Raft Varuna Point: Exploration & Boss Fight

Raft is a game that has been in early access for more than four years. After a long time, the game got released. With the release, the game developers decided to add new content, known as the Final Chapter. The Final Chapter updated the whole game and added new locations. Varuna Point is one of these locations in Raft The Final Chapter.

Varuna Point has several interesting points for you to locate. You can find the Crane Key in Raft to further progress in the story. But exploring isn’t all in Raft, and you can craft a Juicer and get Juicer recipes.

In the latest update, upgrading your Raft has become easier thanks to the addition of Trash Cubes in the Raft. With these, you can make items from the blueprints and decorate your Raft.
