Artbook
The Buried Treasure DLC contains a 197 page artbook written by Nick Lives, the artist of We Need to go Deeper. It provides major insights into the game's development, showcasing many scrapped concepts. These include bosses, enemies, and in some cases items. Besides most images, there is a note written by Nick describing various things, such as the process of creation or reason for removal. A few concepts that were originally scrapped did make their way in following 1.0.0. These include enemies such as the Shifter being implemented in The Awakened Update. It is unknown if any more unused concepts will be added in future updates.

Extended Soundtrack
The Buried Treasure DLC also contains the game's entire soundtrack, including thirteen unused tracks, making for thirty five songs in total. Many of the unused songs were scrapped for various reasons that are yet to be specified. Some of them are designated as Cave and Civilization themes for the various biomes, such as for the Frozen Waters and the Aurelian Depths. Some of these songs were originally meant for to be certain area themes, but later got reworked into different themes. One of these songs include the theme of the Trash Hermit, which was supposedly originally going to be a theme for the Caves found in the Aurelian Depths. There are also some drafts for the theme's of some biomes, such as the Mechanical Abyss and the final biome. It is unknown if any of these unused themes will be added in future updates.
