Oddsparks Hats and Helmets
Oddsparks Hats and Helmets

A new layer of style and strategy has arrived in the wonderfully weird world of Oddsparks: An Automation Adventure with the Hats & Helmets DLC pack.

Massive Miniteam and HandyGames have released the Hats & Helmets DLC, a new pack that proves that sometimes, a good hat is the most powerful tool of all.

Available now on PC, Xbox, and PlayStation, this playful yet powerful new downloadable content isn’t just about making your adorable Sparks look good – it’s about making your automated factories run smarter.

Function Meets Fashion in the Hats & Helmets DLC

Priced at a modest £6.69, the Hats & Helmets pack introduces a clever new mechanic that blends cosmetic customisation with deep logistical control.

Your Sparks are the lifeblood of your operation, and now they can work in style. This pack introduces 10 new hats and helmets, from rugged work gear to a fancy Flower Crown.

These aren’t just for show; you can now manufacture them yourself at the loom and use new workstations to equip or remove them from your Sparks as needed, adding a new layer of visual management to your crew.

Filter Your Factory Flow

Here’s where the magic happens. The headwear isn’t just for looks; it’s a key to smarter automation.

The DLC adds the new Spark Filter building, a powerful tool that allows you to create dedicated production lines by filtering your Sparks based on the specific hat they’re wearing.

This means you can have different kinds of Sparks using the same path but direct them to different workstations, opening up endless new possibilities for optimising your factory layouts and streamlining your supply chains.

A Fresh Spin on Automation

For those who may have missed its arrival, Oddsparks: An Automation Adventure is a unique blend of automation and real-time strategy set in a strange fantasy world. Instead of traditional conveyor belts, you design automated workshops and manage the traffic of your adorable Spark companions as they carry and craft everything you need.

It’s a game about solving logistics puzzles, exploring procedurally generated worlds, and uncovering the mysteries of the past.

When we first covered the news that Oddsparks was bringing its ‘Very Positive’ rated automation from PC to console, we highlighted its unique take on the genre. The Hats & Helmets DLC is a perfect example of that unique spin, turning a simple cosmetic idea into a deep, functional gameplay mechanic that feels perfectly at home in the game’s quirky universe.

It’s time to prove that a well-dressed workforce is an efficient workforce. Whether you’re a die-hard automation fan looking for new logistical puzzles to solve or a newcomer charmed by the adorable Sparks, this new DLC offers a brilliant new way to build, automate, and accessorise your way to success. The Oddsparks – Hats & Helmets DLC is available on digital stores now.

You’ll find the base game playable on Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5 and PC.

An Xbox gamer since 2002, I bought the big black box just to play Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee. I have since loved every second of the 360's life and am now just as obsessed with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S - mostly with the brilliant indie scene that has come to the fore.
