Soulmask, a survival sandbox game developed by CampFire Studio and published by Qooland Games, is expanding its immersive world with the free Golden Legend DLC, releasing on June 5. This major cultural expansion draws inspiration from the ancient Sanxingdui civilization of China, blending mythical symbolism with survival exploration to deepen player engagement.

The Golden Legend DLC introduces several exciting features:

  • The Golden Mask: A ritual artifact with powers like Divine Sight to detect threats, Heaven’s Watch to analyze enemies, Sunbird Blessing for passive buffs, and access to The Sunken Altar, a new submerged exploration zone.
  • New exploration zones including underwater shipwrecks and ceremonial ruins inspired by Eastern mythology.
  • The Golden Legend Set: Bronze Age-themed furniture and ornamental props to customize player homesteads into ancestral sanctuaries.

Alongside this cultural expansion, Soulmask is rolling out core gameplay upgrades focused on automation. Players can now record custom building plans, enabling tribesmen to automatically gather resources and reconstruct structures elsewhere. This dramatically accelerates base expansion and enhances strategic gameplay.

Additionally, an automated logistics system introduces powered ziplines connecting homesteads and resource points. This flexible transport network streamlines material delivery, making large-scale base development more efficient and organized.

These enhancements mark a significant evolution in Soulmask’s gameplay, combining cultural depth with smarter survival mechanics. The Golden Legend DLC celebrates the game’s first anniversary in Early Access, thanking players for their creativity and feedback.

Looking ahead, Soulmask plans to exit Early Access with its 1.0 release later this year, accompanied by a new Egypt-themed DLC. Producer Zima envisions Soulmask as an “intelligent multi-civilization survival sandbox,” where automation and cultural diversity drive a dynamic player-driven experience.

By fusing ancient civilizations with advanced automation, Soulmask offers players a unique opportunity to explore, build, and survive in richly imagined worlds. This blend of culture and technology sets a new standard for sandbox survival games.
