Two New Upland Starter Cities on the Horizon!
As Upland continues to welcome a growing community of players, we are gearing up to introduce Trenton, New Jersey and Stockton, California as new starter cities, specifically designed to enhance the entry experience for newcomers.
Each city will feature about 85% of properties designated under the Fair Start Act (FSA), providing a more accessible entry point for newcomers.
Unlike our recent Vanilla city launches, all property collections in these starter cities will be disclosed beforehand (see below), giving players the opportunity to strategize their acquisitions with complete information.
Given that these cities are primarily designated as FSA areas, we will not be announcing their release times in advance. This approach is taken to maintain the integrity and purpose of FSA cities, ensuring equal opportunities for new players to engage and invest in the Upland community.
The cities are set to launch sometime in the next week, and we will release new neighborhoods within these cities as demand dictates, unannounced.

FSA Update
In our ongoing commitment to growth and supporting new players, we’re adjusting the FSA property minting limit. Players can now mint a total of 10 FSA properties over the lifetime of their account. This change aims to ensure that newcomers have ample opportunities to immerse themselves in the Upland experience and become part of our amazing community.
We’ll closely monitor this adjustment to ensure that FSA properties are reaching real, new players, maintaining the balance and integrity of our expanding Upland universe.
Welcome Newcomers
We are eagerly anticipating the arrival of many new players in Upland through the gateways of Stockton and Trenton! These cities have been thoughtfully prepared to offer an enriching and welcoming experience, ensuring that every newcomer can fully immerse themselves in the vibrant world of Upland!
