Hello Community, We just released our v2.11 Hotfix for THE LONG DARK on Xbox (112312) and WINTERMUTE on Xbox (111906). This update includes a fix for a bug introduced during the 2.09 Update. Xbox [WINTERMUTE] Fixed an issue where WINTERMUTE saves were not recognized by the game for some players following the TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY update, resulting in an inability to play Story Mode from saved files. Players who lost WINTERMUTE saves following the update are encouraged to reach out to us via the Support Portal for assistance. Please note that WINTERMUTE saves will work as intended for anyone accessing the Expansion Pass update for the first time following this update.

Hello Survivors, Today, we launched TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY Part One: Forsaken Airfield on PlayStation and Xbox, and Part Two: Signal Void on Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation, and Xbox. TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY features the first paid content for THE LONG DARK, significantly adding to the world of Great Bear Island and the game's core Survival foundation. New Parts will be added regularly over the course of the 12-month Expansion Pass campaign, featuring new Regions, new Gameplay, and new objective-based Tales. Each Part of TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY includes content that is exclusive to the Paid stream, plus free updates to Survival Mode. PART ONE: FORSAKEN AIRFIELD The following paid features and content were included in TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY, Part One: FORSAKEN AIRFIELD for Xbox and PlayStation: Far Range Branch Line: This transition region connects from Broken Railroad, linking Broken Railroad to Transfer Pass. Transfer Pass: This hub region provides access to Forsaken Airfield, and the two additional new Regions arriving later in the Expansion Pass campaign. Forsaken Airfield Region: An abandoned airfield on a vast snowy plain. It includes the Hangar, Control Tower, Ranger’s Cabin, and other points of interest. Watch for the Aurora. Tool Variants: Vaughan’s Rifle, Barb’s Rifle, Curator’s Rifle, Woodwright’s Bow, Spelunker’s Lantern: Modifications of the base Tools, with custom stats and cosmetics. Glimmer Fog: Beware this phenomenon. It comes during the day, and getting stuck in it for too long will trigger the new Insomnia Affliction. Insomnia Affliction: Too much time in the Glimmer Fog can affect your sleep patterns. Please note that when you first start your adventures in the Far Territory, you cannot access the new regions or transitions from the World Map until you have first found them in the world. No shortcuts! They will become visible after they have been initially discovered. PART ONE: FREE STREAM Along with the contents of Part One for the paid Expansion Pass, the following free updates were applied to the base Survival game. Complete Loot & Resource refresh: All loot tables have been updated, and the location of in-world spawned objects has been refreshed. The locations and amounts of all high-value Tools and Items have also been modified. Do not expect things to appear in the same place, or quantity, as you may have experienced them before, and also know that an element of randomness to loot spawns is present in any game. Interloper balance has been preserved in the loot refresh. (For more information please visit this post.) Starting Spawn Points refresh: When you start a new Survival game, the locations you can potentially spawn in each region have been changed. Feel lost again. Visor Notes (Mementos): Notes will occasionally spawn under car visors (and other places). Finding these will unlock the location of supply caches or other items in the world. Improvised Crampons: You can now craft your own. Be cautious, Survivors – these Crampons are not quite as effective as the ones you find. Doe: Female deer have been added to the game, replacing the majority of the Stag population. For more details of each of these included features, please refer to the updated Roadmap page. PART TWO: SIGNAL VOID The first Tale, SIGNAL VOID: Requires an estimated 5+ hours to complete Handheld Shortwave Radio: For use with Transponder Cache Gameplay Transponder Cache Gameplay: Including the Handheld Shortwave, Transmitter sites, and trackable hidden Supply Caches New Bunkers: Discovered as part of the Tale Four new clothing items: The Hockey Jersey, Flight Jacket, Aviator Cap, and Technical Balaclava New “Surprise” Accessory item: Only found as part of the Tale – check out the update video to find out more! A note for players on Interloper: Prepper Caches are have returned to the game, however, there will be no fully-stocked versions. The new Tale also isn’t available on Interloper. PART TWO: FREE STREAM Along with the contents of Part Two for the paid Expansion Pass, the following free updates were applied to the base Survival game. Fire-Hardened Arrows: Good for hunting small game Enhanced Prepper Bunkers: Including visual updates, loot updates, and a spawn refresh. Prepper Bunkers are now spread out over more regions and there are more hatches than before, however only 3 are fully-stocked.
