Satisfactory DLC Core Values will introduce cavernous constraints through new underground biomes
Key Points:
- Satisfactory's first DLC, Core Values, is a major expansion introducing new biomes, buildings, a fresh storyline, and additional creatures, including an alien cat with unique features.
- The expansion focuses on subsurface exploration, sending players into caverns beneath the planet's crust with new resources and lifeforms, though without threatening monsters.
- Core Values presents new challenges due to the confined, rocky underground terrain, requiring players to optimize factory layouts more efficiently than on the surface.
- The DLC requires players to reach Tier 3 of HUB research after building the space elevator and allows seamless switching between the new content and the main game; regular updates for the base game will continue alongside the DLC development.
- Additionally, a Satisfactory board game is planned for release in 2026 via Gamefound, where players compete to optimize engines and earn the Employee of the Month title.
