Disco Elysium Twitch Companion

Put the power of choice in the hands of your viewers with the Disco Elysium Companion.

The latest update to Disco Elysium - The Final Cut resolves issues relating to the Twitch extension. We appreciate players' patience whilst we have worked on addressing these problems.

With support from Streaming Toolsmith, the necessary changes and updates have also been made to the plug-in itself.

Players can now generate a “secret key” and play Disco Elysium with an audience.

For those unfamiliar with the Disco Elysium Companion: this nifty plug-in allows streamers to play the game cooperatively with their viewers who are given the power to:

Vote on dialogue options, shaping the route of the game.
Inspect the game journal for information on the player’s stats and current focus of the playthrough.
Vote on which stats are boosted (and which are diminished!) using the Meditation feature.

Please note: we strongly recommend using Streamer Mode for your Twitch playthroughs. This eliminates the risk of copyright strikes.

*UPDATE* 27/06 15:18: this update is not currently available to players on Mac whilst we investigate issues flagged during the initial roll-out.

Disco Elysium's remaining devs were working on a spin-off that would've been the "most hardcore Disco since Disco" before ZA/UM layoffs

Following layoffs at ZA/UM earlier this year, some of the developers affected have provided some details about the Disco Elysium spin-off game they were busy working on prior to it being cancelled as part of them being let go. As with all of the Disco Elysium stuff we haven't gotten since the orginal came out, it sounds very cool.

If you're out of the loop, to say it's been a turbulent time for those working at the studio since Harry and Kim arrived in our lives back in 2019 would be a bit of an understatement. Prior to this year they're already been key figures in that first game's development parting ways with the studio, and documentaries exploring just how messy the situation had gotten.

Now, in report from PC Gamer, a number of former staff at the studio have shed some light on what the project codenamed X7 was looking like before it was canned.
