Bugsnax Isle of BIGsnax Update Patch Notes – April 28, 2022

• A new biome to explore.
• A dozen fresh Bugsnax to capture.
• Over 100 challenges and 30 quests.
• Nearly 200 decorations to collect and display.

Bugsnax

The new island is home to Bugsnax that have not been seen on Snaktooth Island. Triffany hypothesizes that they are an ancient species, and have been preserved at the bottom of the ocean. These Bugsnax include:

• Bunger Royale, a massive, multi-layered Bunger, with tater tots for horns and legs.
• Tikkada Masala, a cicada-like Bugsnak resembling tikka with naan wings.
• Millimochi, a worm- or millipede-like Bugsnak resembling mochi.
• Cellystix, a stick bug-like Bugsnak resembling celery sticks. Several Chocolant can be seen riding on it.
• Chocolant, an ant-like Bugsnak resembling three chocolate chips, found riding upon Cellystix.
• Spaghider, A spider-like Bugsnak with spaghetti legs, fork prong fangs, and a meatball abdomen.
• Clawbsteroni, a lobster-like Bugsnak made of pasta.
• A massive Bugsnak resembling a wheel of wax-sealed cheese on a closed platter.
• Deviled Eggler, a flying Bugsnak resembling deviled eggs.
• Pielobite – Pielobites have a protective pie shell that keeps them from getting shrunken. They’re also pretty skittish, so the second something threatens to unclip their shell, they’ll flee across the island!
• Cheddorb. a massive Bugsnak resembling a port wine cheeseball.

The massive Bunger is seen being shrunk by a new item known as Shrink Spice by the Journalist, allowing said Bunger to be small enough for capture.

Hats

You can decorate and personalize the hut with all kinds of unique furniture, wallpaper, and lawn ornaments (my favorite being a twenty-foot tall grumpus skeleton). There are around 180 decorations to collect.

Hut Customization

“The Journalist’s hut” is now finished, and can be customized with various furniture items and decorations. Its exterior can be customized as well, and a second floor can be added.

Checking Your Mail

Your hut is also tied to a new set of activities delivered via mailbox. The grumpuses in town will send you requests and challenges, and every time you complete one you’ll get a thank you letter with some gifts attached. You’ll also get letters and gifts to mark various milestones throughout the game (so returning players will have quite a few built up to start with).
