Sabotage Studio has released Sea of Stars: Sunset Edition, the final update for the acclaimed RPG now available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PC via Steam and GOG, Android and iOS.
This marks the official end of development as the studio shifts fully to its next project, Project Sparrow.
A New Opening and a Stronger Narrative Foundation
Sunset Edition introduces a refreshed opening cinematic and an expanded flashback sequence, reinforcing the emotional groundwork of Valere and Zale’s story.
Normal and Hard modes have also been rebalanced to offer a smoother difficulty curve without compromising challenge.
Key Gameplay Adjustments
One of the biggest changes is the split of the Tactician’s Mettle relic into two separate relics:
- Tactician’s Mettle
- Ray of Sunset
This gives players more control over difficulty modifiers and build customization.
The update also coincides with the game’s launch on GOG and Nintendo Switch 2, with the latter supporting GameShare functionality.
To celebrate, Sea of Stars is currently 50 percent off on Steam, making it an ideal moment for newcomers to jump in.
Collector’s Edition Shipping Later This Year
Sabotage Studio confirmed that the iam8bit Collector’s Edition will begin shipping before the end of the year, giving fans one last physical keepsake from the world of Sea of Stars.
A Final Look at the Adventure
Sea of Stars follows Valere and Zale, two Solstice Warriors who wield Eclipse Magic to battle the sinister alchemist known as The Fleshmancer.
The turn‑based combat system emphasizes strategy over grinding, with new abilities unlocked through story progression rather than repetitive battles.
Players command a party of six heroes, timing attacks, anticipating enemy patterns and using clever combos to survive tougher encounters.
A Fond Farewell Before the Next Chapter
With Sunset Edition, Sabotage Studio closes the book on Sea of Stars while opening the door to its next universe.
The update enriches the game’s opening, sharpens its systems and gives fans one last reason to return to its beautifully crafted world.
