The Forge Island 3 - Winter Update Details
The developers behind the popular Roblox experience have officially confirmed that they are already working on The Forge’s Island 3. While we don’t yet know the name of the new location, we do know that the island is set in a brand-new biome, completely different from the previous two. Here’s everything we currently know about it, based on the developers’ sneak-peek images:
- It’s a winter biome, with locations covered in snow and ice.
- It will feature a brand-new hub with both new and returning NPCs.
- It will include several new major questlines.
- The Forge Winter Update will include at least one new weapon type - Spears!
- There will be at least one new armor variation, the Viking-inspired heavy armor!
- It will be populated with new, icy-themed enemy types, such as frozen spiders and more.
- The Third Island update will introduce at least a few new ore types, a new Pickaxe, new Traits, and more.
- New boss fights!
New Enemy Types
The developers have shared several images showcasing new enemy models for The Forge’s Third Island. These enemies follow the island’s icy theme, appearing to be made of ice crystals and cold elemental energy.
So far, we’ve seen two enemy types: the Ice Crystal Bug and a Bigger Bug Enemy (likely a work-in-progress name for the large spider). And speaking of spiders, if you’re arachnophobic, don’t worry. The update will include an Arachnophobia Filter mode!
Third Island Bosses
The Forge Island 3 update will bring at least one new confirmed boss. We don’t yet know the boss’s name, stats, abilities, or drops, but we do have an image. The boss appears to be a horned skeleton wielding two chained weapons: a massive double axe (labrys) in each hand. Based on the image, we expect the boss to have a huge range thanks to the length of the chains, forcing you to constantly dodge long-distance chain-axe swings while trying to close the gap and fight him up close.
The Forge Spear - New Weapon Type
The developers have officially confirmed that the Forge Third Island Winter Update is introducing an entirely new weapon type! The update will add the Spear weapon class to The Forge. While we still don’t have specifics about the Spear’s stats, abilities, or variations, the devs have shared an in-game model image on their Discord server, and you can check it out below.
New Armor Variation in The Forge Winter Update
The Forge Island 3 update will also introduce a new heavy-armor variation. It's clearly inspired by Viking aesthetics and Norse mythology, wrapped in a dark high-fantasy style. The armor features beast motifs (likely a wolf or a bear) on the mask and fur cape, evoking the image of a Jarl or a Viking king ready for a frozen tundra. Wearing the face of a predator suggests that the wearer is channeling that creature’s ferocity, which absolutely screams berserker to me.
Then there are the dark-fantasy touches: glowing red eyes peering out from inside the helmet, giving the armor a sinister, supernatural feel, along with chains wrapped across the chest plate and spikes jutting from the shoulder pads. If you’re as excited about this armor as I am, check out the new sneak-peek image of the model shared by the developers.
Third Island Release Date
The developers have now officially confirmed that the new Winter Update is set to be released on December 25, 2025. That first major update will include all the content listed here, including the third island, and much more. Stay tuned as we learn more details, which we will immediately add to our preview article.
