A preview build of the upcoming 1.8 Fall update is now available via the Steam betas option tab (access instructions below).

Whilst we continue to work toward the core updates, the 1.8 Fall update comes as a bonus that also enables us to add in some smaller features in preparation for the bigger updates.

We look forward to hearing any feedback and please let us know if you find any issues. Feedback and bugs can be posted on the Steam forums or alternatively you can join us on our official Discord server.

Preview Build Access Instructions

Note: Preview build saves will be compatible with the full release of the 1.8 Fall update. Most mods will requiring migration for the full 1.8 release. We recommend starting a fresh save or playing a vanilla for the preview build.

If you would like to take a look or help test out the preview build, you can gain access via the Steam betas tab in Foundation properties.

• Right-click Foundation in your Steam library
• Click on properties
• Navigate to BETAS
• Choose the ‘preview - Next Build Preview’ option

The game will automatically update but if it does not you may need to restart your Steam client.
