**Popular medieval survival RPG Bellwright unveils its largest update yet - Maiden Voyage!**

New Halmare Isles map is 25% the size of the original game, with vast new content and QoL features

Los Angeles, CA – December 3, 2025 – Donkey Crew, in partnership with Snail Games USA, today revealed "Maiden Voyage" as the name of the next major content update for their medieval open-world survival RPG Bellwright, alongside the premiere of a brand-new trailer. Currently in Steam Early Access, Bellwright is currently on sale for 34% off and the Maiden Voyage update will be available on December 9th, offering a vast new map with a story-driven questline, fresh challenges, exclusive loot, and major new progression systems.

The biggest addition to Bellwright is the new Halmare Isles map, which is roughly 25% the size of the original game. At over 10 square kilometers, this region includes all new story-based quests with multiple progression lines, expanded armor and equipment, new animals and buildings, and introduces a Loyalty & Faction system.

Other major additions to the core game include full controller support, a Trade and Caravans feature that provides a new layer of strategy as players build and manage a sophisticated logistics network between their outposts, and an improved Walls fortification system that allows players to construct walls for their camps. This includes new gameplay mechanics with specific AI behavior for attackers and defenders, which adds a fresh challenge and more strategic depth to base defense.

There's a bounty of new customization features as well, like a much improved Character Creator, offering further options and higher fidelity player character models. Fashion-conscious players will also enjoy the New Weapon Types & Cloaks offering more ways to personalize player characters and show off their unique builds and looks. Another quality of life improvement is the addition of Blocking Markers on Building Placement, with a new system that now shows foliage blocking construction areas, along with the ability to task workers with removing the foliage before it is built.

"Since entering into Early Access last year, Bellwright has received over a million wishlists largely due to the constant updates and direct communication our team has had with players," said Creative Director and Project Lead Florian Hoffreither "'Maiden Voyage' is really taking the feedback that we've received over the last year and improving the game in all aspects. The icing on the cake is we get to introduce an entirely new setting and continent to explore. We're looking forward to hearing what you think of this Maiden Voyage update as we continue to stride towards our 1.0 launch!"
