Dig Island Is Now in Early Access!

Hello Survivors,

Dig Island is now available in Early Access on Steam, launching with a limited-time 10% discount to celebrate the start of the journey.

You wake up on a tropical island after a plane crash, with only a shovel, limited resources, and one clear goal: rebuild your plane and escape. Digging, crafting, exploration, and survival are tightly connected, and every decision you make shapes how far you can go.

Dig to Progress

Digging is the main way forward.

You start near the surface, but valuable resources lie deeper underground. Every shovel hit drains Energy, mistakes cost Health, and ignoring food builds Hunger, turning every descent into a calculated risk.

Collect, Craft and Rebuild

Everything you gather feeds into crafting.

Collected materials, mined ores, and caught fish are processed through multiple crafting stations to create food, tools, upgrades, equipment, and advanced devices. Crafting, repairing, and assembling the broken parts of your crashed plane is the key to escaping the island.

Power Is Everything

Your base runs on energy.

Crafting stations consume power, generators require fuel, and progression unlocks more advanced energy solutions. Solar panels can provide continuous power once repaired, helping stabilize and partially automate your base systems.

Explore Alone or Together

Dig Island supports solo play and co-op.

Up to four players can explore, dig, manage resources, and survive together. Cooperation makes deep digging safer and large-scale projects easier to handle.

Early Access Journey

Dig Island is actively evolving. Early Access allows us to refine balance, expand content, and improve systems with community feedback while keeping the core experience fully playable.

See you underground.
