[h2]New Streaming Drops![/h2]
We are adding the Rockjaw Sail to the Nautical collection. For more information on streaming drops and how to get them, check out our support topic here.

[h2]What's Next?[/h2]
The team is continuing to do some work on content and changes before heading into a new content arc. One of our designers describes the next update as "A new biome that pops up in a couple places on the ocean. It's sort of chill... there are some water spiders." So, there's that. Which is nice. We'll have more details as we get closer to the next update. Have fun out there!

A long time ago, before “he” and “he” became “we”, there was a young boy and a monster whose ill-fated meeting would leave them both forever changed. Though Webber's two halves didn't exactly start off on the right foot, he has since grown quite comfortable in his combined state, and takes some solace in the fact that he’ll never truly be alone again.

Webber's character refresh arrives next week - Thursday June 24th (PDT).

Here are the details.

Of course as always, we will also have a new animated short, new skins and we'll add a new item to the Nautical Collection streaming drops as well.

We are still adding more people into the new Klei Advocates program. We will have more information on that next week as well.

One last thing. The "big pile o' spool" is now available on Klei Rewards. You can now buy 1500 spool for 4000 Klei points. Don't spend all your spool right away though, new skins are coming next week! Oh, and here are some points! (expires in 7 days)

See you next week!
