Yes, Core Keeper is Steam Deck verified.

Yes! 1.0 is going to be a major update full of brand-new content, unique ways to play, and ways to customise your game.

Yes you will, but we recommend starting a new world for the full 1.0 experience, as some of the new content won’t be available in Early Access worlds.

Players will be able to play and reach the conclusion of the game’s current story arc at 1.0, but the game will always be playable as a sandbox survival adventure.

The price will not increase at 1.0. It will remain £15.99/$19.99/€19.99.

If you purchased Core Keeper on Steam during Early Access, you will not be required to make any additional purchases at 1.0 on Steam. If you wish to play Core Keeper on another platform, you will need to buy the game for that platform.

It is our recommendation that players start new worlds at launch (or during the Free Weekend) to access the full Core Keeper story and for the full 1.0 experience, as there is some content coming at full launch that will not be supported in Classic Worlds.

We will have more information on exactly what our future plans are once we’ve launched in 1.0. We will be showing Core Keeper plenty of love after its full launch.

We do not have any DLC plans currently. Our intention is to continue supporting Core Keeper with free updates for the foreseeable future.

Yes, all of the Early Access and 1.0 content from the PC version of the game will be available in the full release of Core Keeper on console. A day one update will be required – more info on this will be shared ahead of release.
