The upcoming RimWorld DLC, titled Odyssey, has been officially confirmed, exciting fans of the colony simulation genre. Since its launch in 2018, RimWorld has become a favorite among players for its intricate gameplay, comparable to titles like Dwarf Fortress and Oxygen Not Included. The new DLC promises to significantly expand the game’s possibilities, offering new ways to engage with the universe.
A standout feature of the Odyssey DLC is the introduction of a customizable gravship. Different from the single ship available in the base game, the gravship enables players to create a mobile second base that can travel across vast distances. Players will need to develop protective systems, including oxygen and heating, to survive in the uncharted areas of space.
In addition to the gravship, the Odyssey DLC will offer new environments, including ruined cities, grasslands, and harsh volcanic landscapes. These new settings will come with a variety of landmarks, numerous animals, and expansive quests, as well as distinctive gear such as a sawed-off shotgun and a golden revolver.
Moreover, players can look forward to the free 1.6 update, which will introduce significant performance improvements, quality-of-life changes, enhanced base-design tools, and a host of new features, including quirky additions like flying chickens.
The RimWorld 1.6 update and Odyssey DLC are set to launch together in July 2025. For fans eager to learn more or to wishlist the Odyssey DLC, detailed information is available on Steam.
As the RimWorld community eagerly anticipates these new updates, players can continue to enhance their gaming experience through various mods. Overall, the additions promise to bring fresh excitement to an already engaging gaming experience.
