Pixpil and Chucklefish have surprised fans with the announcement of an all-new farm-sim DLC for the pixel-perfect RPG Eastward. Titled ‘Eastward: Octopia’, the DLC takes place in a parallel world to the main game and follows the adventures of Sam and John as they settle down to revitalize a piece of rundown farmland.
In this exciting addition, players can look forward to planting crops, tending to animals, cooking meals, and even going fishing. The nearby town of Seagull Town will also grow alongside their farm, introducing familiar NPCs and allowing players to construct and upgrade stores and homes. As the town flourishes, more characters will flock to the area.
The DLC will offer approximately 15-20 hours of pixel-perfect gameplay and will be playable in multiple languages. However, no precise release date has been provided so far, with a vague estimate of ‘this winter’. It is worth noting that players will need to have purchased the Eastward base game to access the DLC.
For those who haven’t yet delved into the world of Eastward, this upcoming farm-sim DLC provides an enticing reason to give it a try. With its charming Zelda-like gameplay and stunning visuals, Eastward continues to impress players.
Keep an eye out for more information about the Eastward: Octopia DLC in the following months, and if you’re excited about this upcoming addition, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments.
