Survivors!
Some time has passed since we shared the last details about our upcoming Prosperity expansion. Now is the time to give you the first in-depth look into some of the new features and gameplay aspects.
Demands – Yearning for Prosperity
Most of the new content and features of Prosperity are blended in with the natural overall progression in the game. To get access to the new content you have to build a stable settlement and progress through the technology tree. After researching enough technologies your settlers will become more demanding, reaching for more comfort in their lives.
To communicate their new demands and to usher in this new era in your settlement, your people will ask to upgrade the trusty Town Center to become a City Hall.
The City Hall
After doing so, a new research tab will open up, giving you access to researching the many new buildings and automatisms.

At the same time, your settlers will start issuing their new needs and demands.
Listen closely and abide by their demands to keep them happy. Ignoring them might lead to revolts and even migration.
Your settlers' new demands. For example: the new luxury good coffee
In this case, your people want the luxury of steaming hot coffee. Who would be mad enough to not grant them this wish? Let’s get our researchers to figure out how we can produce this delicious beverage...

We also need to find the coffee plant seed and cultivate it in a field.
Another addition to the huge variety of crops and fields for prosperous farming enthusiasts:
The Coffee Field
Finally, we can produce the coffee in one of our pubs.
Pub UI for Coffee
Did we mention? - Pubs can now be upgraded!
After fulfilling this demand our people will enjoy their coffee and become “hopeful” buying us some time until issuing another demand.
Happiness UI: Hopeful State
The Beacon - A Shining example of Success
With prosperous times come new responsibilities, and so your settlers will eventually ask you to expand and grow your settlement. After all, a new and lasting civilization won’t be built from stagnation. Together with this commitment comes the request to construct a long and lasting building as a shining example of all your progression and accomplishments: The Beacon.
The new Beacon in all its mighty pride
Constructing this building is a massive undertaking and will require several steps, from planning, constructing the base until reaching its final and impressive form. Getting there will be part of the journey, as this task will require many, many resources and manpower to complete.
As a reward, the landmark does not only look breathtaking, but will also be increasing the attractiveness of your whole settlement.

A lot more is awaiting you, yet we won’t spoil everything new in advance, and keep some room for surprises until the full Prosperity release at the end of this month.

Lastly, thank you for all the great support and immense feedback we are receiving since Early Access and Full Release back in March! Keep it up, and stay tuned for more news until the Prosperity Release on October 21!
