It's time to return to big adventure on a small scale with the latest Smalland: Survive the Wilds update. This update, also known as the Guild and Stables update, brings a healthy amount of new features, content, and bug fixes. We'll discuss everything you can look forward to playing down below.

Smalland: Survive the Wilds Patch Notes — What's New in the Latest Update?

You won't have to wait to play the Guild and Stables update, because it's live now! You and your friends can jump in and start enjoying all the new features and fixes immediately. Additionally, the game is currently on sale on Steam. There's never been a better time to jump in and enjoy all that Smalland: Survive the Wilds has to offer!

Guilds Have Arrived

With the arrival of Guilds, you, your pals, and players worldwide can elevate your cooperative experience. Here are some of the features you can look forward to with Guilds:

• Server-wide player guilds and shared encampments.
• Members can share a Tree Encampment that stays active on the server as long as one guildmate is online.
• Encampment interaction—building, customizing, and reviving—is based on your role.
• A brand new revive consumable lets guild members bring each other back mid-adventure.

Stables & Companion Changes

Riding around Smalland with a companion is among the game's greatest joys. Now, it's even better! Companions can be housed in one of three different stable types based on their size. Now you can store your companions safely away in a cozy home made just for them. Additionally, two new items have been added to help with companion management. The Summoning Pebble allows you to summon your companions to your current location in the Overlands. Conversely, the Homecoming Totem will enable you to call your companion back to your encampment.

New Encampments & a New Creature

There are two new encampments to find in the northern region of Smalland. Each is a Tree Encampment, which can be added to your existing network of encampments. If you need more help finding and activating them, speak with Bonniedel. Additionally, a new task featuring the mysterious Roufus-Bellied Tit has been added. This brand-new creature has never appeared in Smalland, so gather your friends and do your best to discover it!
