Open The Sunken Frontier from its App Store event page to learn about Nerith and how to reach it. Your expedition progress and Full Expedition access stay unchanged.

Dive into Nerith, a new world beneath one ocean. • Explore seven underwater strata, mine ten new ores, and manage air and hull pressure. • Discover sea creatures, currents, air pockets, new equipment, and supplies. • Face the Kraken Matriarch, escape the Trench Run, and confront the Lantern Below. • Take on reworked Undervault bosses and chases. • Improved menu-title fitting on smaller screens. Nerith is included with Full Expedition. Existing Full Expedition owners keep access.

Rebuild your rig for the depths. • Equip parts and trinkets with rarity and levels. Upgrade, scrap, and Merge All to turn duplicates into stronger gear. • Visit the Forge for daily stock, rerolls, and a daily crate. Unlock six machines in the Hangar and customize them with paints. • Claim login gifts and daily jobs, open Mail, and earn Core Gems as you play. • Spend gems on optional boosts, crates, Forge actions, and cosmetic paints. Optional gem packs and a one-time Starter Pack are available. • Explore the Expedition Pass: 30 tiers in each four-week season, with free and gem-unlocked tracks and changing themes. • Return to tougher bosses with new moves, descend through the Deep Bore, and take on Ascension and Echo challenges. • Existing saves convert to the new gear system without losing progress. Look for the one-time Refit note. • Optional local reminders can tell you when the Forge restocks. Vesper-9 remains a complete first expedition. Full Expedition still opens the other two worlds and removes ads.
