Hey all!

Thank you all so much for your support and feedback since our Lost & Altered update. Our team have spent the last few months working through it all, while also working on something extra special...

We're super happy to say that we've just deployed a brand new build to our Open Beta branch in Steam!

Introducing, the "Fungal Bloom" update!

This new update adds a bunch of new content to the game, all focused around improving your experience both in the Ark, and out on expeditions, so let's take a look at the headlines!

  • A complete overhaul of the Fungal Swamp Biome!
  • A New Weapon
  • 3 New Trinkets
  • 2 New Character-Story Quests
  • NPC Portraits

Plus loads more!

Fire any feedback to us via our Discord!

How to access the beta

  • Go to your Steam game library.
  • Right click on Windblown and click "properties".
  • Select the tab "Betas".
  • In the first dropdown box select "public_beta"
  • Click close and wait for the update to finish downloading.

🚨Remember - This is a BETA version of the game, meaning you may encounter bugs. Make sure to duplicate your save before jumping in. That way you can revert back to the Default Branch whenever you'd like without locking yourself to the new version before its release🚨
