Greetings, Viceroys!
Ready to gaze into the fortune-telling ball? Let’s take a glimpse of what’s heading your way in Against the Storm!
New DLC in the works
We’re happy to reveal that we’re working on a new free content update and a DLC. While the release is still months away, we can already share that the DLC will include - among other features - a new biome and a new species: BATS!
Bats are stern and fiercely devoted people. They take pride in enduring what breaks others and cannot stand being favored. Bats excel at metallurgy but find no particular comfort in any type of work.
With this DLC, we’ll complete the species roster we’ve envisioned for the game ever since Bats were first introduced during the community vote a little over two years ago.
You can expect more details and previews of the DLC in the future. We’ll continue developing both the Update and the DLC. Speaking of which…
DLC experimental open alpha test
You can support the development of new content by joining the time-limited open alpha tests of the DLC on Steam. The open alpha begins now and we expect it to be live for 4-6 weeks, depending on the feedback we receive.
Important: the testing is voluntary and there are no incentives for participation. You may encounter bugs and the balance may need adjusting. All the new assets are placeholders and programmer art, and the content is available only in English.
If, despite these warnings, you’re eager to participate in the alpha test, please follow the instructions in this thread:
How to participate in the DLC open alpha test
After trying the alpha, feel free to share your feedback in the dedicated DLC open alpha forum on Steam or our Discord server’s #experimental channels.
Thank you for your support, and have fun!
May the storm be gentle on you,
Eremite Games
