Please note that this price increase will not impact you if you already own the game. The new price will take effect when Episode Four ships, so this is your last opportunity to purchase THE LONG DARK at its current $29.99 price. We feel this is more reflective of the current state of the game in terms of quality and the scope of content. With the launch of Episode Four, we’re increasing the price for THE LONG DARK to $34.99 USD ($5 increase). When we launched our 1.0 in August of 2017, we bumped the price up to $29.99 USD.

When we had THE LONG DARK in Early Access on Steam and on Xbox Game Preview, it was priced at $19.99 USD. For our Survival Mode fans, Blackrock Region will be added to Survival Mode before the end of the year, along with a few other additions. True to our typical tradition, we aren’t announcing a release date until we are very close to launch, so stay tuned for that. Most of the bugs are fixed, and we’re in the final stages of localization, optimization, and preparing things for launch. The team is heading into the final stretch of the episode. Featuring 7-10 hours of gameplay, 60 minutes of narrative cinematics, and over 40 minutes of new music, Episode Four also introduces new key characters to the WINTERMUTE storyline, and puts the final narrative threads in place that will later be resolved in Episode Five (ship date TBD).

The episode takes place in a brand new region dominated by an old prison complex built under the shadow of Blackrock Mountain. Can Mackenzie recover the Hardcase, continue his search for Astrid, and also save the innocents caught up in this deadly confrontation? Desperate to escape one of the darkest corners of Great Bear Island, he must somehow survive his fiercest enemy yet. Today we reveal the key art and title for Episode Four of The Long Dark’s WINTERMUTE story mode: Episode Four: “Fury, Then Silence”Ī murderous gang of convicts has captured Mackenzie.
