Is it Possible to Swim or Dive in Lethal Company?

At this moment, it’s sadly not possible to swim in Lethal Company. This paragraph’s “good news” part is that you can walk in shallow waters. But try not to overstay your welcome because nature is merciless, and you can’t beat it (there have been some failed attempts in the past).

If you go into deep waters, you will die. 

As a result of this mishap, you will get fined by the Company because your crewmates will not be able to retrieve your corpse. So yeah, the entry to a swimming pool in Lethal Company is even more expensive than the “ultimate price to pay,” as dark as it may sound.

Why Can’t You Swim or Dive in Lethal Company?

While there were no official responses on the matter, my educated guess is that swimming was not a development priority at this stage of game development. After all, the game is developed by a single person. Yeah, you’ve read that right. For all intents and purposes, lore-wise, it could be impossible to swim due to the weight of the gear every employee has on them.

Will It Be Possible to Swim or Dive in Lethal Company in the Future?

I can’t say if we will be able to swim or dive in Lethal Company in the future. Since one person is currently developing Lethal Company, implementing this feature might take a while, if it is planned to be implemented at all. Coding is not easy.

If you are new to Lethal Company, you should familiarize yourself with all Terminal commands since the Terminal is one of the core mechanics in the game.
