The retail edition features the game alongside four art cards, featuring perfectly mundane imagery from treasured Stanley Parable locations. It will be available at retailers worldwide starting July 19.
The iam8bit Collector’s Edition is an elite collection featuring exclusive cover art by Fatih Oztürk. Including The Stanley Parable: Reassurance Bucket Manual, several “Official Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe Merchandise” stickers AND a 5” PVC Stanley figurine (also known as Figleys, Stanlurines, Mini-Stans, Stanley-Figs, Figlureanlurines, Figanleys, Stiggley-Wiggleys)- this collection is not for the mundane fan. 

For the ultimate ticket to a new world of productivity, fans are in luck with The Stanley Parable CopyConductor 980 TX Instructional Audio Tape. A CopyConductor 980 TX Instructional Tape on #ffffff Cassette, this efficient machine possesses two sides of instructional audio, occasionally interrupted by new music, remixes and bonus audio content by Kevan Brighting, Tom Schley and William Pugh.

The Stanley Parable 2xLP is an eclectic collection of the very best songs from the hallmark indie title, spread across two discs and pressed recycled black vinyl. Featuring extraordinary music from The Blake Robinson Synthetic Orchestra, Yiannis Ioannides, Christiaan Bakker, and Tom Schley. Experience a mix of whimsical orchestral tunes, surprisingly tense ambient sounds, and heroically inspiring themes, sure to stir something deep within the formerly settled soul. Boasting brilliant album art by Dominik Johann and additional album art by William Pugh featuring a loving tribute to Stanley’s possibly-traitorous sole companion, The Reassurance Bucket. Reassured fans who purchase the 2xLP will also receive a treat of (3) 18x24 motivational posters. 

Hey Tony, The Button That Says The Name Of The Player Playing The Game lights up correctly but all it ever says is “Jim”. I don’t know how to fix it, it just keeps saying “Jim”. We loaded all the names in the world onto the button but… it just- it just calls everybody Jim!? I thought it was supposed to say my name, or… the name of somebody playing The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe but… I don’t know. I am just so stressed out by this, we’re supposed to be announcing today. Maybe I am Jim? Maybe that’s who I’ve been? I’ve not felt like myself… Please don’t include this in the press release, I just needed somebody to vent to… - Jim
Shipping for the iam8bit Collector’s Edition, The Stanley Parable CopyConductor 980 TX Instructional Audio Tape and The Stanley Parable 2xLP begins in Q3 2024.
