Snowcastle Games (@snowcastlegames) has revealed their updated vision for EARTHLOCK 2, the RPG in development, with a new cinematic trailer that shows how the game lets you turn desolate deserts into lush oasis and drive customisable vehicles called Desert Ships.
In EARTHLOCK 2, you, alongside a band of voyagers, stand at the precipice of danger and glory. A vast desert of mystery and possibility awaits for you to explore and transform into an Oasis full of life. You will explore this world with your trusty Desert Ship. The ship starts out as a humble mode of transportation, but with time and effort, it will become your mobile base of operations, and instill fear into your enemies in the desert. Rise to become the most formidable Explorer of Umbra!
The series is set on the planet of Umbra, which has stopped spinning on its axis, meaning half of the world is completely shrouded in darkness, while the other half is constantly baked in sunlight. Along the border in the middle, there is an area that gets the best of both worlds. The story centers around a group of friends who must set out to find and rescue their missing family members. EARTHLOCK 2 will be an open-world action RPG with complex interlocking systems that work together to offer players extensive freedom to customize their own experience.

As the land keeps shrinking, you’ll have to act quickly. Raise new buildings, gather resources, upgrade already built structures, and figure out how to escape from the island.
FIGHT OFF THE DANGER
You’ll quickly find out that you’re not the only survivor of the flood. Unfortunately, not everyone is as friendly as you. Build defensive structures, plant water mines, and raise turrets to keep your people safe, not only from the water but also from the pirates.
