Days mean nothing in the maw of forever. The wait is over. The Pristine Cut is finally here. For those of you who aren't aware, The Pristine Cut is a free upgrade to the base game, that among other things:

• Expands the game by roughly 35%. This means thousands of new voice lines, over a thousand new illustrations, and 17 tracks of brand new music.
• Adds significant glow-ups for The Fury, The Den, and the Apotheosis, each of which has over three times as much stuff to see as they had in the base game.
• Introduces three brand new Princesses that branch off of The Damsel, the Prisoner, and the Spectre.
• Adds an entirely new ending to the game.
• Adds a deep, interactive gallery to help you chart your progress across over 420 unlocks and that brings back your best (and worst) memories with the Princess.
• Provides subtitle support for: Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, European Spanish, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Korean, Japanese, German, Polish, French, Russian, and Italian.
• Brings the game to consoles PS4 + 5, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox! And if you're the sort who collects things, both the PS5 and Nintendo Switch versions are getting a physical release, including a collector's edition!

The Pristine Cut is being distributed as a free upgrade to everyone who already owns the game on Steam. All you have to do to play is download the update we've pushed live. If you'd like to go back to previous versions of the game, you can access them on the following beta branches: The End of Everything Update - password: endofeverything The Launch Version - password: originalrecipe As a note because folks have asked unfortunately the gallery does not retroactively sync with your progress. We looked into what options we had to make that possible, but the only ones available to us were messy, incomplete, and impossible to bug test. We decided it would be best to launch the gallery bug-free than to take an extra risks. Thank you for understanding! We're also excited to announce that we're putting out a vinyl with Lost in Cult records, containing live orchestral recordings of a ton of tracks from the base game, as well as some new.
Pick it up when you get the chance! (And maybe don't look at the track list until you finish The Pristine Cut) If you're in the UK or EU, ordering through Lost in Cult will be your best bet, and if you're in North America, Serenity Forge has the version for you. Same tracks, all of it's glow in the dark, just saving you on shipping and import costs! In case you missed our earlier announcements, the console versions have physical and collector's editions coming next year, including a smaller EU version so if you live in Europe, you'll be able to avoid extra shipping costs!

A few other notes for housekeeping:

• We're moving away from Twitter as our primary social media platform. The best places to find us now are Bluesky and Tumblr.
• If you're looking for places to chat about the game with other players, our subreddit and Discord are where to go!
• We're disabling the demo for the time being. This is because the demo isn't localized, and we don't want to confuse our players on the state of translations in the final version of the game. If you'd like to play the demo, you can find it on itch.io.

Thank you so much for all of the support, we hope you have a great time, and we can't wait to share what's next! (More Scarlet Hollow!) All the best, Tony and Abby
