome’s resources, monsters, and loot-filled dungeons. Collect raw materials, then craft a path through the vast Beginning Grasslands, the near-endless Inexhaustible Wilderness, and the haunted Halloween Forest.
 

With the help of adorable programmable sidekick Grammi, use pre-made or custom commands to automate simple and complex tasks via a simple drag-and-drop interface. With a single click, command Grammi to chop down trees and place gathered wood in a storage chest, plant and harvest produce, and much more. Focus on the fun, not the grind. Need a personal cheerleader? Grammi can even dance!
 

Shape the world with extensive construction and crafting systems, fabricating basic structures and massive multi-level mansions for a resting place between journeys. Cultivate crops, channel water to strategic locations, and raise buildings with pre-set processes to create a self-sustaining homestead.
 

Omega Crafter is available in Early Access on PC via Steam for $24.99 with a 15% discount until Saturday, August 31st at TIME. Language support includes English, Japanese, French, German, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, with machine-translated options in Spanish, Thai and Portuguese.
