Ideology expansion What do you believe? RimWorld - Ideology is now available. Check out the Ideology Steam store page for the full description and details.


Free 1.3 update Players can now update to RimWorld version 1.3 for free. This version was previously tested in a beta branch for 2 weeks. Find the full change log here.[docs.google.com]

On savegame compatibility:
  • 1.3 will load 1.2 saves no problem.
  • You can load a non-Ideology game with Ideology loaded.
  • You can run either expansion, neither, or both - all configurations will work.

On mod updating: There's no need to break compatibility with 1.2 while adding support for 1.3! It's quite easy to make a mod support multiple versions of the game, just by putting the old version's files in one folder and the new version's files in another.

If you want to be more efficient and share identical files between versions, you can do that too. You can even define your own custom folder structure for full control.

This document explains the details on how to do it: Multi-version mods in RimWorld[docs.google.com]

Edit: Verifying file integrity triggered the download, restarting steam didn't.

Edit2: Game is updated, but it says Ideology isn't installed.

My install hasn't updated to 1.3, and installing the Ideology expansion didn't do anything ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sorry about that - Downloads should be working as of about 80 minutes ago.

Hey, I'm just removing some comments about already-solved technical issues to avoid gunking up the discussion.

Why do my blind colonists get the darkness debuff??

It has always worked like this. Many blind people have some light perception. But it makes less sense now so we're going to remove it in a hotfix soon.

Bought DLC on rimworldgame.com now can't get a steam key, says:

"Apologies, we are temporarily out of steam keys. Please try again tomorrow."

What can I do? Is this normal

Sorry about that. This was a temporary (<30 minutes) problem related to the massive load on the server around release. It was never out of keys and you can redeem any time at https://rimworldgame.com/getmygame
