The intergalactic farming adventure Lightyear Frontier has received a significant update. FRAME BREAK and Amplifier Studios have announced the release of the free Trailblazer update, available now on PC via Steam, and arriving soon for Xbox and Game Pass Ultimate users. This update introduces a range of features, including a faster mobility option, new customization tools, and a highly requested third-person farmer mode.
New Mobility with Trailblazer Mode
The update’s highlight is the Trailblazer Mode, which adds a four-wheeled transformation for player mechs. Unlockable through the in-game upgrade depot, this feature enhances travel across the game’s expansive landscapes, allowing players to boost, drift, and navigate custom-built roads more efficiently.
Expanded Customization Options
Customization also receives an upgrade with the addition of the Outfit Locker. Players can now personalize their characters with new helmet styles and color options. Other gameplay enhancements include extended day lengths and the introduction of the Seed Splicer blueprint, enabling the creation of multiple splicers to boost crop yields and increase the chance of discovering rare plants.
Quality-of-Life Improvements
A third-person farmer mode offers a new perspective for exploration and interactions outside the mech. Players can now switch views, enhancing immersion while navigating the vibrant world of Lightyear Frontier. Additionally, the update introduces a quality-of-life feature that allows players to instantly return to their farm via the in-game map once per day.
We’re excited for players and newcomers to dive into the Trailblazer update and discover new ways to traverse their planet and express themselves. This is the next step towards our full launch, and we can’t wait to share more exciting news and updates as we head into a monumental 2025.
