Vector3 Studios, the indie developers behind Sunkenland, has revealed more information on their major upcoming update. The developers announced that they are currently in the last stages of this update, which is expected to be released in the next couple of months, and promises to provide us with dedicated server support, progression changes, and new areas to explore both on the land and under the sea.

This update is going to have some game rebalancing to enhance our play experience by tweaking how we progress through the game, keeping us on our toes, and making things interesting. Each region will have its own challenges, resources, and new technology, while adding additional places to explore and updating some of the old ones should provide us with a new perspective and experience as we play.

Besides some basic general game optimization, we are also going to be able to enter the alpha stages of having dedicated server support. This will allow us and our friends to play on a perpetually live world and to be able to see how the community will change and grow over time and what new factions will be created and clash upon the open seas.

One of the most exciting parts of this update is that we will have the opportunity to pick up broken guns from defeated enemies and disassemble them, taking different pieces like scopes, stocks, barrels, and even magazines to allow us to mix and match the pieces to create our own custom guns and to see what type of awesome toys we come up with.

With all these interesting changes coming to ring in the new season, I can’t wait to explore all the new locations and weapons I can conjure up while bringing all the season’s greetings to all the mutants and pirates out there.

Are you going to host a dedicated server for your friends? What do you think about the possibility to create your own custom guns? Let me know in the comments below.
