The October 2026 developer log announces harvestable beets, blackberries, thyme, and mushrooms, adding fresh ingredients to the survival loop.
Confirmed
Answer Details
The Field to Table update names beets, blackberries, thyme, and mushrooms as plants that can be harvested. Ingredients can be eaten or combined in cooked meals, and some collected ingredients also support medicine crafting. This expands the food supply beyond scavenged leftovers; it does not establish an unlimited or risk-free source of food. Food overview. 1 2
Fresh Ingredients and Their Uses
The developer frames gathering as a response to scavenged food spoiling quickly. Fresh plants connect to cooking and, for some ingredients, simple medicine preparation. Examples do not establish that every mushroom is edible or that thyme alone cures flu.
Check the active inventory and recipe prompts before consuming or combining ingredients. The private October test is an early feature build requiring selection; the announcement does not provide a public foraging demo or a complete map of guaranteed harvest sites. 1 2
Version Limits
These are announced features in an early development build. Harvest locations, respawn times, poisonous variants, tool requirements, and ingredient quantities have not been published.
