Developer The Station and publisher Thunderful Publishing have announced the first seasonal update for recently-released city building game SteamWorld Build. The update, dubbed Jingle Bolts, brings a Christmas theme to SteamWorld Build. Check out the trailer for the update below.

The update transforms the game’s western wilderness setting into a snowy winter wonderland. Citizens of your city can be found wearing Christmas hats and snowman heads, and the update brings with it new Holiday-themed items to build, like candy cane fences, snowmen, a gift sleigh, and of course, a Christmas tree.

The studio has announced that Jingle Bolts is only the first free seasonal update for SteamWorld Build, and that more such updates are planned for the game for release in 2024.

SteamWorld Build was released on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch earlier this month. The game puts players in charge of a mining town that has to be built up with infrastructure, while at the same time also managing a mining operation to find new resources.
