What to do
- Confirm you are on the 1.0 buildThe fifth shop level is a 1.0 feature. The official release post separates it from the earlier Shop Level 4 and Blob-Life additions.
- Open the shop-management upgrade viewUse the town/shop progression screen that reports your current shop level. Do not use the original Moonlighter's DLC Shop Level 5 table as a sequel requirement.
- Use the additional Bloblet slotThe official post says Shop Level 5 provides one more slot for companions in the shop. Bloblets are shop-run companions, not dungeon summons.
- Place the extra cosmeticThe second published change is a new cosmetic placement slot. It is a decoration position, not another relic showcase or backpack cell.
- Stop at the unknown costNo checked current source publishes a gold price, task gate, or final Bloblet count for this upgrade. Capture the in-game panel before adding a number.
How you know it worked
The shop-management view shows the extra Bloblet seat and the new cosmetic placement slot. If only one appears, record the platform, build, and shop rank before assuming the upgrade failed.
Platform and version boundaries
| Published effect | One additional Bloblet slot and one new cosmetic placement slot. |
|---|---|
| Not published | Unlock cost, prerequisite task, exact total Bloblet capacity, and platform-specific menu wording. |
| Shop only | The Bloblet slot is for the shop run; it does not add a combat companion, co-op slot, or backpack space. |
| Wrong game | Do not import the original Moonlighter's DLC Shop Level 5 price or furniture totals. |
Common failure branches
- Stop and verify: The 1.0 announcement and current guides do not give the gold cost or progression gate.
- Stop and verify: The final Bloblet count depends on how many slots the player already owns and is not stated in the checked official text.
- Stop and verify: A platform-specific UI may label the cosmetic placement slot differently.
