Besiege is good fun having you construct various mechanical machines for destruction, and now it's all going to get a bit wet in The Splintered Sea expansion. 

Announced for release on May 24th, In The Splintered Sea, players battle through a 10-level oceanic campaign, introducing new block types to bring more chaos to the high seas. Using elements of hydrodynamics, this expansion challenges players to explore new builds capable of above-water combat and undersea exploration. The developers said it was a huge technical challenge for them, one that's been multiple years in the making.

It also brings with it a new sandbox environment, allowing you to sail through a vast archipelago, while you explore ancient ruins, and put your engineering to the test on water courses. Using The Splintered Sea’s eight new aquatic blocks, you can spread your destruction across land and sea!

Not the type of game I would play, but I sure loved watching the crazy stuff people came up with on YouTube. This ought to inspire more craziness
I remember buying Besiege back when it was in Early Access, back in like 2015. As a child of the 90s, I remember when you got a game on a CD or two, and maybe it got an expansion the next year (or two if you were super-duper lucky), and that was it. None of this surprise-new-expansion-multiple-years-later stuff*. I love this new world we're living in.

*As seen with Noita today as well.
