RELATED: Green Hell VR is Available Now on Oculus Quest 2
The Animal Husbandry update is a free addition to the game that allows players to enhance their bases in Green Hell with a variety of tameable animals. Using darts imbued with the poison from poison dart frogs, the player can knock out capybaras, peccaries, and tapirs and bring them to the newly craftable animal pens. By regularly feeding the animals and cleaning their pens, players earn the trust of the animals and can breed them to grow the population. Most importantly, animals that have built sufficient trust will allow players to pet them.
Along with taming animals is the newly arrived beekeeping mechanic, where players can transplant the queen from a beehive in the wild to build their own hive for easy access to nutritious honey. The Animal Husbandry update is the first major update since the addition of a virtual reality mode for Green Hell, which takes immersion to a whole new level as players come face to face with the trials and tribulations of jungle survival in virtual reality. Green Hell in VR has intuitive virtual controls that have players physically striking a piece of flint or bashing a coconut against a hard object to break it open.
Green Hell is also available at a 30% discount thanks to Steam’s Survival Fest sale event which is running from August 1 to August 8. Tons of similar survival games like The Forest, Subnautica, and ARK: Survival Evolved are available at steep discounts for the duration of the event.
