The update gives the player the freedom to explore an abandoned mining town and its new mines, with a much larger set of mystery events and paths, which lead to different endings.

Of the decision to continue expanding Cave Digger's mystery-filled game world, Mekiwi VR Producer Jani Kaipainen said, "We felt the game was not finished yet. We had many ideas in our mind and many also came from the community. As we got good feedback for the Elevator part we decided to move on and develop a massive update with many many new treasures and mechanics. Nevertheless, we want to show to those who have been supporting us and future players alike that we care about our community's voice. Many YouTubers and other influencers have also been very helpful, which we are also really grateful. Also, the Discord channel is active and you are welcome to join"
