For this Festive Season, PlanetSandbox has released a New Christmas Version which includes a variety of improvements in gameplay, game experience, and features. Let’s see what we have in this update!

1. New Map Release: Desert

A high view on a rocky canyon in the Desert

An abandoned Special Economic Zone placed in Mirage - A strategic jungle planet. It was used as Lord Dukan’s command center against the USF during the civil war. The USF rained massive firebombs as retaliation, burning the entire jungle into an inhabitable desert. Its climate just recently recovered enough for the time-consuming terraforming process.

Mostly rocky canyons and deserts reach the sky, embraced by sandstorms and a hot environment bringing you intense and heart-breaking moments while competing with other players.
