ADA feature is a surprising discovery for many devoted players.
With the 1.0 update, it’s a great time for new players to explore Satisfactory’s hidden features.

Players of Satisfactory have come across a fascinating feature that allows them to talk with an AI chatbot, something they didn’t know they could interact with in the game. Developed by Skovde, Sweden-based Coffee Stain Studios, Satisfactory is a first-person, open world exploration title where players are dropped onto an alien planet with a handful of tools in a bid to exploit the planet’s natural resources to construct a variety of factories, items and machines.

Debuting on the Epic Games Store in March 2019, Satisfactory finally left early access after five years and ushered in a thrilling era for the highly popular strategy and simulation game with its 1.0 update in September. Now, it seems, fans are only just finding out about one of Satisfactory‘s best kept secrets, and it’s blowing players’ minds.

Satisfactory: How to Get Steel

In Satisfactory, Steel production unlocks by completing a milestone during Phase 2, but the specifics remain unclear.

In a post on Reddit, user Woodmonster has shared with the community a neat feature they have found that many Satisfactory players may not have known even exists in the game. According to the poster, players can talk to ADA, an AI-powered chatbot platform, using Satisfactory’s in-game chat. It’s not known if ADA has always been made available in the game or if it was implemented with the 1.0 release, but either way, it’s a really cool discovery. Even though there’s a variety of interesting things to do in Satisfactory, coming up with lists of questions to see what ADA’s response could be, might now become a top priority among curious players.

Satisfactory Players Discover In-Game A.I. Chatbot

Many of the comments in the post have expressed shock at only just learning about this “hidden” feature in Satisfactory. One commenter said that the game just continues to surprise them, while another asked if the post on Reddit was the first time others have learned about the ADA feature. While it’s currently unknown if other players had previously been using the chatbot before the Reddit post or if this was a recent discovery, it’s crystal clear that the game is much loved by its devoted community and also a reason why Satisfactory became such a huge hit on Steam.

There’s never been a better time for players to jump into the world of Satisfactory, especially with the game’s 1.0 update, which includes plenty of fresh content from new geysers to how recipes work. For new players to Satisfactory who would now like to unearth any other features the game might be concealing, pioneers can start their adventure either by themselves or with up to three other people, making the factory simulation game a great choice for chilled out solo play or co-op escapades with friends.
