About the Game
Voyagers of Nera is a cooperative survival-crafting game for up to 10 players set in a vast ocean full of ancient ruins and diverse biomes.
Nera is a magical ocean world full of beauty, magic, and danger. You are an Echo, descendants of the long-extinct protectors of this world. It falls to you to sail across the seas, defeat the monstrous creatures of the Deep, and awaken the spirits before they fade away forever.
SET SAIL ACROSS THE SEAS
As a solo player or a group, sail to distant islands or surf across the waves. Dive beneath the surface to find rare resources and hidden treasure, but beware what lurks in the depths…

SURVIVE A MAGICAL OCEAN WORLD
Your journey will take you to fantastical biomes like an island archipelago formed around a fallen colossus or coral cliffs that tower to the sky. To survive, you’ll have to build mighty seaside bases, craft new weapons, and awaken powerful nature spirits as you battle monstrous creatures both above and below the waves.

AWAKEN POWERFUL SPIRITS
Lost spirits are scattered throughout the world, hiding from the monsters that prey on them. When you rescue them, they will help you in return by teaching you crafting recipes and new magical abilities.
Each biome was once the home of a powerful Elder Spirit, but they are now scattered and lost. Find their lost shards and awaken them to inherit their incredible powers and restore the world of Nera.

BUILD THE ULTIMATE ISLAND BASE
Build growing, customizable island villages with an expressive construction system. Each base you build lets you refine resources, cook meals, and craft new gear - it also serves as a sanctuary for the spirits of the world. Build amenities to attract and protect them. In return, they will magically power your settlement, unlocking more powerful crafts.

VOYAGE ALONE OR WITH FRIENDS
Voyagers is a great solo experience and even better with friends! Play with up to 10 people on a server, add new players any time and contribute through different roles. Whether you like to adventure, craft, fight, or build, every choice helps your group progress.
For multiplayer, you can host a game for others to join, set up your own dedicated server for free, or rent a server from a range of approved partners.

LAUNCHING INTO EARLY ACCESS
We believe that all great games need player feedback, and we’ve been playtesting every two weeks since mid 2025. Early Access is our chance to get feedback from a lot more players, which will help us make the game better and better. We’d love to hear your thoughts through our in-game survey, on Steam, and in our Discord. To everyone who’s already played, thank you so much for supporting us and helping us improve the game!

Hotfix Patch
We are hotfixing some performance optimizations that we hope will improve baseline performance for most players.
New Version
The new version is 0.16.8.42669
Changes
Through diagnosing with players, we have identified Shadows cast by Decorative Lights as one of the largest contributors to poor performance. As such, we have a set of changes that we hope will provide better performance with similar fidelity, as well as more granular quality settings.
We have changed the default lighting settings in the game, and added two new graphics setting options: Decorative Light Shadows and Decorative Light Shadow Quality.
- Decorative Light Shadows will default to Off. This will only affect lights placed by players via the building system, and will not impact any other lighting sources in the game (example: sunlight).
- When 'Decorative Light Shadows' is off, player-placed lights will provide light but not cast shadows.
- If 'Decorative Light Shadows' is off, the Decorative Light Quality cannot be modified
- If 'Decorative Light Shadows' is on, the Decorative Light Quality can be modified
- There are now low, medium and high settings for Decorative Light Quality (previously, this was only controlled via the setting for overall Shadow quality)
While there will be some noticeable visual differences (lights may appear overall brighter, there will be less 'dark' spots / less contrast between lit and unlit spots in the base), we believe this still provides a bright, cozy base while dramatically improving the performance.
However, if you have a strong computer and can handle it, you are able to toggle Decorative Light Shadows back on to maintain the way the lighting looked before this change. And now additionally, if you want shadows but feel performance is suffering while in the base due to lighting, you can tweak the Decorative Light Shadow Quality setting and hopefully improve your performance.
If you have any feedback about these changes, let us know!

Hotfix Patch
We mentioned in our prior blog post that we were going to ship out multiple performance-focused hotfixes as we get the changes in. This small patch includes some of our inital peformance fixes, as well as some bug fixes for some other critical issues that were occurring after the last patch.
New Version
The new version is 0.16.8.42362
Patch Changes
Performance Improvements
- Simplification Pass to Environmental Collision - Instead of having collision exactly match every environment's shape, we made them simpler shapes to make them less processing intensive, which should improve performance. We tried to ensure every area was solid, but if you see yourself with some really wild invisible collision, falling off of things you expected to stay on, or getting stuck in places more than usual, please send us a bug report and we will fix it up!
- Enemies in Encounters now stagger their spawn - This should resolve in less things happening in a single frame, and thus having less impact on processing and better performance, especially when traveling around the map. If you notice any issues with enemies not spawning when expected, or encounters not completing properly, please let us know!
- Improvements to rendering on giant trees in the Greatwood, lowering cost to render
Bug Fixes
- Items left in the Mounting Plaque and Tidal Resonator will now properly remain between sessions
- Translations for various UI in the game (tutorial pop-ups, item tooltips, lore journals) will now be properly translated instead of displaying English
Remaining Known Bugs
There are still some remaining known bugs that we will work on fixing ASAP:
- Socketed building pieces may not rotate correctly with blueprints.
- Some buildable items still cannot be crafted from storage.
- Certain Audio and Display settings do not apply correctly.
- Interacting with the Bullwog while it is moved can cause a crash.
- Controller ‘A’ button cannot currently be rebound.
- Duplicate-binding warnings do not appear for controller keybinds.
Dedicated Server Players
Make sure to restart your servers to grab the latest update, otherwise players on the new version will be unable to connect.
We hope that this patch will make the game feel much more smooth to play and have a higher average FPS. However, we still have a lot of performance fixes we are working on - stay tuned for more updates soon!
