‘Slay The Princess’ Celebrates 100K Copies Sold With New Accolades Trailer [Watch]
Black Tabby Games has announced that their psychological horror visual novel title Slay The Princess has earned a cool 100,000 copies sold since its launch back in October, as well as achieving a 91 on Metacritic with the Metacritic Must Play badge. To celebrate the milestone, the developer has released a new accolades trailer, which just so happens to feature a quote from Aaron’s review of Slay The Princess.
Per the press release, Slay the Princess becomes one of only a few visual novels to reach the 100,000 sales mark.
“It’s been absolutely incredible to see such a positive reception from fans, critics, creators, and everyone,” says Tony Howard-Arias, Lead Writer at Black Tabby Games. “People making time to not just play our game but to replay it, share their experiences, create art, and write fan fiction in a world where so many games demand your attention has been a real honor.”
Slay The Princess is now available on PC via Steam for $17.99, alongside a $9.99 Supporter’s Pack containing the OST. And if you’re keen on more of Black Tabby Games’ titles, there’s also a bundled discount available with their Early Access title, Scarlet Hollow.
In Slay The Princess, you find yourself in the middle of a densely-populated forest, with the trees parting only for you to make way to a small hill adorned by a lone cabin. The Narrator asks you the simple eponymous instruction: enter the cabin and slay the princess. If you don’t, the world ends. At least, that’s what you’re told.
Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.
Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”
Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.
And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
