With Voyagers of Nera (PC), Treehouse Games is developing a new survival game set in a magical ocean world, offering co-op for up to 16 players.
What kind of game is this? Voyagers of Nera is a new survival game on Steam, developed by former Riot employees and previously known under the working title “Project Islands”. The game is cooperative, playable with up to 16 players, and is set to be released on Steam in 2024.
Voyagers of Nera takes place in an “ocean world” filled with numerous islands that harbor magical creatures and ancient mysteries. With its comic-style graphics and a game world visually influenced by Polynesian culture, the survival game resembles the Disney film “Vaiana” (English: Moana).
The game also offers familiar gameplay mechanics from the survival genre. You farm resources, explore the game world, and build structures and items. Combat against powerful leviathans is also included.
We present the official trailer for Voyagers of Nera here:
What makes Voyagers of Nera special? A unique aspect of Voyagers of Nera is the players’ connection to an island spirit. With this, you form a bond that you can continuously improve.
Island spirits are living islands and players, as so-called rune-born, have the power to awaken the island spirit of their island and together protect the islands from corruption and restore the balance of the unstable seas.
If you maintain a good relationship with your island spirit by, for example, farming the island, you unlock new recipes and crafting skills. This allows you to create better items or more beautiful buildings and make your village more livable.
Who is behind Voyagers of Nera? Voyagers of Nera is developed by Treehouse Games. This is a relatively young development studio consisting of former developers from Riot Games and Microsoft.
Among the former Riot employees is Michael Chu, co-founder and CEO of Treehouse. He previously served as Product Lead at Riot Games for seven years and worked on League of Legends, among other projects.
