FragPunk Reveals Farlands: New Delivery PvPvE Adventure Now Available in Early Access

FragPunk has launched its biggest new chapter yet with Farlands, a permanent, multiplayer delivery-driven PvPvE adventure where dozens of players share a persistent world, now available in Global Early Access on PC and console.

Farlands combines high-stakes cargo deliveries with resource gathering, combat, and long-term progression in a sandbox combat experience. Players take on delivery orders, venture into dangerous territories to collect resources, and transport their cargo safely to its destination. But delivering cargo is more than simply traveling from point A to point B. Cargo weight, changing environmental conditions, and encounters with other players can all influence the outcome of a run.

What makes Farlands particularly unique is that all of this takes place in a persistent world that continues to evolve over time.

A World in Constant Flux: Inside Farlands’ Core Design

Farlands features a persistent server system that allows players to return to the same continuously evolving environment.

Persistent Sandbox Combat: Each server operates on a five-day cycle, with in-game time progressing continuously. Players can repeatedly return to the same server to gather resources, complete orders, and engage in combat. Their actions, including fighting enemies, contribute to changes in faction levels within the server, affecting the strength, number, and distribution of hostile forces.

An Evolving NPC Ecosystem: Within the persistent server system, the NPC ecosystem is constantly evolving. Even after players clear hostile forces from an outpost, the area won’t necessarily remain safe. Over time, enemies may return and grow stronger, and defeating these tougher opponents can reward players with rarer resources.

Dynamic Weather: Weather conditions such as heat, cold, and rain accelerate the depletion of players’ health and affect cargo transportation. Players need to monitor their condition and consider how different weather conditions affect their ability to carry cargo, carefully planning their loads and delivery objectives while keeping themselves in good condition.

Multiplayer Cooperation and Progression

Beyond its evolving environment, Farlands also brings player interactions and long-term progression into its core delivery gameplay loop.

Unpredictable Player Encounters: Farlands features global voice chat and an emote system, allowing players to communicate during combat and deliveries. Strangers may reach temporary agreements to escort valuable cargo together, only to turn against one another at a critical moment and claim the loot for themselves. With these interactions driven by player communication, every encounter carries an element of uncertainty.

Long-Term Resource Progression: Resources earned from successful deliveries can be invested in strengthening personal equipment and developing bases. By continuously gathering and investing resources, players can gradually improve their capabilities and prepare for more demanding combat encounters and delivery missions.

Before You Hit the Road

Whether you’re preparing for your first delivery or looking to improve your chances of survival, here are four tips to help you become one of the best couriers in Farlands.

1. Build Your Loadout Around Sets

Farlands features an extensive attribute system, with different pieces of equipment directly affecting character stats. We recommend combining gear from matching sets to improve your overall performance.

2. Upgrade Your Equipment, Weapon and Character

As a server progresses, the environment becomes increasingly dangerous. Players can visit NPCs at the Hub to upgrade their equipment, helping them prepare for the battles ahead.

3. Prioritize Hub Level-Up

Your base plays an important role in long-term progression. Upgrading it unlocks advanced crafting options, character skill trees, and expanded cargo storage, giving players more ways to develop their capabilities and prepare for future deliveries.

4. Acquire Vehicles and Blueprints

Beyond the basic equipment system, Farlands features more advanced progression options through vehicles and blueprints. Players can discover blueprints while scavenging, gradually expanding their options for the mid-to-late game and preparing for tougher enemies and more demanding delivery missions.

Ready for Your First Delivery?

In Farlands, every cargo run brings new risks, shifting opportunities, and decisions that can determine your success.

Prepare your equipment, strengthen your capabilities, and stay ready to adapt to the changing world around you.
