For one, there will be a pens and fencing system for animals. Why not?Īs for the free update coming to all players alongside the expansion, Ludeon say that 1.3 is a major one representing 15 months of fixes and improvements. 'You can mix and match different core elements of your belief system, and also customize every individual precept, ritual, special social role, venerated animal and weapon, culture and style, unique building, tattoo, clothing, background narrative, god, and beard preference,' they say.Īpparently that also includes the possibility of creating an ideology based on techno dance raves.

In the expansion, Ludeon explain that you'll have quite a lot of factors at your disposal to customise your colony's ideologies. Just enough time to plan exactly what kind of oddball ideological mashup you want to saddle your next colony with. Ludeon Studios say they're looking to launch the expansion, and the major 1.3 free update alongside it in 'about 2 weeks'. RimWorld has announced its upcoming Ideology expansion which will let you create colonies of 'tree-worshipping cannibals who carve skulls into every piece of furniture, or blind tunnelers who shun the light, or transhumanists obsessed with perfecting the human form using exotic technology'.

Extraterrestrial colony sim RimWorld sure does have a spot on several 'best of genre' lists here in RPS territory and-would you look at that-the best only get better.
