We're dropping this update a bit early so we can make sure we button up any issues that we didn't catch in testing and then we'll take ourselves a little break. When we return, it will be back to the good stuff with a roadmap likely end of January. 

From all of us at Klei - Thanks for another wonderful year! We'll see you in 2024!

Lots of festive activities provide entertainment for all our Survivors. Visit the Deerclops, See Klaus's Gem Deer! There's fun, food, and treats from the Festive Table, or start your own bakery. And lots more. Winter's feast is fun, forest, and fantasy all rolled into one!

We just got finished with round 1 of our annual Winter Game Jam. Jen, a writer on Don't Starve Together experimented with making some historically accurate Don't Starve Themed holiday cards and while we don't normally share things we make during the game jam, we thought that you might make good use of them. Snowman - WobsterRat - Afraid - RadishWorm

We want to get it out to you a bit earlier than our regular Thursday update so we have time to get things fixed up before we head out to holiday break and so we will be releasing our "Skill Spotlight: Wigfrid & Willow" next week a bit early on Tuesday December 19th.

See you Tuesday!
