The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is coming in April

It's been quite the wait, but The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe now has an official release date, and it's coming out soon. The expanded edition of the groundbreaking 2013 indie game will launch April 27 on Steam, and it'll be adding a wealth of new content to Stanley's introspective adventure.


The Stanley Parable is a game that in ages past was somewhat derisively called a 'walking simulator,' but it's a rather biting and stark look at the fundamental ideas of game design and the relationships players form with game worlds and mechanics. Playing the game involves interrogating your own inclination to either follow the directions the game provides or attempt to break the rules, and The Stanley Parable's dryly funny narrator remarks on each decision you make.


As we've reported, the 'Ultra Deluxe' edition of the Stanley Parable will include new content, meaning new adventures for Stanley and the long-suffering narrator, and new endings to discover. Originally scheduled for 2019, it was delayed to 2020 - but as we all know, that was a bit of a weird year for release dates.

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe will mess with your mind in new ways this April




It's been nearly ten years since The Stanley Parable stuck a fork into our brains and twirled it around like a bowl of spaghetti. The first-person adventure, a seemingly simple story of an employee dutifully following an offscreen narrator's instructions, quickly branched off into absurd, baffling, hilarious, and sometimes disturbing pathways as it explored the nature of choice and free will in video games...
