It’s the first time the map has extended south, which means there are sure to be many new dangers to navigate and you want to be ready for them.

There are over 20 new locations to venture to around the Skyline Valley map, plus 11 quests to work on while you explore the area. There’s also the Dangerous Pastimes event that involves taking on a boss to help some eager settlers who are also storm chasers get pictures of the storm hovering around Skyline Valley.

Alongside the new update, season 17 also starts when Skyline Valley goes live. Pioneer Scouts is the theme of this season, with a focus on corresponding aspects like teamwork and survival. Regardless of what you plan to do first, there’s certainly a lot of fresh content to look forward to between the massive update and the beginning of another season.
