The Last Caretaker is a first-person survival action-adventure created in Unreal Engine 5 by Finnish game development studio Channel37. The game released in Early Access on 6th November, 2025.
Gameplay
The game is a first-person survival action-adventure where you sail, scavenge, and rebuild in an endless ocean world. Recover lost technology, craft vital systems, and ensure humanity’s future—before it’s too late.
Plot
You are the Last Caretaker, a lone machine reawakened after centuries of silence. The Earth is flooded, its towering megastructures rusting under an endless sky. The Seed Vaults remain, containing the last human seeds—waiting to be born. Your mission is clear: recover the seeds, reactivate the Lazarus Complex, and launch the last of humanity to the stars.
But the world is not as empty as it seems. Machines still whisper old protocols, relics of the past still move with purpose, and your every step brings you closer to uncovering the meaning of your existence.
Forklifts
The game features a drivable forklift that the player can use to move heavy equipment. The poor handling of the forklift is difficult to master however, and players are reportedly not satisfied with its usability in the game.
