About the Game

Welcome to LK447, a mineral rich planet on the frontier of The Empire. You have been reconstructed to mine for resources, pacify any creatures you find and create profit for The Empire.

This is an action RPG with a focus on mining, progression, deep customization and combat. Explore a procedurally generated world with hand-crafted encounters, monsters, boss fights, biomes and more. How deep can you go?!

Our goal is to bring you the classic experience of Motherload combined with a modern progression system and combat of an ARPG like Path of Exile. Brought to you by two Path of Exile & Minecraft developers.

Mine and return resources to The Empire. The greater the yields, the greater the rewards.

Gems, metals, rare artifacts and DNA samples are just some of the things to be found and extracted.

Utilize resources to upgrade your vehicle, build powerful skill combinations and craft components. Hundreds of build possibilities across 4 unique base skills, 50+ items, crafting mechanics, unique weapons, custom modifiers and more! 

Hostile species inhabit this underground world. Encounter a variety of dangerous creatures, several boss fights in unique biomes and if you are lucky, you may unlock the secrets to what brought you here.

Several unique biomes to explore, including special resources only found there. Help The Empire search for pure deposits, DNA samples and other valuable minerals. The deeper you go, the more there is to explore and find!

Uncover the mystery of why you are here, why you were reconstructed and why you seem to have consciousness.

Should a simple mining vehicle really be making choices on which creatures are killed or harvested?

Who are The Empire and who were the ancient species who seem to have been here before you?
