The world has changed. An endless ocean stretches in every direction, its surface broken by the last remnants of those who stayed behind. Machines still hum with forgotten purpose, beacons flicker with old signals, and infrastructure continues its silent operations. But something else stirs — technology repurposed, reshaped to drift in silence.

As the Last Caretaker, a player must navigate this vast ocean, scavenging lost knowledge, reactivating dormant systems, and ensuring the survival of humanity’s final remnants. Deep within the Seed Vaults, the last human embryos wait for their journey to the stars. But not all that remains is dormant. Some machines still whisper, still move, still watch.

Key Features of The Last Caretaker:

• Create: Scavenge valuable resources to repair critical systems, upgrade your robotic capabilities, and craft tools essential for maintaining your operational capabilities. Every system you restore and every decision you make defines your purpose.
   
• Explore: If a place looks explorable — above or below the ocean — it is. Weathered megastructures, decayed platforms, and forgotten stations still cling to purpose. These aren’t just set pieces, they’re real locations with a history.
   
• Discover: Every structure contains a narrative thread to the past and fragments of human history. If a place feels like it’s hiding a secret, it probably is.
   
• Nurture: Survival isn’t just about food. Human life is shaped by memories. Rebuild them, and you rebuild humanity itself.
   
• Survive: The ocean is beautiful, but it is not safe. Rogue machines, biomechanical threats, and unknown forces seek to disrupt your mission. Navigate this world at your own pace, as a resource as simple as light can be your weapon and fear a guide to live another day. 

The Last Caretaker will be released in Early Access for Windows PC on Steam and the Epic Games Store later this year. A console release will occur at a later date. Future caretakers can wishlist the game now. 

Channel37 Community Manager Jack Pattillo (formerly of Rooster Teeth) hosts weekly livestreams every Wednesday at 10AM PDT / 1PM EDT / 5PM GMT on the Channel37 Twitch account, offering viewers behind-the-scenes commentary, new footage, and gameplay details of The Last Caretaker. On yesterday’s livestream, Jack gave a glimpse of the world outside of the game’s starting area for the very first time.
