Unexplored 2 Receives Final Pre-Release Content Update

Big Sugar and Ludomotion revealed that they have released the final pre-release update for Unexplored 2 before they officially release the game. The game has been sitting in Early Access for a good long minute for people to check out and play as they've slowly been adding things to it. We got the rundown and the latest video from the team below about the new update you can play right now as we now slowly wait for them to give us a release date.

Very Customizable Difficulty Settings: Another major addition is the New World Settings-menu, which is available when players generate a new world. It allows them to adjust difficulty by enabling or disabling (world) features and request specific content. It's one of the advantages of having your whole world procedurally generated for you.

Community Challenge: Early Access players who are the first to find the machines in their world, will be rewarded with the opportunity to add something to the game stemming from their own imagination. This community challenge will take place in the game's Discord channel.
