Here’s the latest Bugsnax DLC trailer. It focuses on The Isle of Bigsnax’s big Bugsnax. It begins by showing when you can access the free area. People first need to have found Snorpy. Then, they need to complete the character’s quests. In the example video, the Major Celebration! quest is the active one. Snorpy will then let you know about a new adventure if you speak with him. If someone already beat the game, continuing their save file will put them at the exact moment.

After that, the video shows what it will be like on the new island. Chandlo, Floofty, Shelda, and Triffany will explore it alongside you. You may come across doors that require you to send a Buggy Ball in to unlock. There are the bigger-than-usual Bugsnax, which can be brought back to a normal size with Shrink Spice.

While the new island will make up the bulk of new gameplay, there will be other activities around Snaxburg too. You will have a mailbox. Characters will drop off challenge letters for you to complete. If you take part in them, you can get items to place in your new home. Some wild Bugsnax will also be wearing hats. If you catch those specific bugs, you also get those hats to use.

Bugsnax will come to the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series S on April 28, 2022, the same day its free DLC will appear for all versions. The game is immediately available on the PS4, PS5, and PC.
