A ship has dashed upon the shores of the island and our survivors have recovered a new member to add to their team; Warly! Armed with a variety of rare ingredients and fancy cookware, Warly can't wait to spice up the lives of his newfound taste testers... er, friends, with a full-course dinner of brand new meals and invigorating spices.

Here are his details:

Warly can craft a Portable Crock Pot, Portable Grinding Mill, and Portable Seasoning Station, usable only by him.
The Portable Crock Pot cooks 25% faster and includes new exclusive dishes with unique bonuses and effects.
The Portable Grinding Mill can be used to craft a variety of seasoning powders.
The Portable Seasoning Station combines a prepared dish with seasoning powder to add bonus effects to the food.
Warly has an increased max hunger of 250, but it decreases 20% faster than other characters.
Warly can only eat prepared dishes from a Crock Pot.
Warly remembers the dishes he ate for up to two days and will enjoy them less every time they are repeated.
Added new vegetables, available to all characters: Toma Root, Potato, Asparagus, Pepper, Onion, and Garlic.
Added several new Crock Pot recipes, available to all characters.
Warly is available for free for all DST players.
The Warly Deluxe Wardrobe is $7.99 and includes Warly's Roseate, Victorian and Trawler skin sets.

And, like always, Warly will have an animated short released on the same day. For now, here is some art from the making of that short.

NOTE: Steam has an issue right now and I can't post new images. So for some cool images we put together for this post head over here: https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/109036-warly-makes-landfall-in-dst-next-week/

Hey Everybody,

Dropping in to let you know that Warly will be coming July 25th, I will have a post next week with details about his upcoming skins and info as usual.

In addition I hope to have more info on the upcoming content for Return of Them too.

I understand that this has left console players out of the loop here a bit but we ran into an issue in testing where we found a pretty bad memory issue related to the new oceans. We were left with a situation where we would either have to release the next update without the new ocean and boats and rearrange the lunar islands or spend a bunch of time getting that fixed up so it was good to ship soon.

So, when I have more definitive info on the next live update I will let you all know. We also are working on something else... unannounced that I hope to share soon as well that I think you will all enjoy (especially console).

Once again, sorry for all the timing issues, we're getting it sorted out. Thanks for your patience.

Originally posted by Bigfoot on the official forums.

Hey folks!

With the Willow refresh newly launched, it’s time for the next phase: new game content! I’d like to update you all on our current plan.

Over the next several months, we’ll be releasing a series of game updates available to all players, under the single thematic focus entitled “Return of Them”.

Charlie’s machinations have come to a head as she turns her attention towards the skies - and the mysterious entity that awaits there. Our Survivors will be forced to contend with terrifying monstrosities beyond their comprehension, and yet, there may be a silver lining: their minds and horizons will be expanded under the sublime light of an ancient moon.

Here is an overview of what is available in our first update, Turn of Tides:

• Added a new multiplayer-centric boat mechanic, where players can build and deck out a boat for multiple survivors to travel together on
  
• Added a new boating craft menu
  
• Added the Lunar Island
  
• Added Enlightenment
  
• Added 3 new Lunar Island biomes, along with new creatures, objects, and craftables
  
• For this first update, we’ve focused primarily on building the fundamental tech and infrastructure for Return of Them. Please know that we expect this update to be a bit content light, and over the following months we will be adding more content to both the islands and the sea.

Turn of Tides is available to play in a beta branch today, and will officially launch on June 20th. Head here for more info{/url][url]To access the beta see the instructions here.

In addition to new content, we are preparing for the arrival of the next new character. We’re happy to announce that Wormwood will soon enter the fray, fresh from his adventures in Don't Starve: Hamlet!



Wormwood is coming to Don’t Starve Together on June 6th, and will be priced similarly to Wortox. In addition, anyone who owns Don’t Starve: Hamlet will have access to Wormwood for free.

For the next character refresh, Warly will be sailing into the Constant from Shipwrecked on July 18th, and will be free to all players of Don’t Starve Together.



As with all character updates, Warly will be getting a design refresh and come with new abilities specific to Don’t Starve Together.

And that’s it! Onward and seaward!


What about console?
Since console does not have beta branch functionality, consoles will be getting Turn of Tides at the official launch in June.

When is my favorite character getting a refresh?
We will announce more characters refreshes as we get to them. If you have suggestions and feedback make sure to post them. We are watching and we do use that information to help us decide what we want to do next.

Will my existing worlds be affected if I switch to the beta branch?
No. Save data for the beta branch is kept separate from the live branch at: \\Documents\Klei\DoNotStarveTogetherReturnOfThemBeta

Will my existing worlds work in the beta branch if I copy them over?
Not at this time. For future updates, we will look into the possibility of retrofitting the new content into existing DST worlds, as we did for the A New Reign updates.

Additional notes are now being posted in the Steam forums: https://steamcommunity.com/app/322330/discussions/0/1649919326331054755/

A great big thank you to everyone who participated during our Early Access period. The Don’t Starve community is one of the best to interact with, so full of passion and enthusiasm for all things in the Constant. We have thoroughly enjoyed the journey with you, dropping Wilson and his friends into this world of civilized pigs and dangerous jungles.

As we come out of Early Access, all of the features tested in the beta branch will of course go live for everybody, including player craftable doors, the new Ancient Hulk giant, Wheeler and Wagstaff. The beta branch will still be accessible for a while, but we won’t be updating it anymore.

As a special thank you to all of the Don’t Starve players and fans, Wagstaff has been made available to everyone who has the base game and is not exclusive to the Hamlet DLC.



Now that early access has finished, there are no plans for new features to Hamlet yet, but we will still be putting out updates of bug fixes as they are made. After you have mastered the mountain top plateau, if you are looking for further Don’t Starve challenges, please check in with Don’t Starve Together as there are some old faces being re-made as well some altogether new ones showing up.

Hey everyone!

Here we are with our second character update! We have a few things to share, from Willow’s character refresh, to new skin sales and Twitch campaign.

Here we go!

From the Ashes
Every character has their story, and with each refresh, we will be revealing a bit more of their past. See what memories Willow has to share with you in our latest short:



Willow Refresh
With the memories of her tragic past reignited, Willow has tapped into formidable powers for her childhood friend and protector, Bernie, as well as receiving full fire immunity and other bonuses.

• Willow is now immune to fire damage.
  
• Willow is now more easily frozen (e.g. by Ice Staves or Deerclops).
  
• Willow no longer gets cold from low sanity.
  
• Winter gear is slightly less effective at keeping Willow warm.
  
• Willow takes more damage and loses sanity at freezing temperatures.
  
• Willow takes longer to overheat and less damage when overheated.
  
• Willow takes no burn damage while extinguishing smoldering fires and does it faster than others.
  
• Adding fuel to fires is 50% more effective.
  
• Bernie can now be equipped by Willow for sanity and warmth at the cost of durability.
  
• Bernie grows big and will taunt and fight most hostile creatures when Willow is nearby and insane.
  
• Bernie will still taunt Shadow Creatures when any other player is nearby and insane.
  
• In addition, Willow still gains sanity near fire and can still cook with her Lighter.

Willow’s Guest of Honor, Triumphant, Survivor and Rose Skins can now be purchased and are all now available for purchase. All owners of these classic skins prior to today are now upgraded to an “Heirloom” rarity, with full unraveling value (that is, an Heirloom Elegant can be unraveled for 1350 spool).

Willow also has some new items that can be dropped, weaved or purchased.



The Ghastly Attic Chest can be purchased for $3.99 and contains Ashley, The Cursed Sterling Lighter and the Baleful Lace Parasol. The Willow Deluxe Wardrobe contains 5 of Willow's item sets, including the new "Forlorn Doll" set for $12.99

Drop Changes
We have removed icons, vignettes and profile backgrounds from the drop table. These items are still weaveable, however you will no longer receive them as drops. In addition, we have added about 100 color and slight variants of many existing common drops.

Originally we added the icons, vignettes and profile backgrounds so that we had more items to collect, but as many of these items were seasonal items, it gave the appearance that these were being dropped unintentionally.

New Twitch Campaign
We are getting ready for a new twitch campaign with an entirely new theme.

That's all we have for you this time. As always we will be watching your feedback and bug reports. Have fun out there!
