Hey there, Explorers, and welcome to our first-ever post-launch community wrap-up! It's hard to believe that Core Keeper released in 1.0 just three days ago, and we're feeling overjoyed with all the amazing love and support we've gotten from our fantastic community. This is a very special community-wrap up post for several reasons, including... [h2]We Broke Our All-Time Concurrent Player Record![/h2] Two years ago, during the first few days of our Early Access launch, Core Keeper hit its highest-ever player count and we've been itching to break that record ever since. Well, we're thrilled to announce that we absolutely smashed that record yesterday with a whopping 35,234 concurrent players in the game on Steam! We're so happy to see so many people playing Core Keeper at the same time, and we wonder if we'll see it grow any higher over the weekend? [h2]The Reviews Are In[/h2] Things are off to a fantastic start for 1.0 with review scores like these! We want to say a big thank you to all the outlets that took the time to play and review Core Keeper and a huge thank you to our community. Core Keeper wouldn't be what it is today without your feedback, bug reports, and insights!

We have to admit, watching them cut into the Ghorm cake is a bit like watching someone decapitate your son, but we think it's awesome all the same. Here's to the future of Core Keeper!

This feels like a good time to remind everybody that Core Keeper is coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in September!
