About
Stranded Deep will feature a unique physically-based crafting and building system. Great care has been taken to minimize, even eliminate, most of the in-game UI. You will be able to craft a variety of crude weapons and tools such as spears, axes, knives, bows and even crossbows. And then there’s an assortment of everyday items to figure out how to craft. You will also be able to build a diverse range of unique shelters and rafts.
What is happening now
Stranded Deep is a survival adventure game where players must endure isolation and resource scarcity, originally set on a remote ocean island. The series is now expanding with a sequel that shifts the action to an entirely different environment - the desert wilderness. Developer North Beach Games Prague has revealed that Stranded Deep 2 will retain the core survival crafting mechanics while presenting new environmental hazards, including exposure dangers that escalate the deeper players venture into unexplored territory. The studio aims to create a world that feels inhabitable and encourages repeated exploration, marking a substantial departure from the original's maritime setting while maintaining the franchise's survival focus. The sequel is scheduled for early access in early 2027.
