Sea of Stars captured the hearts of RPG fans when it launched in 2023, feeling like a heartfelt throwback to the classics of yesteryear. With contributions from legendary composer Yasunori Mitsuda (Chrono Cross, Xenogears), the game delivered on its promise of a charming adventure. Now, developer Sabotage Studio is offering players a final treat: a substantial free DLC titled Throes of the Watchmaker.

This isn’t just a small addition. The Throes of the Watchmaker free DLC is packed with content, promising over 8 hours of gameplay. To access this new adventure, you’ll need to have completed the main story of Sea of Stars.
Once unlocked, the DLC introduces a variety of new features to explore:
