Announcement: Monster Sanctuary Free DLC & a new Community Monster Contest!
Monster Sanctuary · published
Hello, Monster Keepers!
Today, we have several exciting announcements to share with everyone.
Monster Sanctuary Free DLC coming 2022
We are very happy to announce that a free DLC for Monster Sanctuary is in the works! It will add a new area to the game, as well as new Monsters and more. Be the first Monster Keeper in history to uncover the Forgotten World and its secrets! Catch a variety of ancient Monsters that were long thought to be extinct.
The free Forgotten World DLC is coming to all platforms in 2022, between Q2 and Q3.
Public Community Monster Contest
We are starting a new Community Monster Contest today! We were so happy with how the previous Monsters Contests went, that we decided it only made sense to launch a sixth contest for our free DLC (for a list of all previous Community Contest winners, check out this older post on our Kickstarter page: Community Contest Winners).
This contest will be open to all of our fans! So anyone can submit their Monster designs as well as vote on them. The contest will be held on our Discord server, just as the previous contests - so you will have to join our server if you'd like to participate.
Once you've joined, please check out the #contest-rules channel! Everything you need to know about the rules of the contest is written there, like how your Monster submission should look like. The submission period is open from today until Monday, October 4th at 9:00am PDT. You are also able to register as a voter during this time, so please don't forget to do that as well.
As with the previous contests, there will be three winners. Two of them will be the two Monsters with the most votes. The third winner will be directly selected by us, the developers of the game.
The winning Monsters will be part of the free Forgotten World DLC. Depending on the individual designs, they will be either added to the new area, or they will be added to older, existing areas of the game. This means that we encourage you to make your design fitting to the "Forgotten World" area (looking ancient, prehistoric or otherwise fitting for this area) - but it is not a requirement of the contest! We will expect there to be a good mix of both regular designs as well as designs that follow the theme of the new area.
This is your chance to create something and make it a part of Monster Sanctuary! We can't wait to see all the amazing Monster designs!
Monster Sanctuary Update 1.3
We'd also like to announce that the next update for Monster Sanctuary (update 1.3) is in the works as well. This will be a smaller update, focussing mainly on bug fixes and balancing changes, while we are working on the Forgotten World DLC. It will also start a new PvP season. Expect this update to come out on all platforms later this year.
PvP Tournament
We'd also like to let you know that the next community-organized PvP tournament is in the sign-up phase right now as well (until September 12th). You can find out more about it and register for it on their Discord server:
Monster Sanctuary Tournament Circuit
Sersch, the creator of moi rai, will be participating in this tournament as well! Join for a chance to face off against the person who created Monster Sanctuary.
