Patch 0.13.0: Lava Caves, Deep Woods, pets, and automation

Direct answer

The official 0.13.0 update added the Lava Caves, Deep Woods, pets, farm expansion, automation systems, and the Animal Festival. It also raised the Renown cap and expanded requests, Museum sets, perks, and NPC content.

New areas and progression

The Lava Caves occupy Mines floors 61–80 and add the Breaking the Fire Seal questline, new monsters, forageables, insects, fish, artifacts, a new spell, cooked dish, armor, furniture set, and craftable golden tools and armor. The Deep Woods becomes available after the Fire Seal questline and adds new discoveries plus farm-to-Deep-Woods teleportation.

The Stone Refinery Town Repair questline unlocks after the Inn is repaired and the player reaches Renown level 55. The update also raised the Renown cap to 90, added four Crown Requests and 24 other requests, and added two Museum sets for each wing.

Pets and farm systems

Pets arrive through the Pet Dream cutscene, can be assigned jobs to collect wood, stone, and forageables, and the farm expansion becomes purchasable at the Carpenter’s Shop. Water Sprite Statues water crops when powered by an Essence Stone; Animal Sprite Statues provide the equivalent daily animal-music effect.

The Animal Festival occurs on Winter 10. Existing saves may receive some already-earned unlocks immediately when their requirements were already met, so the patch summary should not be converted into a universal day-by-day checklist.

Next step

When comparing an old 0.13 save with a current build, identify the save’s version and completed questlines first. Use the current 1.0.x guides for actual unlock instructions.
