Introducing Bigsnax, the next chapter of Bugsnax. The DLC will include an entirely new biome to explore, new features like a living space that can be customized, and more. Current owners of Bugsnax will get the Bigsnax DLC entirely free. Bugsnax players won’t have to wait long, either, because the Bigsnax DLC will be arriving in early 2022.

Bigsnax is, as its name implies, introducing a variety of new, enormous Bugsnax. The DLC will introduce a dozen such Bugsnax to the game, which will require players to shrink with a new Shrink Spice mechanic before they can be caught. The big Bugsnax will be found in a new biome for players to explore, said to contain some of the island’s long-forgotten history. Of course, along the way players will also get new stories for the player’s NPC friends Chandlo, Floofty, Triffany, and Shelda.

That’s just the start of the new content for Bugsnax players to discover, however. Bigsnax will also be unlocking new content in the form of hats for Bugsnax to wear, as well as furniture to adorn players’ new homes in Snaxburg. These cosmetics can be earned through 100 new challenges, which can be accepted through the player’s mailbox, as well as 30 new Bugsnax quests. In all, there are almost 200 decorations to collect with Bigsnax’s release.

Players of all kinds will be able to participate in the Bigsnax DLC, too. It’s not a standalone DLC, so it’ll be built into currently existing saves. New players will be able to find all of the new content in a normal fashion. Those who have beat Bugsnax can use their post-game save files, which will reload before the game’s point of no return.

While the Isle of Bigsnax was revealed during Sony’s PlayStation State of Play event, the DLC is not exclusive. It’s also confirmed for the PC release of Bugsnax, which is currently available solely on the Epic Games Store. The DLC is confirmed for the Steam release of Bugsnax, too, depending on which arrives second in 2022. Expect more news on that next year.

Bugsnax is available now on PC, PS4, and PS5.
