Sandbox Survival ‘Necesse’ Gets Major Graphics Overhaul in Update on August 10

Breathing life into a project 10 years in the making.

Developer Fair Games last week announced that their sandbox survival game ‘Necesse’ will be getting a major graphics overhaul on the 10th of August. This update brings about well over 3200 plus redrawn sprites that give the game a fresh breath of air since its release nearly five years ago.

Have a gander below for more details on Necesse and the upcoming update. Necesse is available on PC via Steam for $14.99 USD.


Mads Skovgaard, the lead behind the popular sandbox survival game ‘Necesse’ has been on an incredible journey with his creation; from a solo hobby project, to a studio of 8 and now over 1 million copies sold! Necesse’s upcoming major update promises to enhance the gaming experience for both longtime fans and newcomers, reflecting the dedication and ambition of the expanded Fair Games team, and it will be available worldwide on the 10th of August, 2024.

“10 years ago I started to develop Necesse as a hobby project. 5 years ago Necesse came out in Early Access on Steam. 1 year ago I started my game studio Fair Games and expanded it from myself, to 8 passionate developers. 6 months ago Necesse reached 1 million copies sold worldwide. And now we’re releasing the Graphics Update, giving the game a completely new breathtaking look. It’s been a wild ride,” states Mads Skovgaard, Creator of Necesse.

Fair Games developed Necesse as a multiplayer game focusing on bringing all the different kinds of gamers together:

  • Are you looking for a challenge? Take on any of the 18 different bosses Necesse has to offer. 
  • Taking it easy after a long day of work? Build on your cozy base and maybe do a bit of fishing.
  • Want to min-max and micromanage? Recruit 50 settlers (or more, if you like), adjust their work priorities to maximum efficiency, achieving the ideal facto- .. Happy settlement. I meant to say happy settlement.
  • Are you a born explorer? Necesse has 5 biomes, 10 mysterious cave types and 10 unique endgame Incursions just waiting for you. 

So whatever type of gamer you or your friends are, Necesse is a game that has it all!

The new trailer showcases Necesse’s hero and the friends he made along the way, taking on a bunch of the challenges Necesse has to offer. Including adventuring through the deep caverns, expanding and defending a grand settlement and taking on powerful end-game bosses to reap their juicy loot! It features old and new content together, combined with the fresh new look the Graphics Update has brought. 1 year ago the team started to expand Fair Games which included recruiting  two seasoned game-artists that could take the overall look of Necesse to the next level.

After having redrawn 3298 assets, Fair Games are proud to showcase their hard work.

Main features

  • All in-game assets replaced with new juicy ones
  • Uncapped Multiplayer
  • Base building and settlement management
  • Challenging End Game

Necesse is one of the most anticipated games set to leave Early Access before long with more than 400.000 wishlists and a dedicated community of players and modders.
