Timberborn lore trailer and 1.0 release date

[p]Hello, everyone![/p][p][/p][p]You knew Timberborn 1.0 was coming… but you didn’t know when. Today, we can finally reveal the date, and we’d like to do that in a pretty cinematic way - with the official Timberborn lore trailer narrated by none other than Shaun Dooley. Starting with 1.0, the video will also be the game's intro. Enjoy![/p][p][/p][previewyoutube][/previewyoutube][p][/p][p]That’s right, Timberborn 1.0 goes live on…[/p][p][/p][h2]March 5, 2026![/h2][p]Wrapping up the Early Access journey - after over 4 years! - is huge for us. With seven major updates done, Timberborn has evolved a lot. If you’re a returning player, here’s just a glimpse at what changed during that time.[/p]
  • [p]The nature-loving Folktails and the industrious Iron Teeth are now vastly different beaver factions, with separate food production chains, unique buildings, and technology.[/p]
  • [p]We implemented 3D water physics, 3D terrain, and expanded Timberborn’s hallmark vertical architecture and terraforming.[/p]
  • [p]We added badwater and a new dangerous season, badtides.[/p]
  • [p]We added bots and broadened the building roster across the board, from workshops to decorations.[/p]
  • [p]Faction-specific wonders now complement the game’s sandbox loop as end-game goals.[/p]
  • [p]We now have mass transportation systems in place: speedy Ziplines for Folktails and cutting-edge Tubeway tech for the Iron Teeth.[/p]
  • [p]The game now features 16 built-in maps, and the map editor is better than ever, with our super-active, super-friendly community adding more maps each day.[/p]
  • [p]Speaking of which, the game now has official mod and Steam Workshop support.[/p]
  • [p]There are also huge performance gains, UI improvements, and much, much more![/p]
[p]The list above doesn’t even mention what the actual 1.0 update brings to the table - but that, fortunately, is just a month away. (If you don’t want to wait, you can always jump onto the experimental branch and try the new stuff early.)[/p][p]Whether you’re a new or returning player, we can’t wait for you to join us on March 5, 2026![/p][p][/p][h2]Timberborn Creator Program[/h2][p]The upcoming launch of Timberborn 1.0 is a big deal for us, and we want to get the word out as wide as possible - so please consider letting your favourite content creators know that the beavers are coming for them.[/p][p]
