Satisfactory Announces First Paid DLC Core Values Expansion

Coffee Stain Studios and Coffee Stain Publishing opened the store page for Satisfactory's first paid DLC, Core Values Expansion, on September 30, 2026. The expansion is set beneath the surface of the main game's planet, MASSAGE 2(A-B)b. It adds new resources, plants, and animals, plus new production lines and factory buildings. The release date and price are undecided. Game director Emmet Burke said during The Big Break Showcase 2026 that the release will not come this year at least. The DLC brings a story separate from the main game, hostile and friendly cave creatures, and new facilities, equipment, and research. Ceilings underground may impose height limits on construction. A trailer showed a one-eyed cat-like animal, grasses, flowers, and insect-like creatures. The PC store page is live on Steam and Epic Games Store, and the console page will follow later.
