Welcome to
The Vault.
The Vault brings the atmosphere of an LA gang-owned nightclub to Beyond Sandbox. A custom hip-hop tracklist sets the mood while NPCs dance around the club. Explore the dance floor, stop at the bar, head up to the balcony, or step into the lounge.

Gaze tracking & blinking
Eyes that follow
the action.
NPCs now track what is happening around them with their eyes. Combined with blinking, these small movements bring more life to their faces and make close-up encounters feel more natural.
A more natural expression.
Blinking adds subtle movement that makes characters feel less static.

THC & body simulation
A high
that builds.
The THC effect works with our body simulation, which models organs, the blood system, and how effects develop in the body. The high builds progressively and can combine with other states, including drunkenness.
06
Restricted areas
Not every room
is open to you.
New restricted zones can be recognized by certain NPCs. The security guard in the private office, for example, can recognize when you enter an area without authorization. Where you go now matters to the people watching it.
07
Molotovs & burning effects
Turn up
the heat.
Molotovs bring together cloth physics, breakable bottles, and burning liquid. The towel moves with the physics simulation, and when the bottle breaks, the burning liquid spills in a randomized pattern. The impact does not play out the same way every time.
A new burning
NPC state.
This update also introduces a new burning state for NPCs, extending the fire interactions introduced in Part 1. The Molotov asset render is also included in the item gallery above.
08
The people behind the club
Southside
Street Family.
The Vault belongs to the SSF: a neighborhood-rooted gang built on loyalty, shared history, and local hustles.
Five connected characters bring distinct personalities and voices to the family. Internal conflicts and rivalries with Blacktop Mob and the Road Reapers introduce another part of the world's lore.
