Hi you all. New character customization and the trading update seems to have received a warm welcome. There is still a couple of issues with the player-owned vendors but these will be ironed out in the next update.
NOTE: Only official servers are affected by wipes. Unofficial server owners can decide for themselves when to wipe their servers
Next week there is the next scheduled wipe (17.6.2022) that we have planned. We are slowly but surely moving away from wipes and implementing the decay as a solution to preventing house overflow on servers.
This month we are going to have update 1.0.7b next week to go alongside the official server wipe.
And a bigger 1.0.8 update which I will talk more about in next chapters.

Server browser improvements
We are going to add information about the server in the server browser that will help you decide which server is the best place to start your new adventure!
We are adding a
PVP filter that lets you find only peaceful islands that have turned Player Versus Player combat OFF in the server settings. These islands are wonderful places to start as a new player if you just want to learn or just hang out!
Also, we are adding a percentage that tells you
how much space is still available on the island before you jump in. This lets you avoid servers that don't have space to put down even a single tent.
New placeables
For a little sneak peek of the new things coming in the 1.0.8 update coming later this month check out all the new items our artists have been making!
Quest system
We have also started to work on a new quest system that lets you earn rewards by doing certain types of tasks that you can do on the island. This system will be also used to create starting tutorial so that new players have an easier time figuring out what they can do in the game when they first start!
Check out new server browser improvements in the experimental branch!
Here's how you can participate:
Experimental servers are only in US and EU regions.
