    Saddle Up, Explorers! Core Keeper Hits 6 Million Players and Unveils Massive Free Update ‘Riders of the Underground’

    It is time to dust off your pickaxes, polish your armour, and get ready for a brand-new way to navigate the deep, dark subterranean depths.

    Saddle Up for a Whole New Adventure

    The headline feature of the upcoming Riders of the Underground update is the highly anticipated addition of mounts and rideable creatures. Players will finally be able to leap into the saddle and traverse the treacherous, sprawling caverns faster than ever before. Whether you are trekking through winding caves, fleeing dangerous boss encounters, or hauling back rare loot to your base, mounting up will add a fast-paced, exciting layer to your underground journeys.

    Alongside rideable companions, the update is set to deliver a treasure trove of fresh content:

    • New Mounts & Companions: Tame and ride unique subterranean beasts built to handle the subterranean terrain.
    • Expanded Biomes & Content: Discover new, uncharted areas filled with fresh resources, crafting materials, and secrets to unearth.
    • Formidable Enemies & Bosses: Test your gear and combat skills against terrifying new threats lurking in the dark.

    Best of all? The Riders of the Underground expansion is 100% free for all existing owners of the game across all platforms.

    A Subterranean Sensation: 6 Million Players Strong!

    The announcement of the new update comes alongside another monumental milestone: Core Keeper has officially passed 6 million players worldwide! Since its early success, Core Keeper has captured the hearts of adventure fans by blending the best elements of sandbox crafting, base building, farming, and action-RPG boss battles. Reaching 6 million players is a testament to Pugstorm’s dedicated post-launch support and the amazingly vibrant, passionate gaming community that continues to grow with every update.

  • Core Keeper’s Void & Voltage new content update available today

    Core Keeper’s Void & Voltage new content update available today

    Explorers, grab your pickaxes and charge your generators! The long-awaited Void & Voltage update (v1.2) for Core Keeper has officially launched today, February 25, 2026. This massive free content drop is now live across PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch (including the brand-new Switch 2).

    Whether you’re a master of automation or a battle-hardened titan-slayer, there is a literal mountain of new content to unearth. Here is the breakdown of what’s waiting for you in the depths:

    New Biome: Breaker’s Reach

    Step away from the organic caves and into a cold, mechanical frontier. Breaker’s Reach is a high-tech, industrial biome filled with forgotten machinery and dangerous new metallic foes.

    • New Enemies: Face off against Geobot Miners, Patrollers, and Scourers.
    • The Void Sub-Biome: Discover “breaches” in spacetime where the environment twists into the Void, featuring corrupted variants of familiar enemies and eerie new plant life like Glowing Mushrooms.

    Colossal New Bosses

    Prepare your best gear—you’re going to need it for these two titans:

    1. S.A.H.A.B.A.R: A massive, anime-inspired mechanical mega-boss that utilises laser-targeted energy beams.
    2. Oblidra the Void Lord: An extradimensional hydra that uses “ghost” forms and devastating arcane attacks.

    Advanced Automation & Machinery

    Base building just got a lot more sophisticated. The new Advanced Automation Table allows you to craft high-tier electronics to streamline your underground life:

    • Robot Farm Arm & Seed Extractor: Fully automate your crop cycles.
    • Item Collector & Critter Catcher: Clean up loot and collect cave creatures effortlessly.
    • Proximity Sensors & Logic Circuits: Build complex, functional systems within your base.

    Firepower & Equipment

    If the robots are getting too close, it’s time to upgrade your arsenal.

    • New Weapons: The Flamethrower (complete with flammable oil), the Scrap Minigun, and Mortars allow for massive area-of-effect damage.
    • Armour Sets: Six new sets, ranging from high-tier Void-Fused plate to—wait for it—Pyjamas for enhanced healing while sleeping.
    • Echo Maps: A literal game-changer. These consumable items scan the world to mark points of interest like temples, merchants, and arenas on your map.

    Quality of Life & More

    • Max Item Level: Now increased from 19 to 20.
    • New Materials: Start mining Relucite Ore and Corrupted Alloy.
    • Achievements: 4 brand-new achievements to hunt down.
    • Visual Enhancements: Significant lighting and performance boosts, especially for players on the new Nintendo Switch 2.

    Note for existing worlds: You don’t need to start a new save! The new content will generate in the unexplored “outer regions” of your existing world. However, to see the new Titan Shrines, check your world settings to enable the new Content Bundle.
