Initial version (2026-05-27)
A Trampler is a gigantic walking mech that serves as a player's mobile fortress on the planet Sophie. Tramplers protect the player and their squad from environmental hazards, defend against rival scavengers, carry loot, and bring destruction to enemies. The design of Tramplers is inspired by 1870s construction vessels fitted with folding legs adapted for traversing desert terrain.
Players build their Trampler from scratch in the Trampler Editor before deploying into the world. The editor allows customization of the Trampler's size, layout, and placement of its engines, compartments, storage units, and weapons. Completed designs can be saved as blueprints so the same Trampler can be rebuilt if it is destroyed during an expedition.
Component | Description |
|---|---|
Engines | Determine movement speed and power capacity |
Storage compartments | Hold gathered loot and resources during expeditions |
Weapons | Mounted artillery and other armaments for combat |
Armor | Protective layers affecting durability |
Interior design | Configurable internal layout and living quarters |
Layout | Overall structural arrangement of all components |
When playing in a squad, different players can take on specialized roles aboard a shared Trampler. One player may pilot while others man weapons stations or manage inventory. A well-coordinated crew can make the Trampler far more effective in both exploration and combat.
Tramplers that are destroyed during a Storm Dive or Voyage Mode expedition result in the loss of carried loot. However, because designs are saved as blueprints, players do not have to start from scratch when rebuilding after a loss.
