Its been just under two weeks since we announced our Early Access date and the brand-new Core Keeper Demo on Steam, and were pleased to report that youll be able to play our demo right up until the 28th of February as part of Steam Next fest! If that wasnt exciting enough, were also delighted to announce that the Core Keeper Demo is now fully localised in both Simplified Chinese and Thai, opening up Core Keeper to even more Explorers worldwide. Were really looking forward to hearing your feedback on our localisation efforts, and you can let us know what you think in the Steam comments or on our Discord Server!

Simplified Chinese & Thai Localisations

Those of you who are also members of our Twitter and Discord communities will have spotted an announcement from us on the 11th of February informing you that we were able to roll out early versions of our Simplified Chinese and Thai localisations for a hefty chunk of the game. While these werent 100% complete, we hoped the early localisations improved the overall experience for our Chinese and Thai Explorers. As of today, however, were happy to declare that the Core Keeper Demo has been fully localised to Simplified Chinese and Thai and we plan on both languages being available (alongside English) from our official Early Access launch! We hope youre as excited for Core Keeper to hit Early Access as we are, and that youre having a blast mining, crafting, exploring, building, fighting, cooking, and farming in our demo. If youre playing solo and fancy teaming up for some multiplayer mining (in groups of up to 8 players!), then why not join our Discord and meet your fellow Explorers?
