Hi all,
I'm excited to finally announce the expansion's launch date:
Hacknet Labyrinths will launch at 8am PST on Friday March 31.
I want to thank you all for your patience and support along the way. Labyrinths has been a huge undertaking, and ended up much larger and more detailed than I originally planned. It's over half the size of the original game in most ways, and more than that in others.
You can get a glimpse in the new trailer we've just dropped and new screenshots on the Labyrinths store page:

We can also announce that there will be a full new soundtrack for Labyrinths also available on March 31st. It features 8 new tracks from Rémi Gallego, OGRE Cinematrik, Tonspender and HOME. It will cost $4.99.
Pricing the DLC has been interesting, because of how drastically it's size changed over development. In the end, we've decided on $6.99 as the base price for Labyrinths, to reflect the final size of the expansion.
That being said, I did say "Around $5.00", so we're sticking to that, and launching with a 20% discount on Labyrinths and the Labyrinths Soundtrack to bring that price a bit closer to what I said.
Whilst I've been focusing on Labyrinths these last few months, this isn't it - we're also getting close to having mod support ready to go. There will be more news on that very soon.
See you on the 31st,
-Matt

Bit, a hacker responsible for creating the most invasive security system on the planet, is dead. When he fails to reconnect to his system for 14 days, his failsafe kicks in, sending instructions in automated emails to a lone user. As that user, it’s up to you to unravel the mystery and ensure that Hacknet-OS doesn't fall into the wrong hands.
Exploring the volatile nature of personal privacy, the prevalence of corporate greed, and the hidden powers of hackers on the internet, Hacknet delivers a true hacking simulation, while offering a support system that allows total beginners get a grasp of the real-world applications and commands found throughout the game.
Features
Real Hacking
Based on actual UNIX commands, Hacknet focuses on real hacking, not the Hollywood-style version of it. This creates a truly immersive experience and puts players right in the thick of trying to break through the firewalls.
Unlock the mystery of Bit
A hacker is dead and the media reports don’t add up. When you are contacted by his “ghost” - an automated failsafe system - you’re drawn into the dark and murky world of underground hackers.
Full immersion
You are thrust into a persistent virtual world with no “levels” or obvious game elements to break the illusion. Follow the guidance of the emails from Bit or just dive down the rabbit hole, chasing down clues and snippets of information you find as you explore different systems.
Accessible but uncompromising
Whilst not holding your hand or dumbing down, the design of the game and the learning curve enables those with no prior terminal experience to enjoy it whilst delighting those in the know.
Killer tunes
Hack to the beat of a soundtrack featuring underground artists including Carpenter Brut (Hotline Miami) and Remi Gallego (AKA The Algorithm).
Soundtrack produced in association with The Otherworld Agency.
