April 14, 2025

Alright survival fans, let’s talk about Soulmask. You might’ve missed it when it quietly entered Early Access, but trust me, this game has been growing into something seriously impressive. And now, with the 1.0 launch finally on the horizon, the devs over at Campfire Studio are dropping some major updates that are going to change the game, literally.

If you’re already building your dream tribe or just thinking of jumping in, here’s what’s coming up in the world of Soulmask.

|Mind Control With a Twist

In case you didn’t know, Soulmask isn’t your average survival game. Sure, there’s crafting, building, hunting and all the staples. It lets you take control of any NPC in your tribe. Found someone with better skills or just a vibe you like more? You can literally hop into their body and play as them.

It mixes classic survival gameplay with a kind of spiritual strategy that makes building and expanding your tribe way more personal and honestly, kind of addicting.

Find a tribesman with better stats? More charisma? Or maybe you just like their fighting style? Sync your consciousness and take control. It’s like tag-teaming your way through survival with a whole squad of mini-yous.

|What’s Coming in 2025? Here’s the Roadmap

Let’s fast forward to the good stuff, the updates that are coming before and after the big 1.0 drop. Here’s what Campfire Studio has planned.

Q2 2025 – Automation and a New Story

  • Automated Clan System: This one’s a big deal. You’ll be able to set your tribe to handle construction and logistics automatically. Less micromanaging, more adventuring.

  • Free DLC: The Mysteries of the Ancient Oriental: A mysterious new storyline is surfacing. As a strange force rises from beneath the sea, Chieftains are called to uncover a long-buried power between the sand and the tide. Expect new lore, new regions, and probably some creepy ancient threats.

This is the big one. When Soulmask officially hits version 1.0, here’s what’s coming with it:

  • A major clan system upgrade

  • Improved AI and tribesman behavior

  • A full gesture system rework for better character expression

  • Appearance replication, so your tribe can finally match your own style

The launch isn’t just about polishing the rough edges, it’s a huge step toward making Soulmask feel like a complete, modern survival game. The team is also promising more new changes.

|What’s After 1.0? Even More to Build With

Post-launch, Campfire Studio already has more in the pipeline. Version 1.x, which will land later in 2025, will introduce:

  • New architectural styles for your base building

  • Additional quality-of-life improvements and updates that haven’t even been revealed yet

Basically, the devs are in it for the long haul. Even after 1.0, the world of Soulmask is going to keep growing.

If you’re into survival games with a twist, Soulmask is absolutely one to watch. That NPC mind-control mechanic alone adds a layer of strategy I didn’t even know I needed. And with free DLC and the 1.0 launch just around the corner, this game is heading toward something special.

So whether you’re building a tribe, swapping bodies with your best warrior, or just chilling in your jungle base, Soulmask might just be your next big survival obsession.
