Sunken Engine Leaves Early Access With Version 1.0 On Steam
The full release answers the main question the early access build left open, whether the father's mystery plot reaches a conclusion, and the studio's stated plan to keep improving the game on player feedback and consider DLC points to a longer support tail rather than a one-and-done launch.

Two Nomads Studio has released version 1.0 of Sunken Engine, the ship repair simulation set in a Lovecraftian world that had been in early access since October 2025. The update completes all story acts, adds cinematic scenes between acts, new ships, characters and customers, plus cursed ships, horror effects and cursed locations. The PC version on Steam costs 1,710 yen, with a 40 percent discount through September 25.
The 1.0 build finishes the narrative: the story acts are complete and cinematic scenes now sit between them. New ships, characters and customers join the roster, alongside cursed ships, horror effects and cursed locations.
The loop remains split between three jobs. You repair vessels docked along a busy shipping route, sell salvage recovered from the sea at a stall behind the workshop, and protect your sanity when supernatural events during daily work threaten it. Letting your mental balance slip makes work harder and can draw the attention of dark entities.
Workshop tools, workspaces and decorations can be remodeled, and new licenses open up larger and more complex repair jobs.
