The wait is over—Astraeos, the breathtaking map crafted by Nekatus and sponsored by Nitrado, has officially arrived as an Official Partner DLC!
Originally planned as our June Premium Map Surprise, we’re bringing this mythical world to you early, launching today for $14.99 as a fully integrated DLC instead of a Premium Mod.
Spanning ~264km², this vast, ever-expanding landscape seamlessly connects to the main clusters with official servers. But this is just the beginning—like the legends that inspired it, Astraeos will continue to grow, with new realms, challenges, and updates shaping the world over time.
Step into the realm of gods, uncover its secrets, and begin your legendary journey today!
Alongside this map, you will encounter a new creature, the Maeguana. Its motherly nature will help nurture your babies, and its skin membrane will guide you to safety.
This striking variant of the Maewing fuses the agility of its counterpart with a robust, reptilian appearance worthy of the gods of the pantheon.
