Raft News

93% rated survival game blows up on Steam thanks to huge discount

There are a handful of very big names in the survival game genre: Rust, Minecraft, DayZ, Subnautica, and, more recently, Palworld, Enshrouded, and Sons of the Forest. There's also Raft, which has plenty in common with the games listed above, and has continued to attract interest over the years since it was in and out of Steam Early Access thanks to its aquatic setting, multiplayer features, and narrative. Recently, its already healthy player numbers have shot up even further, too, as the result of it receiving a hefty limited time discount on Steam.

1.09 - Update to network code

Hey there Rafters!

We just wanted to let you know that we have just now pushed a small update containing a rework of the multiplayer network code, to increase security for hosts and clients.

If you notice any bugs or desync of objects, please let us know through our support page!

Plushies and Consoles?

Hey Rafters! It has been a while since Raft left Early Access and the Final Chapter was released! It has been amazing to see all the great feedback, your reactions to the finale of the story and the incredible rafts you all have been building. Please keep them coming!

We are happy to announce that we have partnered up with Makeship to release a one time limited edition set of plushies! Up until November 15, you can get yourself a cuddly version of the Raft Shark, Maya or the Pufferfish! Or perhaps all three? You can find the storepage right here!

And for even more exciting news, we can finally announce that we are actively working on getting Raft onto consoles! We strive to be able to release it on as many platforms as possible and hope we can give as many players as possible the chance to build their own raft! We want the console experience to be just as good as the PC game, and make sure that everything looks and feels as good as possible, and that takes a bit of time. Therefore it is too early to give you a time of release, but we will let you know as soon as we can! Many of you have asked for it and we hope you are as excited as we are!

We will let you know as soon as we have more to share!

Until next time!
