For a limited time players that login during February 13 through February 23 will receive the Lovely Bouquet when logging into the game for the first time during this period. We hope you have a lovely week!
Bug Fixes
Fixed the Homespun Watering Can having an outline for its icon.
Let's get ready to slumber!! The Year of the Bunnyman has begun!
To celebrate the Year of the Bunnyman we have added a new activity in the game, some new item drops and some new streaming items!
Summon Cozy Bunnymen to the surface for a slumber party.
Join in the frivolity of pillow fighting and "spin the carrot".
Formally challenge one or more Bunnymen to a Pillow Fighting Pit for a chance to win Lucky Gold Nuggets.
Buy different grades of Pillow to both arm and armor yourself for the Pit.
Purchase old items and new snacks as well as new Rabbit Lamps to decorate your base.
We've also added some new skins to the game.
The Masquerader Survivors Chest can be purchased in a chest for $8.99 usd and contains skins for: Willow, Warly, Wortox, Wes, and Woodie. As always, these items will be available as drops in game and are also weaveable using spool.
The Mosaic Mushlamp will join the Art Nouveau collection. Check out the post for more details.
And that's it for now. The team is well on its way to finishing out the roadmap and some of the team is even working on content for the 2023 content schedule. We'll have a new roadmap coming up rather soon. You're going to need to hold out a little longer but I promise, it will be worth the wait. Bold statement, I know but we're pretty excited and we think you will be too. See you next time!
The table is set for Winter’s Feast, and this year something new is being cooked up for our Survivors. They're going to have to work for it, of course.
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!
An Uncommon Holiday
Winter skins have appeared to get our survivors into the winter spirit, and for a limited time, the chances of receiving a rare gift have been substantially increased!
Festive Holiday Attire
For the duration of the Winter's Feast event, players will have access to a free set of skins. The Yuletide Overcoat, Yuletide Frock, Jingly Tophat, Gingerbread Chest, and the Plum Pudding Cap.
New Snowfallen Skins
And keeping with Winter tradition, we have added new skins to the Snowfallen collection.
Complete Snowfallen Survivors Chest ($15.99) This Snowfallen Chest contains the complete Snowfallen series of survivor skins.
Snowfallen Survivors Chest, Part III ($9.99) This Snowfallen Chest contains skins for: Woodie, Wes, Maxwell, Wigfrid, Wormwood, Wurt, and Wanda.
Login Bonus Item:
And finally, players who login during the event will also be granted the Winter Hibearnation Vest.
And finally!
We're getting ready for a long Winter's Nap - but when we return we're going to have the next Lunar New Year event and it's almost time for our final character refresh and a new Roadmap!
DST just keeps getting bigger and better every year and we're looking forward to our new plans in 2023 and we can't wait to share.
That's it for now, we hope you all have a great Winter's Feast and we'll see you next year!
Along with looking forward, this time of the year we also reflect on what we’ve done. It’s been a fantastic adventure not just this year, but each year since we launched Don’t Starve Together back in 2016.
The Steam awards have once again opened for nominations, and we thought we’d ask players to please consider nominating Don't Starve Together for the Steam Awards 2022 in the Labor of Love category.
The former Nightmare King suddenly finds himself facing his past... and a choice about his future. Everyone take your seats, the Amazing Maxwell's next act is about to begin.

Added a spell wheel UI for reading the Codex Umbra in your inventory.

Shadow Servant
Shadow Duelist
Maxwell now controls up to six puppets at a time.
These improved puppets automatically aggro or work within their summoned area for a set duration before expiring.

This includes, but is not limited to, most things crafted from Shadow Magic or Ancient Pseudoscience.
Maxwell now summons the following crowd control shadows:
Shadow Sneak

All shadows can be summoned on the ocean.
Maxwell can craft the Magician's Top Hat and Magician’s Chest.
Magician's Top Hat, Magician's Chest, and Shadow Chester are all connected to one shadow dimensional storage in the Forest, and another one while in the Caves.
Additional changes
Controller twin-stick aiming for AoE targeting spells.
Inventory bar actions, such as dropping, refuelling, and repairing items, can now be performed on controllers while auto-pause is enabled.
AoE attack hit boxes for Ancient Sentrypede, Eye of Terror, Twins of Terror, and Celestial Champion have been updated to account for the size of their targets.
Adjusted the tracking of Twins of Terror’s dash attacks accordingly.
As always, a big Thank You to all players that checked out the refresh during beta and submitting their feedback and bug reports!

And that's it for now!
As we approach the end of the year we still have a bit more to go to finish out the 2022(3) roadmap. We have been talking internally about what's coming up in the next roadmap and while we still have some details to iron out, we're already very excited about 2023! We have been watching the feedback from players regarding the long-term hopes for the game. While it's going to be difficult to wait for more info, it's going to be even harder for us to keep it under wraps, but we'll be posting up a new roadmap at the beginning of next year!
Along with looking forward, this time of the year we also reflect on what we’ve done. It’s been a fantastic adventure not just this year, but each year since we launched Don’t Starve Together back in 2016.
