Hey Rafters!Since we released Raft on Xbox Series X/S and Playstation 5 last year there has been a Beta Branch here on Steam that enables cross-play, letting Rafters who chose to opt in play with their friends who might play on Xbox or Playstation. See, when we built the support for cross play into the PC version, quite a bit of code and systems had to be overhauled and rewritten, and we knew there could be a few issues that arose once we launched. This is why we let it sit on its own branch on Steam, so that players who wanted to try cross-play could choose to do so, knowing there might be a

If you're playing this open-water survival game, you need to make sure you get a Raft Juicer. Why? Because it greatly quenches your thirst, it gives you an anti-thirst bonus, and it's a fun way to display your fruit collection. If you manage to get your hands on the Spicy Pineberry or Redbeet Shot recipes, you can even get a swimming speed bonus or health bonus respectively. The basics are simple: place up to four types of fruit on the Raft Juicer table, and press 'start cooking' to create a drink. When the drink is done (this takes a few seconds), equip a Drinking Glass and fill it up. Of cou

There are a handful of very big names in the survival game genre: Rust, Minecraft, DayZ, Subnautica, and, more recently, Palworld, Enshrouded, and Sons of the Forest. There's also Raft, which has plenty in common with the games listed above, and has continued to attract interest over the years since it was in and out of Steam Early Access thanks to its aquatic setting, multiplayer features, and narrative. Recently, its already healthy player numbers have shot up even further, too, as the result of it receiving a hefty limited time discount on Steam. Read the rest of the story... RELATED LINKS:
