Available Downloadable Content

Offworld Trading Company released three DLC packs on it's official release day, along with the 1.0 build. They have stated that more DLC packs and expansions will continue to roll out.
 

Jupiter's Forge Expansion

If you thought turning a profit on Mars was tough, just wait until you land on Jupiter’s volcanic moon, Io. With resources that deplete over time creating fierce competition, you will have to adapt to the new environment faster than your opponents do in order to survive. Life support is so strenuous on Io that Mars will look like a paradise in comparison!

  • New Location - IO
    Explore Jupiter’s volcanic and volatile moon where energy is plentiful, but life support is so difficult that it makes Mars look like a paradise.
  • New Resource System
    Change your production priorities in order to survive on Io where even the element most essential to basic human life - water - does not exist.
  • New Faction - The Penrose Collective
    Highly adaptable and influential, they are able to return claims and spread their operations across an already depleted environment in order to afford them easier access to more resources.
  • New Faction - The Diadem Trust
    An elite business group, their advanced structures can outperform the competition. Their ability to purchase patents that are already owned even leaves lawyers scratching their heads.
  • New Infinite Map Challenge
    Compete against the online community as each map evolves and becomes more difficult than the last. See how many maps you can conquer before the harsh environments of space get the better of you.
  • New Campaign
    Show that you have what it takes to survive on the harsh environment of Io. Snag resources before your adversaries do and prove that money talks: you made it on Mars, and you can make it on Io.

With two new characters joining the fray, new story-driven content, new game modes, and more, this DLC takes the single player experience and adds hours of additional entertainment and content to explore.

  • New Challenge: Depleting Resources
    On Ceres, resources deplete as they are used. Over time, your plots will start to decrease and you will need to be on the lookout for new resource points to mine since even the best of them won’t last forever.
