A survivor has to stay warm in the Great White North! Enjoy this little vanity PJ set I pieced together in The Long Dark ( @thelongdark.bsky.social )!!! 🌲

(The outfit is not THAT warm, tbh, but it doesn’t really need to be — she has a Bear Skin Bed, too! 🥳)

Impressive accomplishment!

@thelongdark.bsky.social I've finally found all the cairns. I feel a badge award would have compensated me for all the bandages I needed for Will in the process 😁

So here's a drawing I did of my @thelongdark.bsky.social inspired character I made about a month ago.

The only way to sweeten your coffee when you're drinking out of a @hinterland.bsky.social The Long Dark mug is with liquid gold, aka maple syrup (sorry it's not Canadian syrup, @thelongdark.bsky.social )

Amazing fan creations inspired by THE LONG DARK. Such impressive attention to detail, everything made by hand. We have the absolutely best players in the world.

Unseen Crafts @unseencrafts.bsky.social · Jul 29

I’m not sure if I’ve shared this on here before. I created this miniature world based on @thelongdark.bsky.social a few years ago for my friend’s birthday. Every tiny piece was handmade from bits and pieces around my desk. Not for sale. @hinterland.bsky.social @raphlife.bsky.social

Wooden frame with handmade scene inside of a wooden cabin. There is a window showing a snowy scene with snowy scene. A curtain pole and blue curtains. A metal table with various canned food, a storm lantern, knife, bandage, antiseptic bottle, snack bar. Under the table is a bedroll in blue with leather ties, an axe and sticks. To the left is a two plate stove with fire inside and a slab of meat cooking on one side and a pot of boiling water on the other.

Description in first photo but this shows the inside excluding the frame.

Thanks for the question. We have no firm plans for Switch 2 at the moment, so no news to share about it.

Anyone want to help out?

WhimsickleSquirrel @whimsicalsquirrel.bsky.social · Jun 29

My sister's playing @thelongdark.bsky.social and asked if I remember how to get to Ash Canyon from Timberwolf Mountain. I haven't played in that area in ages now, so I attempted to draw up a map from pure, hazy memory. Here's hoping I didn't just lead her to her own, frozen gravesite.

The PS5 version requires quite a bit of additional work as the save system needs to be modified to preserve forwards compatibility. This is something that Xbox handles automatically. We'll post a PS5 timeline when we have more clarity.
