What to expect from the Volcanic Biome Part 1 update

Predicting the upcoming content (Image via Roblox)

The official graphic for the Volcanic Biome Part 1 update shows an enemy, presumably a cultist member, holding a huge mace and wearing a helmet with horns. He is at the center of the image and accompanied by a few cultists. This could be the teaser for a new terrifying enemy in 99 Nights in the Forest.

Common for every update, the upcoming one may also introduce badges associated with the new in-game challenges. Completing them will grant you Diamonds, which can be used to unlock Classes in 99 Nights in the Forest. Additionally, similar to the snow biome, which brought polar bears, mammoths, and arctic foxes, the new one could offer new creatures.

Volcanic will replace the snow biome for two weeks. After that period is over, each of the two biomes will appear randomly on the map. You can either get the snow or the Volcanic biome during a run, but they won't spawn together.
