As spring arrives in the Northern Hemisphere, we're not quite done with the cold weather (we got you Southern Hemisphere folks!)!
We're very excited to announce that the first paid DLC for Horticular, Frozen Frontier, will launch on February 28th alongside the free 1.4.0 update to the base game.
So what can we expect to see on update day?
Frozen Frontier
Frozen Frontier will introduce a completely new story on a frozen world that was thought forever lost.
Your task is to help the Cold Council, led by the adorable Frostix, and in exchange you will hopefully learn new things about the Corruption.
DLC Highlights:
- Brand new story featuring frozen gnomes in hours of content.
- Arctic world, posing unique cold-based challenges.
- Completely new quests to progress through.
- New items and creatures befitting colder climates. How about a snowshoe hare?
- Snowfall covering your garden. Mostly as a cozy treat!
- Unique temperature-based expansion mechanic.
- Rely more on keepers who have distinct jobs.
- New upgrades specific to the world.
- Can be accessed from your existing save file.
- Achievements, of course.
- Most items and creatures will find their way back to your main world.
What could these orbs possibly be?
Update 1.4.0
The 1.4.0 update will be free and comes with some new goodies for new and returning players:
- Temperature has found its way to your garden, with new items to create chilly areas.
- Where there's cold, there's snow!
- A new creature and a couple of new items.
- Keeper chimneys finally show cookies are baking inside with the new particle system.
- Other minor QoL improvements and bug fixes.
Introduce a little cold to your original Horticular garden with the free 1.4.0 update.
To wrap up this post I wanted to share the new key art we've had created for the DLC - nothing like a bit of snow fun!
