1.3.0 The Local Multiplayer Update
Southern Cross Interactive
Hi Steam Community, the local multiplayer update is here and brings split screen multiplayer with steam remote play together support among many other improvements.
Local Multiplayer
The game can now be played in split screen co-op with up to 4 of your friends.
You can play online using Steam Remote Play Together. All your friends will need is a controller and a decent internet connection. You can invite friends to join you through the steam overlay or by using in game local multiplayer menu.
There is no tethering for co-op, you can be on opposite sides of the world if you wish. You can play on an existing world or create a new one. Progression is synced between players.
Dual Sense Controller Support
DualSense (PS5) controllers are now natively supported. DualSense control symbols will now show on control hints and in the controls options menu.
That's all for today. Thank you all so much for all your support :)
