Alongside the introduction of over 40 new trinkets to the game, players now have the ability to equip up to four at a time, bolstering their character with a myriad of effects ranging from burn damage and death bombs, to shields and damage reduction. Four new Taskmasters can also be found lurking around the islands, offering themed tasks that upon completion will grant ever increasing rewards to aid players on their journey. The Expeditions Update offers up a plethora of new content, including five new companion pets, the ability to catalogue animals as well as newly introduced shells and insects in the journal, elite hunts of powerful animals, a new endgame island with more powerful orclings and a miniboss, and much more alongside several bug fixes and quality of life improvements.
