The Gorge

The Gorge is an Event exclusive to Don't Starve Together, and the second of a planned series of such events. It follows the events of The Forge, the first event. The Gorge is a 3-person challenge involving cooking, farming, and gathering ingredients.

A beta of the event started on June 12th, 2018.

Official Description
''After barely escaping through the Molten Gateway, our survivors plummet headfirst into the ruins of a sickly city ruled by a ravenous beast. Work together to cook fine dishes and placate the Eternal Gnaw's hunger to avoid the curse of its terrible plague. Cook well enough, and you may even get to go home.''

Setting Up
Players can join other players either via Quick Match, which drops them into the best server the matchmaker finds, or by manually browsing available servers. Alternatively, a player can request a custom server via Custom Match, allowing them to set the server's name, description, password and whether or not it is associated with a Steam Group. All Gorge matches take place on special dedicated servers, and as such, players cannot host their own servers.

It is not necessary to have a full set of three players to start a match, though it is recommended to do so. A round will begin either when all three player slots are filled up, or when all players in an incomplete party vote to begin without the full three.

Gameplay
A character in Gorge gameplay mode does not have any Health, Hunger or Sanity, and only five inventory slots (four normal ones and a Hand slot). Characters spawn at the Ancient Gateway. The game is governed by the Gnaw's patience meter, which depletes over time. The goal is to feed the Gnaw enough times before the meter fully runs out, or the player party will be turned into Merms.

Trivia

 * The Gorge, through its associated skins, was first made known to players through an accidental leak on May 23, 2018, where the event was called the Quagmire.
