Starbound update executes final character wipe

The recent update for Starbound introduced a bevy of new features including the highly anticipated final character wipe.

Still in its early stages of beta, Starbound previously used a system that required them to erase all player characters and ships with each update. According to the Starbound website, Chucklefish is now using a system that will no longer require them to erase characters.

According to Chucklefish, they said that “this patch will wipe everything– characters, ships and worlds. It will definitely be the last time we’ll need to wipe characters or ships, and will hopefully be the last time we’ll need to wipe worlds.”
