This article is over 4 years old and may contain outdated information

You’ll be able to really establish yourself in Temtem after downloading the 0.6.9 update. While this isn’t a bug numbered one, like 0.7, there’s a very notable new addition. In addition to new Kisiwa areas and two creatures, Temtem housing is now available.

Once you download the patch, Atoll Row will be open. This is a series of homes, which Crema noted has no loading, for all players. Once you get a house, you can decorate it however you’d like. Granted, you actually need to buy furniture, but the update does add new stores. Also, it is possible to essentially teleport directly to homes or walk to them in-game.

As for the new creatures, they’re the bear-like Yowlar and dog-like Momo. A screenshot of the two was shared in the Steam announcement.

Here are the full Temtem 0.6.9 patch notes, as taken from Crema’s official site:

New Stuff

  • The Housing system has arrived.
    • You can now own and decorate your own house on Atoll Row. In order to get a house, you need to do a quest and pay a fee for the terrain. The quest can be started at Coral Plaza in Omninesia.
    • Everyone can now explore Atoll Row, and visit the homes of other Tamers. Instead of having an instantiated housing system, where players would travel to their own house, Atoll Row is an endless array of neighborhoods. You can walk the infinity of Atoll Row and every single player house will be there, without any loadings or wait times.
    • Furniture stores located in the current four available areas have opened their doors. You can now visit them and buy furniture for your house decoration needs.
  • Access to new areas in Kisiwa: Kilima Peaks and the Barafu Glacier.
    • You can now board the cable car, explore the coldest areas of the Kilima Range, and discover the famous Temtem that inhabit it.
  • One new Tempedia entry.

Improvements

  • Improved the initial game loading to reduce the black screen and freeze issues happening during the process.
  • Included a new evolution cancel method.
    • From now on, apart from holding the button, pressing it 3 times will cancel the evolution as well. A visual indicator has been added.
    • The Back button (Esc on a keyboard, right click on the mouse, and B on an Xbox controller) can now also be used to cancel an evolution.
  • Enhanced and improved the Breeding Center. It’s now bigger, with more Temdecks, and can accommodate more Tamers.
  • All UIs are now accessible and usable with the mouse only.
  • Reduced the price on all Weakener Fruits and their relative candies.
  • Added some new particles to water and its interactions with tamers. Go get your feet wet!
  • Now, the egg currently placed in the incubator bag appears in that player’s Tamer Info.
  • Changed the disposition of the Settings section.
  • Looping emotes will now sync properly, so you can see others emote after entering a location.
