“We've poured our souls into this game over the past couple of years, and it's been profoundly moving to see so many people connect with such an esoteric work,” said Tony Howard-Arias, Black Tabby Games co-founder. “We're so happy that the fans gave us the support we needed to revisit the game and elevate it into something even better than it was at launch. All of these finishing touches have gone a long way.”
"Holy shit," added Abby Howard, the studio's other co-founder.
Slay The Princess - The Pristine Cut is the definitive edition of Slay the Princess, which originally launched on PC in 2023. The Pristine Cut brought the celebrated indie to consoles for the first time alongside a host of brand-new content and expansions to previously available routes.
