ELEMENTAL BUILDS ARE HERE!

It’s been a while since we last spoke. We hope you’ve been enjoying your time in ODDCORE. We’ve seen many of you ejecting across variants, riding the train, hanging with your BFF, grinding the arcade, and relaxing in the diner with your favorite cassettes.

But we’re not done improving the park just yet. After carefully reviewing all your completely normal surveys, we’re excited to roll out a brand new facility update.

There’s plenty of ODDNESS waiting for you. Jump in and explore.
