Hello :ezpotato:

We're going to be beta testing publicly the DLC for the next 10 days or so, starting now.

If you want to join, opt-in the beta-dlc branch on Steam. (right click on Brotato => Properties => Betas => Select the beta-dlc branch)

It contains:

• 14 new characters
  
• 16 new weapons
  
• 30+ new items
  
• 20 new waves with 20+ enemies, 9 elites and 2 bosses
  
• A new mechanic and stat (curse)
  
• 6 new music tracks
  

You'll have to unsubscribe from all mods as they won't work in any of the betas. (more help available in the Discord server if you have issues with that)

The branch will get deleted after the end of the beta and it'll send you back to the main branch. Your progress on the beta will carry over the real DLC when it releases, but you won't get the Steam achievements (like in the current beta).

Do note that the default branch and the two beta and beta-dlc branches use different save files (save.json and save_v2.json), so going back to the main branch the game will load your old save again, until the beta gets merged into the main branch, which will then load the new save again.

For content creators, we've updated the presskit with all the new assets here: https://www.blobfishgames.com/press/brotato/assets

Just like for the beta, please share your feedback and bug reports in the ⁠forums or in the 🔧beta channel of the Discord server. Thanks :potatoheart:

Edit 16.10.24:

The DLC beta will end this Friday (October 18th) at 5pm CEST (3pm UTC). Thanks for all of your feedback and bug reports!

More info about the release date coming soon :voubipog:

Hello,

The DLC is taking longer than anticipated, so we've decided to move the launch to Autumn (currently aiming at the end of October). We're working on it and will share more news when it's ready to be beta tested.

In the meantime, we just released a first version of the free update on the beta branch which includes local coop, 4 new characters, 4 new weapons, 14 new items and many changes and fixes.

You can find the full changelog here. We'd love to hear what you think, please let us know your feedback and report bugs if you encounter them in the ⁠🔧beta channel of the Discord server or here in the forums. Make sure to deactivate all mods before going on the beta branch as it will make it crash on launch.

Thanks for your support and your patience! ːpotatoheartː
