Satisfactory unveils its first expansion: Core Values

The thirst for automation among players has never been deeper. During the Big Break Showcase on September 29, 2026, Coffee Stain Studios finally unveiled the first paid expansion for its acclaimed factory-building game, Satisfactory. The expansion is called Core Values and promises to take players, the so-called 'Pioneers,' to explore the depths of the alien planet MASSAGE 2(A-B)b.

The announcement trailer, which closed the digital event dedicated to indie developers, shows that the mission will literally expand underground, with a new story to uncover. Satisfactory, available on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, has already captured a massive player base, reaching over 100,000 concurrent players on the day of its 1.0 launch in September 2024.

Core Values represents the first major additional content for a title that has redefined the first-person factory-building genre. Details on the release date and price have not yet been revealed, but the announcement has already ignited excitement within the community of space builders.
