Animalia Survival update 177.00 expands Savanna_D4 map

Animalia Survival's update 177.00 is live on the Steam Old Version (Default) and Testpublic branches; the Crossplayer version continues on update 138.0. This build focuses on the Savanna_D4 map.

Savanna_D4's overall map size has been expanded. New additions include a coastline and beach area, mountain rock formations across the map, and carcasses scattered around the world — including a shark carcass on the beach. The update also improves the Ultra Dynamic Sky system for better lighting and fixes tree LOD rendering distance.

TLVL2 is preparing to make its return, but final adjustments are still underway for performance, stability, and overall quality. The team says more screenshots and videos will be shared before the map officially comes back.

The Tanzania Map is getting a new biome: the Canyon. The area will add new environments, rock formations, exploration routes, and unique details. It is still in development, with visual improvements, vegetation, wildlife, points of interest, and optimization to follow until the biome is complete.

The mobile side of Crossplay is being rebuilt and optimized rather than just expanded. The goal is improved performance, broader device compatibility, faster loading times, and overall better optimization so mobile can keep pace with Crossplay's evolution. More progress details are planned soon, and the team thanked the community for feedback and asked for patience while the improvements continue.
