With the “Neighbors and Animals” update, players have the opportunity to welcome new friends to their planet.
Each of them has unique stories and quest lines that reward players with new buildings and items and give them new ways to interact with the world around them:
- Ulfa returning character, now plays a key role in guiding players through the fascinating world of plants and the newly introduced Seed Splicing. By assisting him in his research, players can experiment with spliced seeds that have the potential to produce mutated plants. These unique plants can be sold for a higher value or used for decorations.
- Dianethe latest addition to the cast, introduces the animal care system, guiding players through the process of discovering and caring for new and existing animals. Diane’s questline also unlocks the ability to leave animals at her sanctuary, making it easier than ever for players to care for their animal companions.
In addition to caring for existing animals, abandoned eggs can also be found in the wild. Players can collect these to hatch on their farms.
With proper care – including food, water, and lots of love – these babies will grow and produce unique resources that players can use to craft new decorations and structures.
Exofarmers can also personalize their animals with hats and accessories to give them a unique character and add a stylish touch to the farm. The update also introduces two brand new animals to the roster of familiar creatures players know and love: the mystical Crystalhoof and the playful Mox.
In addition to all these new companions, the Neighbors and Animals update also brings a wide variety of new craftable items and structures, giving players even more ways to decorate their farm and neighbors’ pre-built homes.
Grass rendering has also been completely overhauled, with more dynamic environment interactions and improved visual quality, making the world feel even more alive and immersive.
A new lawnmower mode makes it even easier to customize the landscape and gives players the opportunity to trim the grass on their yard.
