I’m thinking it may be a _trailer_ for Worlds Update: Part Two. Then, once the current expedition has ended we might see an actual update.  
I’m still going to ༼ つ ◕\_◕ ༽つ anyway because I’ve gotten a little hyped up.

That’s been my thought since this thing started. I keep imagining this sequence:

1. Expedition saves game file configuration, then changes some files.

2. Update changes game files again.

3. Expedition ends, and reverts some files back to pre-update configuration.

There’s lots of opportunity for chaos in there.

Considering this is a speculation topic for possible future content, I created a new topic specific to the current update that just dropped (PS4 only for now).

Below we can discuss (with use of spoilers), what actual content just dropped

But they are a bit schizophrenic… Their News page shows Aquarius ending January 22. Gotta love it.

Yes, the news page wasn’t updated to include the Cursed expedition. HG aren’t very good at maintaining their website.

I was half expecting a revisit to the planetside POI’s and maybe some new additions with worlds part 2, seemed a good time to tackle it.

I wasn’t expecting a complete overhaul to terrain generation in the new systems though or entirely new planet types so this seems more than a fair trade.

I do expect that POI’s will have their turn some day though, so it’s something I can continue to speculate on, which is its own little form of fun 🙂

I think planetside “dungeons” similar to derelict freighters has been on the wish list of a lot of people for a long time, the ruined civilization planets seem perfect for some booby trap Indiana Jones style fun 😉

I mean, abandoned space stations have been screaming for them for years now… But yeah, it would be _extremely_ nice!

Unfortunately for them, in space, no one can hear you scream.

A divining rod would be nice in a future update 😏

Theres no way to tell from orbit if a gas giant has water, or where it might even be so for now ease of discovery will mostly come down to luck.

Has anyone stumbled upon water on a gas giant yet? There’s new fish to be caught there but I’m starting to think it’s a myth 😁
