## Key points

- Dwarf Fortress may add an underground biome made of flesh and bone.
- Players could mine its meat terrain for resources.
- No release date has been announced, and plans remain tentative.

## Summary

Bay 12 co-founder Tarn Adams says Dwarf Fortress may gain an underground “meat biome”, filled with terrain made of muscle, bone, sinew and other flesh. The idea suits the game’s famously gruesome world, but no release date has been given.

Adams shared the plans in a forum discussion about the game’s ongoing development, so they remain tentative. Players could mine the meat for resources; rivers of blood or other fluids would depend on a future fluid update, and the biome is not expected to contain meat trees or animated flesh. Bay 12 is also planning a crystal biome, while much of the discussion focused on future changes to magic.
