But, sometimes, when you absolutely zero in on something, keeping hammering away at it over and over and over… Well, you don’t really feel the time fly by! So - again, sorry for going quiet, but we promise it was for a good reason! That reason being us pushing the whole game forward on every front - polishing, content, performance, you name it. And while we were at it, we got to work with some exciting new tech. It’s official: Honeycomb will be launching with Nvidia’s DLSS 4.5 and RTXDI! Take a look!
addedThen vs. NowNew lighting, reworked environments, a whole new level of visual fidelity. All thanks to rescources provided to us by Nvidia. Here’s a side by side comparison of what the game looked like a while ago and what it currently looks like - and the difference is massive.

Hey Explorers!

First things first - sorry it’s been a little quiet from us lately! We swear it wasn’t intentional! But, sometimes, when you absolutely zero in on something, keeping hammering away at it over and over and over… Well, you don’t really feel the time fly by! So - again, sorry for going quiet, but we promise it was for a good reason! That reason being us pushing the whole game forward on every front - polishing, content, performance, you name it.

Then vs. Now

New lighting, reworked environments, a whole new level of visual fidelity. All thanks to rescources provided to us by Nvidia. Here’s a side by side comparison of what the game looked like a while ago and what it currently looks like - and the difference is massive.

What's New?

We’ve also got a bunch of new, as well as improved content to show off, of course! So, first and foremost…

Steam post image…Hennessy’s Analyzer has received an upgrade! No more outdated, basic-looking tech! And, uh, speaking of non-basic tech…

…I think the size of this thing can speak for itself…

We can’t forget this guy either! You’ll be able to find it prowling along the beaches of Sota7!

And of course, we couldn’t go without adding new flora to the game! Some less Hennessy-friendly looking than others (I mean, look how big this is), but still quite snazzy if I say so myself, right?

But this is just a taste of what’s been growing on Sota7, though - remember, our team is still hard at work ironing everything out. Every system, creature, every blade of grass even - it all adds up to a world we want to be truly proud of and be ready to hand over to you guys.
