Patch notes:

What’s included in the update?

The Muckingham Files will take you to never-before-seen places from the original universe of the base game, with new characters, locations and stories. Get to know more about your stomping ground and its inhabitants as the most in-demand power washer in town.

Remember the Mauka Aitu Desert? The place where you cleaned the ancient statue and monument, and that old steam train? Well, it’s not just full of aged relics but also home to some more advanced technology – namely a Solar Water Plant and a huge Satellite Dish. It’s down to you to dust off all that sand, for a satisfyingly sparkly finish.

You’ll be glad for a short reprieve to the lush green of Muckingham’s recreation ground, where a filthy Food Truck is spoiling the view. Once you’ve finished, it’ll be the shimmering centrepiece of the park.
