APICO Update 3.0: What Lies Beeneath
Next week, you’ll be able to take your beekeeping skills to a whole new level! A new update, featuring an ocean of content for the beloved beekeeping sim APICO, is coming to PC next week! On September 26, Update 3.0: What Lies Beeneath will invite you to dive into the crystal blue waters surrounding the APICO archipelago and explore its depths. New areas, forageables, quests, and new bees are yours to discover deep bee-low the watery abyss.
APICO combines resource gathering, biology, and minigames with ideas from real-life and fantasy beekeeping and gardening, as it teaches players about the ins and outs of maintaining a healthy hive and the importance of our irreplaceable pollinating pals. The islands of APICO were once abuzz with different species of bees, and it’s up to players to rediscover lost species, cross-breed new ones, and repopulate each unique bee-ome. Progressing further into the game may also uncover some forgotten secrets.
Also, a portion of the games’ profits goes towards bee conservation. Full details about these efforts can be found here: https://tngineers.com/charity.
New features coming to APICO in Update 3.0: What Lies Beeneath include:
- New areas: Dive deep down to the bottom of the ocean and discover a new bee-ome with new areas to explore that include deep-sea flora and fauna, a coral reef system, and more!
- New Bees: Discover, collect, build homes, and breed new species of bees found only in the furthest depths of the ocean, and collect their resources for craftables and quests.

- New Fishing Mechanic: Skipper’s dad, Captain, arrives at the archipelago to teach you the ins and outs of a new mechanic — fishing!
- And More: New quality-of-life improvements, including a newly added trash can and nearby chest auto-deposit, will help your beekeeping bee-come more efficient than ever!
