Evaluation

Crafty Survivors launched its 1.0 version on May 16, 2025 after a lengthy Early Access period. Since launch, the developer (Flannel Bear Games, a two-person studio) has continued building on the game actively. On May 15, 2026 — the game's one-year anniversary — the developer announced a Nintendo Switch port and confirmed new content was in development. Over the following weeks, they teased a winter-themed expansion called "Wicked Winter," revealing two new characters (a companion-based Rancher and a Toymaker with a puppet) and a new snowy area. On August 19, 2026, the developer officially announced that the first paid DLC — **Crafty Survivors: Wicked Winter** — is launching on **September 10, 2026**. This is a concrete, dated, upcoming release that has not yet shipped as of today (August 22, 2026). The DLC includes two new playable characters with unique mechanics and is already listed on Steam for wishlisting.
