Will the Asia expansion be added?

[Ichiorochi]

So after having played the physical version i was wondering if the Asia expansion would be added to this digital version of wingspan.

[AronFJenks]

of course. It just might take a while.

Judging by how long the oceania expansion too,k to develop, I'd say more like 2026/27

Asia is just a few new birds and bonus cards. Oceania took forever because of new game mechanics and a new board, and new end-of-round goals, in addition to new birds and bonus cards.

The time it took them to release oceania clearly indicates to me that there were other challenges than just the feature implementation. So lets just hope, those challenges wont play a big role again for this next dlc.

It might be the animation on the bird cards that took so long. The other stuff should be easy as in 2 days.

But Asia includes different game modes, including support for major multiplayer size increases or duet mode. If they are adding those, I bet it will take longer than Oceania.

Oh, true. I forgot about duet mode, since I never use it. Nor have I ever added a 6th or 7th player for flock mode.

Yeah, Asia expansion will be along sometime in 2026 or early 2027.

And they still won't have fixed the most glaring bugs.

Software development is never easy, it seems^^

My guess would be that their "AI" was really difficult to update to the new mechanics oceania brought. I also think, that they released the DLC for all platforms at the same time, meaning finished versions had to wait til all versions were ready.

So I'll stay as pessimistic as Aaron for now :/

Yeah had not thought a lot about animation and the Computer opponent. Makes sense that it is going to take quite a while. I don't know how they are programming the computer. But hopefully it will be easier for them for Asia than it was during oceana
