Helsinki-based developer Channel37 has unveiled The Last Caretaker, an upcoming first-person survival game set in an oceanic world. Players can expect to dive into the game when it launches in Early Access for PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store this summer. A full release for PC and other yet-to-be-announced consoles is expected to follow 12 months later.
The Last Caretaker: Survival in the Ocean
The Last Caretaker is a first-person survival action-adventure game that immerses players in an endless oceanic world. In the game, you assume the role of the Last Caretaker, a reactivated machine that has been dormant for centuries. Tasked with an important mission, your goal is to recover lost technologies, retrieve seed vaults, and reactivate the Lazarus Complex, all in a desperate effort to ensure the survival of humanity’s future.
In The Last Caretaker, the world is entirely submerged in oceans, with towering, rusted megastructures looming above the waters. But you won’t be alone in this desolate world—ancient machines and remnants of a forgotten past still serve a purpose, guiding you through your journey. As you explore, you’ll unravel the final days of Earth and discover the true meaning of your existence.
Embark on a journey across a vast, open-world ocean, where you’ll encounter abandoned seed vaults, fuel stations, and traces of ancient civilizations. By collecting lost technologies, you can reactivate crucial systems and craft modular upgrades. You’ll also take on complex management challenges, such as ensuring the proper growth of human seeds within the Lazarus Complex.
The ocean may be awe-inspiring, but it is far from safe. Hostile machines, violent storms, and scarce resources will test your resolve. The Last Caretaker delivers an immersive experience, blending exploration, survival mechanics, and strategic management for players to navigate the dangers and mysteries of this watery world.
