- Outcast Tales will be free - 14 September 2026
As in, completely free. No-strings-attached free. No microtransactions, no dark patterns, no catch. This is a game we wanted to make so very much: a funny story-driven roguelite with hard tactical battles where characters would occasionally act out. We poured a lot of work into it, and we love the result. We want you to play it And we don't want a price tag to stand between the game and the people who might enjoy it. These days, games and other media get banned or disappear, AAAAA-games receive AAAAA price tags, exclusives limit reach, and more and more of what we enjoy gets locked behind one service or another. Connecting with others through the things we love can be harder than it should be. So we're making it easier It also feels fitting. After all, Outcast Tales is a story about a bunch of people trying to get out of poverty. We suspect the Hound, Technomancer, Savage, and the rest…
- Outcast Tales Demo Is Out Now! - 10 September 2026
This demo isn't the prologue. It's much larger. Think of it as the full experience, just cut in half. Playtime's roughly doubled: seven new bosses, four times the encounters. And yes, there's a new ending waiting for you on the other side of the desert. We also added a new mechanic. As you travel, every character can unlock one of two secret abilities tied to their class. The whole crew's still here, but the Alchemist we're saving for the full release. And don’t worry about progress! You will be able to carry over your saves from the demo to the main game and continue where you left off. Also, Twitch integration is in, tested, and working well! Outcast Tales is a game where characters don't always follow commands. But when they do... imagine if those orders came from chat? Vote in real time on what happens next, from in-game events to which wasteland the streamer heads to. Chatters can…
- Outcast Tales isn't dead! - 21 August 2026
Greetings, misfits! It has been a while. More than 2 years, in fact. Long enough for some of you to reasonably wonder whether Outcast Tales wandered into the Wasteland and got eaten by something with far too many teeth. It hasn't; it was just stuck in a bit of a release limbo, which is now over. So, good news: we are alive. Better news: and fully ready to go. And we finally have something important to share: Outcast Tales has a new publisher. Meet Inner Pocket!What does this mean for the game? For now, it means our tale continues. We will have more exciting announcements to share with you very soon, and after such a long silence, there is quite a bit to talk about. So don’t wander too far. Follow Outcast Tales on Steam, keep it on your wishlist, and stay tuned for the news. See you soon! t
- Fallen Graces - 1 July 2024
Greetings, Misfits! We know it’s a bit frustrating to see these dark silhouettes under the available characters. https://i.imgur.com/oWXrmRl.png Who are they? What do they do? Why do they do what they do? These are the questions we aim to delve into with this devlog to ease the everlasting itch of seeing unavailable content. Meet the future outcasts! Their past was full of tales, yet now they have nobody but themselves. And even though the remains of society does not care for them, they struggled enough to acquire skills needed for life in the wasteland. These are the people who could save you or mug you. Maybe even both at the same time. Mercenary (Support + Elimination) Ex-guard at Vapor Wave Inc, carrying heavy armor and a Vapor Wave Inc Gun (all rights reserved), capable of both destroying enemies and giving shields to party members. Also his corporate background may get you out of…
- The Other Tales - 30 May 2024
Greetings, Misfits! The release of Outcast Tales is getting closer. We hope the game provides plenty of fun for everyone, with many hours of content to take a crack at. But don’t just sit on your hands simply replaying The First Journey over and over in anticipation, as we will be releasing an update to The First Journey, so you might want to wait before jumping into adventure with fresh eyes. How about you play or watch something else for now instead? And that’s why we’re here today. Together, we are going to take a look at media with obvious similarities to Outcast Tales; some of it might’ve even inspired us in some ways! Hopefully, these stories will tide you over while you’re biting your nails off in wait for the game. Death Road to Canada (2016) It’s a zombie apocalypse and only your dim-witted friends can save you! Explore the cute and quirky side of post-civilizational mayhem, wa…
- A Day's Journey — Part 2 - 29 March 2024
Continuing from last time... One of your team-mates is exhausted after a long trip. Earth to Valery: we literally just camped out! You decide to urge your crewmate to keep going, but this choice comes with a personal check. Here’s where your personality comes into play. https://i.imgur.com/1qw9VXN.png This is definitely a task for Big Buddy. Being a big charming goofball, he gives his big speech and lifts everyone’s spirits. Nice choice! Finally, you arrive at your destination: the mysterious village hungry for blood, perhaps in more ways than one. Seems like beasts and men here mingle together, and everyone is everyone else’s kin. https://i.imgur.com/kDZOVuQ.png Wishing to avoid any sanitary or virological catastrophe that would surely ensue if you stayed in this place for more than 10 minutes, you receive your reward and quickly press on. And I mean, really quickly. …And immediately a…
- A Day's Journey — Part 1 - 25 March 2024
Greetings, misfits! ...Who am I talking to? You three, obviously. You’ve got an important mission today, so let’s get on with it. Time for another day in the Wasteland. Let’s see if it proves fruitful, shall we? Setting out Nobody in their right mind would set out for adventure without assembling a party first. The world of Outcast Tales might seem brimming with total loons, and yet you don’t see any of them traveling alone, do you? Your team member’s personality type will determine their base stats, as well as perks and disadvantages they might receive during dialogue and other specific situations. Do take a look at the attacks available to your character: one of them is a special and somehow it recharges other moves upon use. Do some attacks give respite to our heroes, somehow? Perhaps it’s just like when you take a break from your office job by moonlighting as a nighttime security gu…
