Empires of the Undergrowth: Exploding Ants is the first expansion to the RTS titled Empires of the Undergrowth, which left early access in June 2024 (where it first spent 6.5 years). The DLC was developed by the authors of the original, namely the Slug Disco Studios team.

New features in the expansion

The biggest novelty introduced in Empires of the Undergrowth: Exploding Ants are two new species - one for termites and one for ants.

Autothysis

As the title of the add-on suggests, the distinctive feature of the new species is the ability to explode. We are talking about so-called autothysis, which involves triggering a chain reaction by their glands, leading to an explosion and dousing the target with toxic secretion. In this way, they dedicate their lives to protect the colony from attackers.

New ants

The add-on gives us access to three new types of ants originating from the Colobopsis explodens species. Among their representatives, the leading roles are played by soldiers capable of exploding and injuring, as well as temporarily slowing down enemies within the range of the explosion.
