I’m very happy to share our next step for Havendock.
On December 4, we’re launching the Wizard Island DLC! It's a magical detour beyond the edge of the map that you know. You can add it to your wishlist already 🧙
Sail to Asteria, a mysterious isle where wizards experiment with Mana法力 and everyday chores become enchanted! Befriend mages, brew Mana, cast spells, and slowly build an arcane outpost that supports your whole settlement.
New island: Asteria - a self-contained sandbox with its own research and production chains.
Befriend 5 wizards - earn their trust, level them up, and unlock stronger spells and passives.
20 castable spells - buff settlers, buildings, and animals; boost productivity, regen, drop rates, and more.
6 passive abilities - long-term upgrades for your magical economy.
10 new buildings - Mana Shrooms, Mega Mana Shrooms, Mana Extractor, Mana Converter, Mega Mana Converter, Mana Storage, Mana Crystal, Mana Pillar, plus Stone Lantern and a Mysterious Statue.
New resource & currency - gather Mana, forge it into Mana Essence for wizard upgrades and late-game boosts.
New NPC: Wisps - speedy helpers that ferry items between Asteria’s buildings.
My hope is that Asteria feels like a little side garden you can wander into when you want a change of pace! Or you can just... make it rain ducks~
This isn’t the end for Havendock!
I still have another free update lined up for the base game, which includes the New Game Plus update with plenty of new player traits to experiment with.
Q1: Are the changes purely visual?
No, the DLC contains new content in the form of a new island. It contains new buildings, resources and a few new research in the workshop. It even unlocks new equipment in the Forge.
Q2: Is it only for Windows?
No, the DLC follows the same platforms as the base game. If you can play the base game, you will be able to unlock this content with the DLC.
Thanks for sticking with Havendock and giving me the courage to try something new. It's the first time I'll be releasing a DLC. Feel free to share your thoughts or ask questions here or on Discord! I hope Wizard Island brings a bit of sparkle to your settlement.
