'Wingspan' Oceania Expansion Announced, Coming Soon - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Oct. 25, 2022 @ 9:43 a.m. PDT

Wingspan is a relaxing strategy card game where your goal is to discover and attract the best birds your network of wildlife preserves.

Based on the award-winning board game of the same name, Wingspan is an exciting adventure where up to 5 players compete to build up their nature preserves in a limited number of turns.

You are bird enthusiasts—researchers, bird watchers, ornithologists, and collectors—seeking to discover and attract the best birds to your network of natural wildlife preserves, a shelter for many bird species. Each bird you play can build a chain of powerful combinations in one of your three habitats – forest, wetland, and grassland. Every habitat focuses on a key aspect of growing your reserves.

Discover new bird species and attract them by offering their favorite food. But keep in mind their natural habitat – animals won't settle in conditions they aren't adapted to. Have them lay eggs so you’ll be able to play new birds and gain more points. Roll the dice to gather food and draw cards to expand your reserve. Remember – each of the 170 unique birds has powers that echo real life: your hawks will hunt, your pelicans will fish, and your geese will form a flock.

Learn a fact or two about your feathered friends’ habits, but most importantly, sit back and relax while you enjoy this soothing gameplay experience. 


Let your Wingspan game burst with color, exotic bird sounds, new species, foods, challenges and embark on a journey through the breathtaking lands of Oceania with the second upcoming Wingspan DLC – Oceania Expansion.

Learn about birds from around Australia and New Zealand and all-new resources and mechanics that will enrich your wildlife preserve adventure.

New content:

  • Attract nearly 100 new birds to your wildlife preserve: Birds from the Oceania region await you in the second expansion to Wingspan. Learn more about them with interesting facts written on cards and real recordings of the sounds they make. Many of them have brand new skills, including a yellow 'end game' ability that activates when the game is over.
  • Feed your birds with new food – nectar: The digital version of Wingspan has never been better! A new food type – nectar – will appear in your inventory. It is an essential ingredient in the nutrition of Oceanic birds. It’s also an excellent substitute for other types of bird food from different parts of the world. Employ it in your strategy and, at the end of the game, count how much you spent – you’ll receive two points for every nectar used!
  • Take on new challenges: Along with new bird abilities, Oceania Expansion offers new bonus cards and end-of-round goals. Now you have to pay attention to more details – not only to the sets of birds and nests and their wingspan, but also the direction your bird's beak is facing on the card. There may also encounter a round with no end goal. All these challenges and many more will add variety to your subsequent games.
  • New alternative player board: The player board now has a new design with additional functionalities. On it you will find not only a place for your nectar, but also options to reset the bird feeder and card tray. The board also enables you to get more food and cards quicker than before, while laying eggs is reduced. All these changes diversify the dynamics of the game.
  • Listen to more relaxing music: In Wingspan: Oceania Expansion, the developers continue to expand the game with new tracks composed by Paweł Górniak. Let yourself be carried away by a soothing soundtrack that will make the game even more enjoyable.
  • New backgrounds and portraits inspired by Oceania: The beauty and diversity of Oceania have also inspired developers to create picturesque backgrounds to play games against and portraits that relate to the local fauna. Choose your favorite graphic and get closer to the nature of the continent.
  • Enjoy all the features of the base version of the game: With Wingspan: Oceania Expansion, you don't lose any of the features available in the basic version of the game, regardless of whether you also own the European Expansion. Play with friends in cross-platform multiplayer mode, test your skills in weekly challenges, and play against Automa – now with additional bonus cards and new end-of-round goals.
