RimWorld free update 1.1 and Royalty expansion released
RimWorld's free 1.1 update is now live for all players! This update has been on the unstable branch for a week to smooth the transition for mods, and now it's the standard branch for everyone. To see the full change log for this update, look at the original 1.1 announcement here.
RimWorld's new expansion RimWorld - Royalty is available! See the trailer and full description on the RimWorld - Royalty Steam page here. [previewyoutube=ex5_XpQ-uJk;full][/previewyoutube] See the trailer and full description on the RimWorld - Royalty Steam page here. The expansion includes a new system for nobles and titles, psychic powers, mechanoid combat structures, quests and rituals, luxurious palaces, Imperial technology, and new music from Alistair Lindsay. Through all of RimWorld development from 2013 to its release in 2018, our team size hovered between two and three developers. Since the game's release, we've been scaling up. Now we're at seven developers, which has allowed us to work on multiple projects in parallel. This is how we've been able to commit resources both to improving RimWorld's core and adding new free content, as well as developing a rich expansion that opens up new kinds of gameplay.
If youre playing without mods: Youll be able to update and continue playing on the new version without interruption. If you're using mods that haven't added support for 1.1: You can continue playing version 1.0 as long as you like by using the version-1.0 beta branch. To access it, right-click RimWorld in your Steam library list, click Properties, then select the betas tab. Select version-1.0 from the drop-down list. You'll want to change this back to 'default' eventually. For modders: We did a lot of work before 1.0 and in this version to make updating as painless as possible. Theres a guide to updating mods to 1.1 included in the game files, called ModUpdating.txt. The excellent modder Brrainz has also written a separate online guide here thanks to him! You can also get live help with modding on the RimWorld Discord server. The game now includes a system for handling multi-version mods, so there is no need to make multiple Workshop items or break old mod uploads by updating them in-place. We will be carefully watching for critical bugs and fixing them! If you find anything, please post about it on the Ludeon bugs forum.
Big thanks to the developers who worked on 1.1 and this expansion: Piotr Walczak, Kenneth Ellersdorfer, Igor Lebedev, and Matt Ritchie. Thanks to Oskar Potocki both for his new art made just for us, and for providing his animal art. And I have to thank the volunteer modders, testers, and translators who helped out: Haplo, Brrainz, Pheanox, Dubski, Jaxxa, alphaBeta, Diana Winters, XeoNovaDan, someonesneaky, Mehni, RawCode, and many others. Thank you.

RimWorld is a sci-fi colony sim driven by an intelligent AI storyteller. Inspired by Dwarf Fortress, Firefly, and Dune.
You begin with three survivors of a shipwreck on a distant world.
RimWorld is a story generator. It’s designed to co-author tragic, twisted, and triumphant stories about imprisoned pirates, desperate colonists, starvation and survival. It works by controlling the “random” events that the world throws at you. Every thunderstorm, pirate raid, and traveling salesman is a card dealt into your story by the AI Storyteller. There are several storytellers to choose from. Randy Random does crazy stuff, Cassandra Classic goes for rising tension, and Phoebe Friendly just makes good things happen.
Your colonists are not professional settlers – they’re crash-landed survivors from a passenger liner destroyed in orbit. You can end up with a nobleman, an accountant, and a housewife. You’ll acquire more colonists by capturing them in combat and turning them to your side, buying them from slave traders, or taking in refugees. So your colony will always be a motley crew.
Each person’s background is tracked and affects how they play. A nobleman will be great at social skills (recruiting prisoners, negotiating trade prices), but refuse to do physical work. A farm oaf knows how to grow food by long experience, but cannot do research. A nerdy scientist is great at research, but cannot do social tasks at all. A genetically engineered assassin can do nothing but kill – but he does that very well.
Colonists develop - and destroy - relationships. Each has an opinion of the others, which determines whether they'll become lovers, marry, cheat, or fight. Perhaps your two best colonists are happily married - until one of them falls for the dashing surgeon who saved her from a gunshot wound.
The game generates a whole planet from pole to equator. You choose whether to land your crash pods in a cold northern tundra, a parched desert plain, a temperate forest, or a steaming equatorial jungle. Different areas have different animals, plants, diseases, temperatures, rainfall, mineral resources, and terrain. These challenges of surviving in a disease-infested, choking jungle are very different from those in a parched desert wasteland or a frozen tundra with a two-month growing season.
You can tame and train animals. Lovable pets will cheer up sad colonists. Farm animals can be worked, milked, and sheared. Attack beasts can be released upon your enemies. There are many animals - cats, labrador retrievers, grizzly bears, camels, cougars, chinchillas, chickens, and exotic alien-like lifeforms.
People in RimWorld constantly observe their situation and surroundings in order to decide how to feel at any given moment. They respond to hunger and fatigue, witnessing death, disrespectfully unburied corpses, being wounded, being left in darkness, getting packed into cramped environments, sleeping outside or in the same room as others, and many other situations. If they're too stressed, they might lash out or break down.
Wounds, infections, prosthetics, and chronic conditions are tracked on each body part and affect characters' capacities. Eye injuries make it hard to shoot or do surgery. Wounded legs slow people down. Hands, brain, mouth, heart, liver, kidneys, stomach, feet, fingers, toes, and more can all be wounded, diseased, or missing, and all have logical in-game effects. And other species have their own body layouts - take off a deer's leg, and it can still hobble on the other three. Take off a rhino's horn, and it's much less dangerous.
You can repair body parts with prosthetics ranging from primitive to transcendent. A peg leg will get Joe Colonist walking after an unfortunate incident with a rhinoceros, but he'll still be quite slow. Buy an expensive bionic leg from a trader the next year, and Joe becomes a superhuman runner. You can even extract, sell, buy, and transplant internal organs.
And there's much more than that! The game is easy to mod and has an active mod community. Read more at http://rimworldgame.com.
