DST in December and the New Year!


Recommended Posts

Hey Everybody. 

We have some things coming up in DST and I thought now would be a good time to give you all a quick update on what we have planned to finish out the year and where we are going in 2019. I am not going to get into a lot of detail here but there is definitely some cool stuff here, we'll post more info as we get closer to the release of these updates. 

Winter's Feast: 

Winter's Feast is coming back this year however we haven't made any substantial changes this time around and we won't be offering new skins.  

However, we do have a special gift for all players that play online during the Winter's Feast event, so make sure you check that out. 

Winter's Feast begins this Thursday morning December 6th (Pacific time). 

Winter's Feast on console is being submitted right now and will come out as soon as it is approved - We expect Thursday for PS4 and Xbox One should be shortly after that. Please note that this is subject to change depending on console approval processes. 

2019 

We had a great time with The Forge and The Gorge, but we're ready to move on to new things for a while. Beginning with Lunar New Year we will return to concentrating on more new game content for Don't Starve Together.

This doesn't mean that The Gorge and The Forge will never return, it's just not where we are going to be focusing for a while.

Year of the Pig King (Lunar New Year):

Similar to the Year of the Gobbler and Year of the Varg, We have an update planned for Lunar New Year with a small set of new skins. This update will remain in the base game and will continue to be playable beyond the holiday. More details will be coming just before that update. 

You can expect this late January or early February, just shortly after Winter's Feast ends.

And then... 

Similar to "A New Reign" Don't Starve Together will once again receive new content updates primarily centered around a elements that progress the world of Don't Starve and the Survivors that find themselves within it. We aren't ready to discuss details at this time about the content in these updates, but we know many of you want to see new game content updates and with the end of The Forge we thought we should let you know that it's coming.

That's sad... I really hoped to get some new character or item skins. On the other hand: I didn't use the new Hallowed Nights & The Forge skins ingame yet.

(But waiting another 365 days for the other 6 winter character skins hurts a bit...)

Huzzah! Quietly hopes for more lore.

Will previous year's skins be available again, like with Forge-2018?
