The Tenants News

Hello there, Landlords!



Today we wanted to remind you about our planned price increase that will go live on the 19th of September. As we mentioned in our original Early Access statement, we intended to increase the base price of The Tenants as we leave EA and launch the 1.0 version of the game.

Since the release in March of 2021 the game has grown enormously in both scope and complexity, and we're extremely excited about the upcoming 1.0 release, which we hope will tackle the most pressing issues that you've mentioned on both Steam and our official Discord server. Starting on Monday, The Tenants will be available for $24.99 / £19.49 / €20.99 or your regional equivalent.

(what might that be? ːtt_thinkingː)

We will post more details about the 1.0 update in the upcoming weeks, so stay on the lookout for more teasers and announcements. The full release is but a step in our overall journey and there's many new things still coming in the future! And if you want to purchase The Tenants at the current price before it's increased, make sure to do that before Monday.

Thank you,
Ancient Forge Studio
