Independent publisher Wired Productions and acclaimed solo developer Tomas Sala have announced that ShipShaper is getting a major free Early Access update on Steam, bringing multiplayer combat and persistent arenas to the creative shipbuilding sandbox on November 19, 2026. This update will allow players to design their own vessels, put them through their paces and put them to the test against friends in naval battles.
ShipShaper is a standalone creative shipbuilding sandbox, built around the freedom to design, experiment and bring incredible ships to life, with a deep, physics-driven simulation. Players will be able to create their own ships, master the physics and battle their creations in online arenas for naval combat and racing. The update will be available as a free update on Steam Early Access, where the game is available now.
