MINERAL ROADMAP

Introduction

We want to be transparent and open with the development and future of Mineral (we will do the same with all Xitol games). We are a small team and we designed Mineral to be a complete game, but that hasn’t stopped us having ideas on how to expand Mineral, as well as acting on feedback from those around us.

This roadmap is how we are breaking down the development to expand Mineral into a larger game, both with free updates and paid DLC packs.

UPDATE: 03/03/2025: Roadmap Reflects a new content plan, with Noble Core moving to a later update (TU 1.3) and a new Level Pack coming as part of the 1.2 Update. We are now releasing Level Packs (Smaller DLC which include updates to the base Mineral Game) and Expansion Packs (Larger DLC with their own Style, Content and Unique Features).

UPDATE: 29/06/2025: Due to issue we are having with our DLC unlock system with certain platforms, we are currently delayed in releasing Domino’s Run, this has caused a knock-on effect and change to future content packs.

UPDATE: 23/07/2025: We are now releasing Title Update 1.2 on a platform by platform basis due to unexpected issues. We have released Domino’s Run for Free as part of the 1.2 Update, and will release Anniversary for Free as part of Title Update 1.3. We have also taken the decision to reduce the post-launch content so that we can work on a new project!

Summary

We hope you appreciate our transparency and plan for our roadmap, each DLC is built on ideas we have been suggested or have had ourselves since Mineral Launched. We haven’t cut anything back to sell at a later point, and each DLC will include a range of new content. We had to split it up to release it in manageable sizes, and for it to be fairly priced.

We shall update this page with any changes, including notes of these changes at the top of the page.

We expect to do several Title Updates for Mineral, of varying sizes, before we move on to work on and announce our next main game.
