Don’t Starve Together – How to Install ‘A New Reign’ Beta

dont-starvedont-starve-together

A friend on steam told me there's (going to be?) a new expansion on Don't Starve (Together)? I'd love to start playing but am not sure how to install it.

Can anyone find/make a step by step guide?

You can find the instructions to opt-in the beta at the following link on the official forum.

Follow these instructions:

  • In steam click on Library > Games.
  • Scroll down to Don't Starve Together.
  • Right-click, select Properties.
  • Go to the BETAS tab.
  • In the dropdown, select the "anewreignbeta" branch.
  • In that same properties window, go to the Local Files tab and press Verify Integrity Of Game Cache.
  • Your game will be updated to the beta version.
  • Run the game and go to Browse Games. You should see servers which are running the beta. Have fun!

At the link I've provided you can also find a visual guide with the steps highlighted.
