As mentioned in our [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1562420/view/3647406545971132128]post[/url] a couple weeks ago, we have a ton of exciting content planned ahead for FOREWARNED. This first of these development updates has been released today, and includes an all new [b]Challenge Board[/b] and the long-awaited [b]Points Shop[/b]. Next month we'll be releasing another update with a brand new Halloween event, so stay posted for that!

Completing a challenge will award extra gold, and completing all challenges presented in a week will allow you to earn a challenge point, which can be used in the Points Shop. The board refreshes weekly, so there will always be new challenges to pursue and rewards to seek!

This includes special cosmetics, lobby decor, themed stickers you can apply to your tools, and even pets with special traits that follow you on your expeditions. The Points Shop includes [b]over 30 unlockables[/b], with more items in development to be added in future updates!

You have the ability to name your pet and customize its appearance. Additionally, each pet type has a special trait that will benefit you during expeditions. For example, Chewy here grants its owner the ability to hold their breath underwater for a much longer duration. There are currently six pets available to unlock.
