Get ready to embrace the simple joys of life as you join Sam and John in this cosy and peaceful spinoff. No miasma, no hardships — just pure happiness awaits you. It's time to trade in your swords for shovels and embark on a journey of tranquility with farming, fishing and cooking! 🍛

“I haven’t played Eastward! Do I have to play the base game to get the most out the DLC?”

Eastward: Octopia takes place in a parallel universe, so there's no need to have finished (or even started) Eastward's base game story to enjoy the simple life - you can even play it straight from the menu. However, please note that a copy of Eastward is required to access the DLC.

Lead a peaceful new life: Help Sam and John cultivate a life free from worries. Say goodbye to the chaos of the outside world and immerse yourself in a countryside haven.

🌾 Revitalise the farmstead: Roll up your sleeves and breathe life back into a neglected cottage and its lands. Grow crops, rear (and pet!) adorable animals, forage in the wetlands, wind down with some fishing, and even strike up a conversation with a friendly ghost.

💗 Build a thriving community: Construct and upgrade stores and homes to transform Octopia into a bustling community. Complete culinary requests to attract more familiar faces to the area — some might decide to make Octopia their permanent home!

🍳 Culinary Delights: Utilise farm-fresh ingredients and John's Cookbook to whip up delicious recipes. Invite your neighbours to dinner to share your culinary creations and build connections over the universal language of good food.

🌏 Playable in English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, and Chinese (Simplified and Traditional).

To ensure you're the first to know about any future updates, wishlist Eastward: Octopia DLC on Steam! We can't wait for you to experience the heartwarming adventure that awaits on January 31st!
