Merge Games has released new information about the upcoming Smalland: Survive the Wilds Update 4, and it's bringing a ton of new stuff with it.

This update will arrive alongside the full launch of the game across PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S, which means you can expect to be enjoying everything it has to offer on February 15th.

First up, you're getting "the conclusion to the first chapter of the Smallfolk's story", which will see you ascending to the top of the watchtower to see what awaits you there.

As well as new story content, Update 4 will also bring new world events, and although we're not sure exactly what they'll entail yet, Merge Games says they will add "spice and variety" to Smalland's world.

New factions will also be introduced in this update, offering all kinds of goodies including banners, consumables, and perks to help you explore the game's world.

If you're new to the world of Smalland, you can also look forward to an expanded and revamped tutorial, which should help you get acclimatized to being shrunk down to the size of an insect.

More info is coming soon, too; Merge Games says it'll release a new and expanded roadmap for Smalland: Survive the Wilds prior to launch.

If you're not up-to-date with Smalland: Survive the Wilds, it's a Grounded-esque tale of survival in a world in which you're quite literally a tiny creature.

In Smalland's world, trees become skyscrapers, insects become terrifying behemoths, and ancient ruins become insurmountably huge indicators of a civilization that once lived on the very planet you're currently wandering.

Since the game launched in Early Access last year, it's racked up quite a few sales and received a number of updates adding new content and plenty more.

Smalland: Survive the Wilds launches across PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on February 15th, which is also when Update 4 drops. You can check out our guides for the game below if you're looking to get started in its beautiful yet imposing world.
