Welcome to The Forge

[JoeW 20,443]

The Forge is now LIVE! 

With the Ancient Gateway activated our survivors find themselves trapped in a hostile world of fire and battle. They’ll need to team up to defeat the Battlemaster’s army and his champions if they have any hopes of returning home. 

The Forge is a free limited time 6-player co-op challenge, where the goal is to try and defeat the Grand Forge Boarrior in an arena. The only way to survive will be to work together.

The Forge is played on official Klei servers that are available only during the event. There are no community hosted servers during this event. 

What else is in The Forge?

• This year's Forge has had many balance, content and progression changes. 
• Character skins, emotes, item skins and more. Including skins from last season with hundreds of items.
• Free on-demand dedicated event servers (Forge Only).
• Simple Matchmaking with friends / community groups.
• Event drop system (Forge only).
• And more!
• And new for Season 2 we have added community and personal goals replacing last years achievements. Complete matches to help the community unlock new bosses and items!

 

F.A.Q.

Is The Forge free?
Yes! Events are free for everyone who owns DST. Players will have the option to purchase a single character’s Magmatic Skin Set for $2.99, or the entire Magmatic Chest collection for $12.99. 

We hope that with this mechanism, we can both continue creating great free content while also supporting the development team. In addition, this method of funding allows us to provide content to all our players, instead of splitting the player community if we implemented it with a DLC paywall.

Why is The Forge temporary?

We get this question a lot. The Forge runs on official servers that we pay for and provide free of charge. Playing on official servers means that we have more control over the rewards we can provide during the event. Because we designed the event around this, we designed the gameplay to be played for a short time. 

When does the Forge end? 

The Forge will end December 3rd.  

Will the Forge be available on console?

The Forge is not available on Consoles at this time. We are looking into options for bringing to console and we will announce more information when we have it.

Time to go overtime and lose some sleep! FOR THE FORGE!^{(Magma skeledork skin to draw later)}

[Serph 456]

Beyond community unlocks and borila attacks what actual "balance changes" did Forge have? Where the characters changed at all?

(Please someone tell me Wendy is not meme tier bad anymore.)

This came a lot earlier than I thought, I thought it would take atleast 4 more hours before Forge and Hamlet would come, thanks!

Just bought all of the new skins. I just wished there was 1 more skin that I was hoping would be added.

Yes, I would like the option to buy everything like in the Gorge and Hallowed Nights.

Having them available on steam would also make them giftable.
