Brace for electrical impact: The Bionic Booster Pack is out today! 

This DLC brings a surge of power-themed content to the ONI universe, including new portable power banks, remote-operation buildings, bionic Duplicants, bionic boosters, robo-pilot rocket modules, an airborne work drone, new elements, 70+ new blueprints (aka cosmetic skins), and more! 

The Bionic Booster Pack can be purchased for 7.99USD and is available now on Steam, WeGame and Epic. 

Grab some power to-go, hook up standalone power grids in isolated corners of your colony, and manage them from anywhere on the planetoid with remote-work buildings and new bionic recruits whose idea of resting after a long shift is to practice the Zen art of microchip programming at bedtime.  But when you see a Bionic Duplicant losing their cool, steer clear! Their stress response can be very...shocking. 

If you own more than one DLC, mix things up by using the Scramble DLC tool when making a new game! It works for The Bionic Booster Pack as well as past and future additions to the ONI universe. 



What's in this DLC? 

• Portable power banks!
• New power bank buildings: Compact Discharger, Large Discharger, Power Bank Recharger.
• New remote work buildings: Remote Controller and Remote Worker Dock.
• Six new Bionic Duplicants! 
• Bionic boosters!
• New Stress and Overjoyed responses: Stunner, Flash Mobber, and Rainmaker.
• New bionic-themed buildings: Gunk Extractor and Lubrication Station. 
• Other new buildings: Soldering Station and Data Miner.
• New Robo-Pilot Module for Spaced Out! and Robo-Pilot Capsule for base game. 
• New Flydo work drone. 
• New elements: Phyto Oil and Gunk.
