In a new interview with Screen Rant, Sea of Stars creative director and president of Sabotage Studios Thierry Boulanger made a promise to fans: more content is on the way. Along with a physical release and a special vinyl, DLC is coming at some point in the future, and a reveal trailer may be right around the corner.
“We are working on DLC, actually,” Boulanger said. “We have yet to sort of show the theme, maybe we’re cooking some reveal trailer soon. But yeah, DLC is absolutely coming.”
In March, the dev team announced that a three-player couch co-op mode, dubbed Single Player+, was being added to the game to celebrate five million players.
“It’s important for us, because seeing the reactions and the attachment to the characters and everything, and there’s a bit more of a story to tell there. So that’s what we’re working on right now along with prototyping our next game, but that will probably be a couple of years before we’re ready to reveal anything,” Boulanger concluded.
In Sea of Stars, players control Valere and Zale, Solstice Warriors who utilize the power of the sun and moon to fight a god-like alchemist called the Fleshmancer. They are joined on their quest by Garl, a warrior-cook and childhood friend, Seraï, an assassin, B’st, a golem, and Resh’an, an immortal alchemist.
The game won Best Indie Game at the 2023 Golden Joystick Awards and Best Independent Game at The Game Awards 2023.
Sea of Stars is available for PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. The game was released in 2023 after a delay to prioritize the development team’s health and ensure that the title was completed to the company’s standards.
Additionally, the game is free to Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass subscribers. It’s also available on PlayStation Plus’ Extra and Premium membership tiers.
