Satisfactory

If you love factory-building titles and Factorio just isn’t doing it for you, then perhaps Coffee Stain Studios’ Satisfactory is the way to go. Having launched into early access in March 2019, the first person title sold over 500,000 copies in just a few months. The development team has been hard at work on the next update, which arrives on the Experimental branch sometime in early March.

Update 4 will add Tier 8, which means a number of new parts like packaged sulfuric acid, Aluminum casing and Plutonium Waste. New parts for project assembly like the Magnetic Field Generator and Assembly Director System can also be expected. Tier 7 will receive some balance changes as well when the update arrives, including a change to Nuclear Power’s production chain (via the new Blender building).

Nitrogen gas is also coming along with Resource Well Pressurizers and Resource Well Extractors. Last but not least is a new method of traversal, which seems to be a zipline for quickly traveling across the map. Check it out below along with the other upcoming new features.
