It's FICSMAS time! Satisfactory’s Festive Event Returns for Both PC and Console Players

The festive spirit is returning to Satisfactory, rolling across the production lines with a cheerful clatter! Coffee Stain Studios’ fan-favourite and award winning factory-building simulator welcomes back its beloved free in-game FICSMAS event from December 1st to January 18th! The FICSMAS event returns this year for PC fans of the hit automation sim, and for the newly recruited console players.

During this limited-time celebration, players will notice gifts raining down from the sky, and a festive Advent Calendar with an unexpected twist waiting inside the HUB. By unlocking those daily calendar doors, players can enjoy an assortment of holiday decorations, including a shimmering FICSMAS tree and festive ornaments to adorn their well-crafted constructions.

Coffee Stain Studios will also herald the return of the FICSMAS Community Competition, where players are invited to put on their most festive construction hats to create the ultimate festive FICSMAS scene - a jolly construction that doesn’t just look the part, but also operates with peak factory efficiency. This year, players can construct their functional-yet-festive workshops for two categories: PC FICSMAS Build of the Year and Console FICSMAS Build of the Year.

Running from now until January 9th, entries will be judged on creativity, functionality, and just how outrageously they lean into the FICSMAS spirit, with lots of goodies to be won for both PC and console players.

Satisfactory and this year's FICSMAS update is available to play now on Steam and Epic Games Store for PC players, and on the PlayStation Store and Xbox Store for console players.
