The folks at GOG have announced that Sword of the Stars: The Pit will only be sold in a bundle that includes the Gold Edition and the Mindgames DLC from now on. The classic edition will receive updates when needed, but new content, features and DLC will only be released for the new bundle:
Starting today, Sword of the Stars: The Pit Gold Edition will become the main and definitive edition of the series on GOG.com. The pack includes the base game, the Gold Edition content, and the Mindgames DLC in a single installer — as well as GOG Galaxy support for achievements! While the classic edition is set to receive any necessary stability and bug patches, all active development of new content, features, and DLC is planned to continue on the Gold Edition — all to ensure swift updates and content parity across all platforms.
In case you own all the content that is included in the bundle, you'll automatically be upgraded to this version, otherwise you'll have to fork some money. However, the upgrade options will be greatly discounted until the end of this month, which should help ease the transition to the new model:
If you already own Sword of the Stars: The Pit + Gold Edition Upgrade + Mindgames DLC or the previous version of SOTS: The Pit - Gold Edition — you'll be upgraded to the newest edition automatically!
If you own any other combination of the Sword of the Stars: The Pit products so far, you can also take advantage of the limited-time offer on the new Gold Edition:
The new Sword of the Stars: The Pit – Gold Edition is:
90% off — if you own Sword of the Stars: The Pit + Mindgames DLC
70% off — if you own Sword of the Stars: The Pit
If you decide to upgrade later down the line, you'll still be able to upgrade at any point — but these discounts will only last until July 30, 12:59 PM UTC.
Also, if you happened to own the game of Shinyloot, you'll able to access the game through GOG, provided you can offer a proof of purchase. These are the eligible products, and you can find more information on the process at the GOG website:
With the recent closing of Shinyloot, a number of Sword of the Stars: The Pit fans were left without access to their game and DLC. We're now happy to announce that we've joined forces with Kerberos Productions, the game’s developer and publisher, to give everyone affected a new home for the roguelike wonder – right here on GOG.com.
These are the eligible products:
SOTS: The Pit Gold Edition
SOTS: The Pit Gold Edition – Pilgrim
SOTS: The Pit Gold Edition – Juggernaut
