The focus of Worlds Part II was to transform the underwater environments, previously an overlooked aspect of the game. The oceans now boast greater depths, shrouded in eternal darkness and immense pressure. Surviving these depths requires specialized suit modules, with a new pressure level indicator guiding your dives.
To combat the darkness, the game's flora and fauna have evolved to emit their own light, creating a mesmerizing underwater world. Corals and creatures glow, illuminating your path through the abyss.
