The Demo Update brings new gameplay possibilities
Today we present you a brand new update for House Flipper.
It's actually a unique kind of content, the first one of this type for us so please let us know what you think about it.
For a very long time Flippers had no way to try out the content available in House Flipper DLCs.
We felt like it's time to change that, and create something that will allow you to test the grounds and go for a more conscious purchase.
With this update, you will be able to play some demonstrative job orders from the Garden, HGTV, and Luxury DLCs without having to own them. We hope this will give you just enough insight into the type of content each of those DLCs contain.
What you can expect:
- Three new jobs added to base game to show you the mechanics and environments from the Garden, HGTV and Luxury DLCs
- Three houses based on the Demo jobs
- Around 100 new items such as kitchen sets, tables, cabinets and wardrobes
Extra Farm DLC improvements
Along with the update, we're also releasing a bunch of new Farm DLC improvements, here's the full list:
