Core Keeper Void & Voltage Content & Features

Core Keeper's next major update offers content and features that blend arcane mystery and industrial might. For starters, a new biome called Breaker’s Reach grants endgame players new hazards and challenges. Here, you’ll find inorganic life, complete with mechanical guardians like Chargers and Swarmers. These new foes patrol and protect the area from intruders, including any curious player who wanders into this new region. Nonetheless, this frontier holds many rewards, including powerful new gear sets and crafting materials. Also, new biomes aren't complete without new bosses. Thankfully, Breaker’s Reach has one. Enter S.A.H.A.B.A.R., a colossal mechanical marvel that won’t hesitate to test the skills of its opponents in heated combat. This powerful adversary comes with laser-targeted beams and other devastating abilities that are unashamed in removing health bars instantly. Moving forward, the Void & Voltage Update fuels revolution in automation in more ways than one. For instance, the new Advanced Automation Table introduces a suite of devices, ranging from proximity sensors to Seed Extractors. These new stations apply welcoming changes to base management. However, this update is called Void & Voltage, which means the title holds a second, more sinister meaning. In particular, Breaker’s Reach has a sub-biome called the Void. Here, familiar foes, such as Cavelings and Shamans, have been twisted into Void-touched variants. These dark energies grant old enemies with explosive new attacks. Thankfully, you’re not alone in dealing with these new threats. Say “Hello” to your new companions, which are pieces of new potent equipment. Some examples of the new gear include miniguns, mortars, grenades, remote detonators, and a flamethrower. Wield these new weapons to control this subterranean world in your favor.
