Don't Starve: Shipwrecked Roadmap

A Shipwrecked Roadmap on the Klei Entertainment Forums outlines the future of Don't Starve: Shipwrecked, the DLC for Don't Starve that's currently in early access on Steam (thanks Blend Games). Ignoring the fact that following a roadmap at sea is an easy way to cause a shipwreck, here's the plan:

It’s the new year and we’re back to work! First of all, I want to thank everyone who has been playing shipwrecked and participating in the forums since we launched on December 1st. We have all been very busy since launch but, while we may not always be posting, I promise we’re always reading the forums!

I’m going to share a rough outline of our plans for Shipwrecked in the coming months. We’re aiming to release an update around every 3 weeks, with the next update being scheduled for the middle of January and the final update being at the end of February. After that there will be an update dedicated entirely to bug fixes and balance changes. Of course, it should be noted that all of these times are just estimates of our schedule and may very well change (as they often do).

Here’s a rough idea of what you can expect to see in these content updates.

Characters:
In the December 17th update we released Walani, but we still have three more characters to go!

Bosses:
The world in shipwrecked has a noticeable absence of large creatures. Right now, we have three new bosses planned for shipwrecked: the Tiger Shark and two other yet to be named horrors.

Balance Changes:
This will arguably have the biggest impact. We are aware that there are many balance changes that need to be made and we will be tackling them during these updates by turning the dials behind the scenes and adding additional content to help deal with the new challenges in Shipwrecked.
