Greetings, ladies, gentlemen, and any eldritch entities watching us from the void!

We are proud to announce that the second major Content Update, Brasko's Mansion, is now available for everyone to download! We would like to thank everyone who took part in our Open Beta of the update - your feedback has been invaluable, and we were able to make additional improvements, fixes and generally polish the final version that everyone can play now.

However due to these changes, we recommend that you use a save game made before starting the beta, the backups we asked you to make - changes to the level design, such as moved doors and entrances, as well as tweaks to monsters' placement and behavior, can cause the saves made during beta to produce unpredictable results, or become corrupted altogether.

For those who have not yet visited the mysterious Mansion, we have prepared a new trailer to soak in some of its atmosphere:

[h2]Fulqrum Publisher Sale[/h2]
We are also taking this opportunity to put the game will also be 20% off as part of the Fulqrum Publisher Sale - the discount will run all the way until January 5th, 2026, so it's the perfect opportunity to grab Stygian: Outer Gods or any other game as a Christmas present to yourself or your loved ones. We especially recommend checking out the bundles Stygian is a part of, since they allow you to get an extra discount on the other games there you might not own yet:

• The Stygian Franchise Bundle for those who want to experience the original Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones.
  
• Lovecraftian Madness Bundle is the right choice for you if you want to battle insane horrors in Forgive Me Father and Lovecraft's Untold Stories.
  
• Building Up Madness is intended for those who wish to build a madness-infected cult in Worshippers of Cthulhu.
  

[h2]Supporter Pack Available[/h2]
And last piece of news we have for you today, we have also released the "Supporter Pack" for Stygian: Outer Gods. It is not a typical DLC; the pack does not add new content to the game or change your gameplay experience in an Earth-shattering way. Instead, by picking it up, you’ll be supporting the developers on their journey, helping them bring the world ever closer to the Black Day.

While looking for a way to show our eternal gratitude, and to say “THANK YOU” to all those who decide to support us in this manner, we have reached beyond the veil and consulted with none other than Daniel Upton, who agreed to provide the following boon to any who purchase the Stygian: Outer Gods Supporter Pack:

[h3]Daniel Upton’s Clandestine Gift[/h3]

• a unique, upgradable weapon: an antique Cutlass
  
• a dose of clarity for fighting the horrors ahead (sanity potion)
  
• a dedicated letter from Daniel Upton himself
  
• a set of wallpapers for your devices
  

We would like to once again thank each and every one of you who have played the game so far. Please, do not stop sharing your feedback and suggestions, either through comments here, in the Steam Discussions or even better, on the official Stygian: Outer Gods Discord server. We are not at the end of our Early Access voyage yet, and even though we can feel the Black Day looming up ahead, we still require your guidance and support.

We hope you will survive the new portion of madness in Kingsport with your body and soul intact, and we will have more news to share soon.

Greetings, ladies, gentlemen, and any eldritch entities watching us from the void!

We are excited to see how many of you have joined the Open Beta of Stygian: Outer Gods' upcoming Content Update, and even more thrilled to say that the technical issue preventing us from further work on localizations has been fixed - we are now moving to the last stages of preparing the update, so that everyone can delve into the newly opened Brasko Mansion, scour the dungeons beneath it and brave the twisted paths of its garden maze.

Thanks to our ongoing Open Beta, the bravest adventurers can already enter these new places and face the horrors lurking within. We implore those courageous souls: after returning, should your mind remain intact, share your insights with us on the official Stygian: Outer Gods Discord server or here in the Steam Discussions. We need your feedback and suggestions to help us successfully navigate the treacherous waters of Early Access and make Stygian: Outer Gods into the unique lovecraftian experience we all want it to be. If you still wish to join and explore the new areas, you can find instructions to activate the Open Beta here. And if you are still unsure, or just curious to see a bit more, we have prepared a short teaser of the new content:

And with the end of the year hastily approaching and days becoming shorter, we find ourselves at a time of reflection and contemplation - signified among other things by the annual Steam Awards. We encourage everyone to go and vote for their favorite game(s) of the year - let your voice be heard! And we humbly put forward Stygian: Outer Gods for your consideration for the “Outstanding Story-Rich Game” category.



If you think us overtaken by the creeping madness for suggesting such a thing for a game still in Early Access, perhaps we are. But if you are enjoying the game nonetheless and can see its potential already, then we beseech you to leave your recommendation/review here on Steam - help those who come after you decide whether to set sail towards Kingsport.

Thank you and may your mind remain untouched by the coming of the Black Day!

[p]Greetings, ladies, gentlemen, and any eldritch entities watching us from the void!

The upcoming second Content Update for Stygian: Outer Gods is close to finished, and to celebrate the coming of this year's spooky season and the annual Steam Scream Fest, you are cordially invited to be among the first to experience it through our Open Beta. This is your chance to explore new content, test improvements, and help shape the new update before its official release. Also, as part of the aforementioned Steam sale, the game is 20% off until November 3!

Should you heed our call and join the beta version of the update, you will be able to explore the eerie corridors of the Right Wing of the mysterious Brasko Mansion, get lost in its sprawling Gardens, and even venture once again to the frightful dimension known as the Other World. And you'd better stay on your toes - the new areas are haunted by undead denizens, and you may even encounter a Dimensional Shambler!

[/p][p]
We encourage everyone to join the Open Beta and share as much feedback as possible. Your insights will be invaluable in helping us fine-tune the update and ensure the best possible experience for all players.

However, please note, that as the update is not completely finalized and is only in a beta state at the moment, it has not been translated to other languages besides English yet. Even if you select one of the other available languages for the game in the beta version, the new content will only show English texts.

You can continue playing from your current saves in the beta, but we strongly recommend making a back-up of your saves as there might be issues with continuing from saves made during the beta once the update goes live for everyone. You can do so by copying all the files from this location and putting them aside:

C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Stygian\Saved\SaveGames

If you need help with doing so, or have any other questions, don't hesitate to reach out to us here on Steam or on the Stygian: Outer Gods Discord server.

To access the Open Beta branch, head to your Steam Library, right-click Stygian: Outer Gods, left-click Properties, left-click Betas and from the drop-down menu select the option "public_beta". Your Steam client will then download the Content Update.


Every bit of feedback helps us make Stygian: Outer Gods even better; so jump in, explore, experiment and let us know what you think of the new content and improvements to the game; be it in the comments here, in the Steam Discussions or the official Stygian: Outer Gods Discord server. And if you already like the game and want to support us in its growth and further development, please, consider leaving a positive review here on Steam.

Thank you, and may the Ancient Ones watch over you this Halloween season!

[p]Greetings, ladies, gentlemen, and any eldritch entities watching us from the void!

Our very first content update, Souls of the Silent Tide, has already been released, and we’re curious – how are you enjoying it so far? If you’d like to share your thoughts or suggestions, our official Discord server and the Steam Discussions are the perfect places to do so.

But this is only the beginning. For the next major content update, we’re planning to expand the borders of Kingsport with a new location: The Mansion. Within its halls and grounds, you will discover unsettling foes, mysterious characters, new mechanics, quests, weapons, artifacts, and a host of additional voice-overs to deepen the atmosphere.

Take a peek at our updated roadmap to see what all lies ahead:


However, before we introduce the next chapter in the story of Stygian: Outer Gods, we are working on bringing you a patch to fix the missing lines and other errors in the new localizations. A huge thank you goes to you, our dear community, for your invaluable help in identifying them!

Thanks again for your unwavering support, and may the unseen powers that drift through the cosmos watch over your days![/p]
