A New Reign

Exclusive to:

A New Reign, previously known as Through the Ages, is a free Don't Starve Together expansion. It was distributed as an "Update Chain", meant to add game changing features, like Reign of Giants and Shipwrecked did to Don't Starve. Similar to the latter, A New Reign started as a beta.

Between August 2016 and March 2017, Don't Starve Together received an update every 3 weeks, adding new content into the beta branch. Once stable, this content was added to the main version, becoming official. It then became inseparable from the original game.

Official Description

A New Reign: Part 1

The shadow queen Charlie has begun to make her mark on the Don't Starve world, and her influence is manifesting in new and mysterious ways. What is her plan for Wilson and the survivors? Will she aid them in their fight for survival, or does she have something more dastardly in store?

A New Reign: Part 2

Charlie the shadow queen has been plotting dark new challenges for Wilson and his fellow survivors from her umbral throneroom, and she’s ready to unleash her latest creations on the world of Don’t Starve Together!

Final

The reign of the new shadow queen has swept across the land of Don't Starve Together and now creeps deep into the bowels of the earth. What ancient secrets will be dredged up by Charlie's dark machinations, and what purpose does she have in mind for the formidable being at the center of the Ruins?

Delay

The content pack was officially announced for late Spring 2015, but its development had to be pulled back as the developers had issues implementing the Caves and Reign of Giants content into the game. This explains why some of its features were released a long time before being announced as part of it, like Beefalo Domestication and Disease. The expansion was renamed to A New Reign on August 8, 2016.

Features

Below are the features included in A New Reign.

The features marked with were later introduced to the singleplayer version of Don't Starve in the Quality of Life update.

Trivia

• A New Reign is also the name of the animated short first seen on the Cyclum Puzzles, then released for public view when the game left Early Access. This may also be an explanation for the name change.
• In each update, some Roses are scattered around the Update Teaser. The number of roses is indicative of the update number.
