Raft® Survival: Sandbox Game

PvP raft survival

Build a raft, then fight for the ocean. The competitive corner of raft survival: gather with a hook, craft weapons and armour, then take the fight to other players. Raft-versus-raft PvP arenas decide who tops the leaderboard.

How it plays

Build first, fight second

Sandbox keeps the familiar loop — hook, craft, expand — and then adds someone who wants what you have. The building phase is not a break from the fighting; it is preparation for it.

  1. Hook resources out of the water

    The same gathering loop as the rest of the series: what drifts past becomes what you build with.

  2. Set up crafting stations

    Stations turn salvage into dozens of craftable items. What you set up before a battle is what you fight with during it.

  3. Arm yourself properly

    Weapons and armour are crafted, not handed out. Going into a raft fight underequipped is a decision you make in the building phase.

  4. Fight raft against raft

    In PvP you face friends and other players across one or more platforms: move between rafts, damage hostile buildings and fight with what you crafted. Every action scores points — but doubloons only go to the top three, so a careful build matters more than a fast one.

The world

The arenas you fight in

Sandbox keeps the familiar loop — hook resources from the water, build stations, expand the platform — and adds an opponent who wants what you have. In PvP mode you face friends and other players across one or more rafts: move between platforms, damage hostile buildings and fight with crafted weapons. Every action during a battle earns points, but doubloons go only to the top three, so a careful build matters as much as a good fight.
