A new Don’t Starve game is coming with full co-op support from the beginning, and this time around, the biomes are layered and deeper. Here’s what we know about Don’t Starve Elsewhere so far.
The game is being developed by original Don’t Starve and Don’t Starve Together studio Klei Entertainment, who’s also self-publishing this long-awaited follow-up. Details are scarce for now, but scroll down below to learn the latest about its new take on the survival-crafting sandbox formula.
Don’t Starve Elsewhere Release Date
No release date has been set for Don’t Starve Elsewhere yet, and even a release window is a no-go for now. The reveal trailer already showed us plenty of in-game footage, but it seems it needs more months in the oven before the devs choose to commit to a window or date.

Don’t Starve Together Gameplay
Much like in the previous Don’t Starve games, players control one of various colourful (but gloomy) characters in a dark and spooky 2.5D world “filled with magic, monsters and mystery.” The wilderness is both your ally and worst enemy, but things only get worse when darker entities encroach on you and your friends…
“Gather your friends or go it alone as you explore perilous new environments, fight for survival, craft a home base, and gather resources. Just remember: don’t fall, don’t linger in the Fog, and above all else, Don’t Starve.” The core gameplay loop seems unchanged from previous Don’t Starve games, yet layered maps with several different levels introduce new dangers and opportunities.
Of course, after roughly eight years since the last piece of Don’t Starve content, expect a more refined experience and many more surprises. We’ll just have to wait for details to arrive in the coming months.
Don’t Starve Elsewhere Price, Platforms & Pre-Orders
Since Don’t Starve Elsewhere doesn’t even have a release window yet, no price tag has been set, and pre-orders aren’t open at the time of writing, but it appears this entry aims to launch directly into 1.0.
Don’t Starve Elsewhere has only confirmed a release on PC via Steam.
