A friend in need is a friend indeed, and these friends have some incredibly useful resources to offer if you can prove yourself to be a top rancher.īonus tip: The Lab expansion may have a high price tag, but the usefulness of all the slime science gadgets it has to offer makes it well worth the investment. Complete Range Exchange requests not only for the extra money and resources they provide, but to build relationships with other ranchers. Remember those other intergalactic entrepreneurs I mentioned earlier? The Range Exchange is the best spot to meet, trade, and befriend other ranchers out there.

A well-fed slime will happily stay in its corral, but some slimes have a tendency to hop over the top of the low corral walls (I’m lookin’ at you, tabby!) and a loose slime on the ranch can spell disaster if left unattended. If you’re having trouble keeping slimes from escaping, try saving up for high walls and air nets. Ranch plots are another handy piece of tech that will make managing slimes a breeze. The jetpack is one of the handiest tools if you love to explore, so grab that early on and let the sky be the limit! While the vacpack was free, water tanks, jetpacks, and extra tank storage are not. Keep an eye on your profits, as 7Zee will have a number of upgrades available for you to purchase once you get a handle on the basics. Use your vacpack to transport slimes and plorts, manage crops, and defend yourself from the dangers out on the range. You start off equipped with one of the handiest (and probably the only free thing you’ll ever get from them) pieces of 7Zee tech out there: a vacpack.

Slime Rancher launches on PS4 tomorrow, so we don’t have much time! Let’s get started! Life on the Ranch I trust that you’ll be able to handle the basics, so I’m going to give you a few tips I wish I had known before I rushed out into the untamed wilds of the Far, Far Range.

The range is filled with other intergalactic entrepreneurs who already have a leg up on the tricks of Plort Market prices, optimal largo combinations, and the best uses of a drone. It’s up to you to get your ranch up and running, discover the secrets of the Far, Far Range, and stake your claim in the strange business of slime ranching! Each type of slime has unique behaviors that you will need to learn if you plan on sticking around. The range is covered with countless slimes wiggling and jiggling around every corner. In Slime Rancher, you play as Beatrix LeBeau: a plucky, young rancher who sets out for a life a thousand light years away from Earth on the Far, Far Range. Hello there! I’m incredibly excited to be part of the official welcoming committee for those of you looking to find success as a slime rancher!
