Abiotic Factor Is A 2025 Survival Game<\/p>\n
In case you missed it, Abiotic Factor first landed on the Extra tier in July of last year.<\/p>\n
Developed by Deep Field Games and published by Playstack, it sees players attempt to survive within an underground facility facing various threats.<\/p>\n
You must contend with enemies invading via portals as you put together a plan that\u2019ll save everyone inside.<\/p>\n
Playable alone or with up to six friends, you\u2019ll gear up and journey outside the facility as well as improve and fortify your underground base, and unlock new skills.<\/p>\n
Abiotic Factor fared well with critics upon release, securing a score of 88 on the aggregate website Metacritic.<\/p>\n
The Cosmic Companions DLC Adds New Pets, New World Changes, And More<\/p>\n
It\u2019ll perhaps come as no surprise that the Cosmic Companions DLC is predominantly concerned with adding a variety of new and updated pets to the game.<\/p>\n
The update\u2019s patch notes<\/a> reveal that players can now tame a wider variety of pets, with a companion pet slot having been added so that your pet can help you out in the field.<\/p>\n Chemistry advancements have led to the introduction of Peccary Taming plus all pets can now be picked up as long as you have a free hotbar slot.<\/p>\n There are plenty of other improvements to the way pets eat and follow scientists around the facility, as well as how they are tamed and renamed.<\/p>\n The addition of chemistry is another big focus of the DLC with players now able to build Distillation Benches so they can process anomalous materials.<\/p>\n Distilled resources can then be taken to a Chemistry Bench to be combined into a new concoction.<\/p>\n There are 12 new throwable flasks that can be crafted at Chemistry Benches, plus you can produce 10 new Tinctures and 10 new Weapon Coatings.<\/p>\n Players can craft new wristwatches with various effects pertaining to stealth and hauling goods.<\/p>\n The DLC will also mark the arrival of some hefty new world changes with unfamiliar hostile enemies flooding in via the unstable Botanical Temporal Rift.<\/p>\n This is all alongside a ton of bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements.<\/p>\n PlayStation Plus users are full of praise for this underrated game.<\/p>\n \u201cWent in with no expectations and somehow ended up with my favourite co-op experience of all time. Genuinely one of the best games you can ever play with a friend\/friends. Enjoyed getting that platinum,\u201d remarked<\/a> BirdPurgatory.<\/p>\n \u201cThis game came out of nowhere for me and absolutely destroyed my expectations. One of the best in the genre. I will probably play it again to try out the new updates,\u201d added Superbeast06.<\/p>\n \u201cThis game was incredible. Went in with no expectations and it was my personal game of the year. I think it exceeds what Subnautica was able to do in terms of a more campaign-like survival game experience,\u201d said Blitzkreeg21.<\/p>\n You don\u2019t get praise much better than that. Cosmic Companions is available now as long as Abiotic Factor is up to date.<\/p>\n![\"Abiotic](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/aHR0cHM6Ly9ldS1pbWFnZXMuY29udGVudHN0YWNrLmNvbS92My9hc3NldHMvYmx0YmMxODc2MTUyZmNkOWYwNy9ibHQ2ZDFjYjRh.webp\"\/)
