APICO Bee-parture New OST Now Available on Steam and Your Favorite Music Platform
The perfect playlist to keep bees to has just gotten bigger! A few weeks ahead of the launch of the final update coming to beekeeping sim, APICO, the talented Mothense has released a brand new original soundtrack. APICO Bee-parture, the featured OST for APICO’s final free update, 4.0: A Hive of Industry, adds 11 new, chill tunes to create a relaxing atmosphere for you as you forage, craft, breed and raise your bees. Mothense’s latest musical offerings are now available on Steam and your favorite streaming services, including, Spotify, Bandcamp, Apple Music, and YouTube Music, starting today.
“For the final and most grand APICO update, I've made over half an hour of fresh music,” said Mothense. “While some of the tracks of the previous updates were rather short, I've decided to give them more room to breathe this time (even more so on the OST album!). I hope everyone enjoys it!”
APICO’s final free update, Update 4.0: A Hive of Industry, will introduce a new automation system, new seasonal events, new craftable materials, and, best of all, pets! All this and more will be available to players on PC and Nintendo Switch on May 20. You can check out the full details about the latest features to come to APICO with Update 4.0 here: https://wiki.apico.buzz/wiki/Patch_Notes#4.0.0.
About APICO
APICO combines resource gathering, biology, and minigames with ideas from both real-life and fantasy beekeeping and gardening, as it teaches players about the ins and outs of maintaining a healthy hive and the importance of our irreplaceable pollinating pals. The islands of APICO were once abuzz with different species of bees, and it’s up to players to rediscover lost species, cross-breed new ones, and repopulate each unique bee-ome. Progressing further into the game may also uncover some forgotten secrets.
As well, a portion of the games’ profits goes toward bee conservation. Full details about these efforts can be found here: https://tngineers.com/charity.
