Klei Entertainment continues active support for Don't Starve Together, which reached a new all-time concurrent player record on Steam in June 2026 following a major content update and a deep discount sale.
Klei Entertainment's Don't Starve Together remains a live-service priority for the studio. On June 12, 2026, the studio released 'From Beyond - Cursed Confrontation Part 1,' a major update for the multiplayer survival game. The update added new bosses, items, and a Waymark Compass to the Sanctum area, advancing the 'From Beyond' story arc. A second part is planned to conclude that story.
Nine days after the update, on June 21, Don't Starve Together hit 122,662 concurrent players on Steam, breaking its previous all-time record of 115,925 set in April 2023. The surge coincided with Klei Fest 2026, during which the game was offered at a 90% discount, priced at 148 yen. The sale ran through June 26.
The concurrent player record and the update together show that Klei is still investing in a decade-old title. The studio also has a newly announced project, Don't Starve Elsewhere, but the stories do not detail its status or release plans. No other Klei games are mentioned in the coverage.
