Season 2 is about to arrive! Servers will be up at 5 PM CET / 11 AM ET.

If you’ve been playing on BB, remember to switch back to the main branch!




One of the questions we’ve been asked is “How are you feeling about the current state of the game? Do you think it’s creating meaningful gameplay?”

This felt like a great topic to address, especially ahead of wipe and the start of Season 2.

From the desk of the one and only chadz:

We’re doing one last content push to the Beta Branch before everything is brought over to the main servers during the wipe this Sunday (which happens at 5 pm CET / 11 AM ET).

This post is just going to cover what’s in this push, and we’ll have a more in-depth post on Sunday.

To repeat a few important points:

-This is a full wipe of the main server and private servers.

-BB will be closed for the time being, but will open again in the future.

-Season 2 does not mean a full release. Xbox is also not a full release.

This week, alongside many other additions and improvements, we’re introducing a Small and a Large Base Walker Packer - allowing you to pack small Walkers and Walkers of any size respectively. They can be built only in bases due to their structure and should allow for more convenience and utility when owning a base, both for switching between Walkers and when moving to another oasis.

Well, Nomads, the day has finally arrived: We’re announcing the date for wipe, plus sharing our plan for Xbox release!



XBOX RELEASE
Since our Early Access release back in March, we've been showered with requests to make the game available on consoles and today we're finally ready to announce that by popular demand, Last Oasis will be coming to Xbox One as well as the next generation Xbox Series X and Series S in Q1 2021.

More so, the game will support cross-play from day one, allowing everyone to play together regardless of the platform on both official and private servers. Whether you prefer keyboard and mouse or a trusty controller, you'll be able to experience the game equally and with fully synchronized updates across the board.

We'll keep you updated on the ... Read more

We’d like to remind you that all the changes on the Beta Branch are experimental and in relatively early states, so it’s entirely possible that there will be significant changes to one aspect or another before the update goes live on public servers. We’re constantly reading your feedback and discussions, and checking statistics on everything that’s going on in the game to potentially balance or even overhaul some of the features.

There’s some exciting things coming in November and beyond, and we can’t wait to share more soon!

To kick things off, we wanted to say Happy Halloween, Nomads! We have two treats for you:

First, Last Oasis is available for 34% off until November 2nd!

The BB is going to be continuously updated. This means fixes and changes could be implemented at least weekly. We know that there are going to be bugs in the Commerce Update that’s available on the BB, and that there’s room for polish. Everything in the BB is subject to change. Keep that in mind when you launch the branch!

The BB will be up for around a month. We want to do plenty of testing before we bring the update and changes over to the main branch, and that will take some time.

To access the Beta Branch:

-Right click Last Oasis on Steam
-Select Properties > Betas
-Choose betabranch from the list.

It will switch to the new branch and update the game.

KEEP IN MIND: There are things shown in the trailer that may not be available in-game just yet. For example, t... Read more

We know there was some confusion surrounding why we're delaying the wipe, and we wanted to answer some of the questions we've seen.

Q: WILL THERE STILL BE A WIPE?
A: Y E S. We are still planning on wiping the game, just not in October like we originally stated.

Q: OKAY BUT WHEN IS THE MAIN BRANCH WIPE GOING TO HAPPEN?
A: We don’t have an exact date yet for the main branch wipe. We want to open up the beta branch first and see how that goes before we set any date. Once we do know when we want a wipe to happen, we’ll give plenty of heads up.

Q: WHAT IS THE PTR AND HOW WILL IT WORK?
A: We’re going to be calling it “BB” for Beta Branch instead of “PTR”. The main difference is that this branch will be active for a longer duration than PTR, which would run only for a few days, and also that BB will be getting periodic updates up until it becomes official with a wipe. It will also have a full-sized dynamic realm j... Read more
