Physical Release?
I absolutely loved this game (played on GamePass, sorry Valve) and would LOVE to purchase a physical copy, preferably some sort of special edition with exclusive junk because I'm a sucker for ♥♥♥♥ like that. Does anyone know if the developers have any plans for a physical release??

Not sure why are apologizing to valve, if anything it should be towards the dev. I could see them doing it off the game sells well. Physical media costs money.

This is the kind of game which probably will never have any physical release because afaik, they are very small group of developers and physical copies are not very cheap.

I think the only choice you have is probably some kind of merchandise, they are selling a plushie of Kril, but it's sold out already, they are also selling a blanket with the ingame map (it's super expensive though).

Hi there! We'd like to do physical release in the future and it's likely, but if we do it'll be a little while away so don't hold out for too long!

If a physical version happens I'll buy for every console. This game is awesome. Please don't forget about us folks that like physical. We are a large market still and are starting to grow from the collecting crowd. Please make this happen.

thankfully, smaller developers aren't locked out of doing physical releases nowadays. steering clear of physical made sense in 2014, but not 2024. there are literally thousands of examples of small indie games with small indie teams getting physical releases on modern consoles.

physical copies cost money, yes. but I will always veer towards physical releases as long as they exist, and even if they cost more money. I prefer to physically own my games, especially now that we are all standing on the graveyard of the Wii, Wii U, 3DS, PSP, Vita, and now Xbox 360 digital stores. so physical = guaranteed money from this dude. digital = I'll wait for a sale or more often now, wait for a physical or potentially $0 from me

Aggro Crab, if you are reading this, count me in for buying a physical copy if it gets done! really glad to see a Soulslike with a more cartoonish and lighthearted vibe
