The Splintered Sea takes Besiege from land to sea, introducing new mechanics and maps to the timeless favorite.
London, United Kingdom, April 9, 2024 | Spiderling Studios, the studio behind the acclaimed title Besiege, is thrilled to announce a new expansion to their physics-based builder. Venture into uncharted waters, face new challenges, and unleash aquatic mayhem in The Splintered Sea, a Besiege expansion available on Steam on May 24th.
Head to the High Seas
Enriching the original game's experience, Besiege: The Splintered Sea offers a new expansion to the popular physics-based builder. In The Splintered Sea, players battle through a 10-level oceanic campaign, introducing new block types to bring more chaos to the high seas. Using elements of hydrodynamics, this expansion challenges players to explore new builds capable of above-water combat and undersea exploration. Test your creations in the expansion’s new sandbox, which sees players sailing through a vast archipelago, exploring ancient ruins, and putting their engineering to the test on water courses. Using The Splintered Sea’s eight new aquatic blocks, you can spread your destruction across land and sea!
