U52-622222 is an update for Oxygen Not Included released on July 18, 2024. Official Release Notes
Update Information
Guess what, asteroid explorers...
...The Frosty Planet Pack DLC is out on Steam TODAY!
This DLC features a frozen new world filled with brand-new biomes, oddly adorable new critters, new buildings, blueprints (aka cosmetic skins), plants, resources and deliciously deep-fried foods! We've even recruited a new Duplicant!
The DLC can be purchased for 7.99USD and is available now on Steam! It'll be available on WeGame and Epic soon, too.
If you dug into this glittering new icescape during our free beta period, rest assured (or alarmed) that there's plenty more to explore in the full version—including a big engineering project deep down at the planet's core. There's also a Blasted Ceres option in the Lab for the thrillseekers who want an extra-challenging version of this new starting world.
Sure, the whole colony's complaining about frostbite, but wait 'til they discover the hot new ways to stay warm! Just don't let those snow tiles melt...
We've revised temperature mechanics for Duplicants and critters to make things simpler and more interesting. We've also introduced the option to mix in asteroids and biomes from one or more DLCs when making a new game, so you can scramble the cosmos at will! The "Scramble DLC" tool works for The Frosty Planet Pack and future additions to the ONI universe.
Additionally, we're releasing a free update for the base game today: It includes the temperature mechanics revisions mentioned above, plus the new elements, UI improvements, and more.
What's in this DLC?
- A brand-new icy starting world.
- New critters: Flouncy Floxes! Behemoth Bammoths! Sweet-toothed Spigot Seals!
- Three new biomes: Ice Cave, Cool Pool and Nectar.
- New plants: Pikeapple Bush, Alveo Vera, Sherberry Plant, Plume Squash, Bonbon Tree, and Idylla Flower.
- New buildings: Wood Heater, Snow Tile, Deep Fryer, and more!
- New elements: Cinnabar, Tallow, and Nectar.
- New Duplicant: meet Freyja!
- New POIs: a Gravitas live/work showroom! An enlightening Research Portal! A power plant that may or may not have wreaked havoc on past colonies!
- Exclusive, cold-themed new blueprints collection!
- Revised temperature mechanics.
- ...and more!
The universe can be a cold, cold place...conquer it all from the questionable comfort of your cool new snow fort colony in The Frosty Planet Pack DLC!
Huge thanks to everyone who played the beta! Check out the patch notes and F.A.Q. below.
