Latest Steam announcements

  • Major Technology, Graphics & Stability Update - 4 September 2026

    With this update, the entire project has been upgraded to Unreal Engine 5.8. Alongside that upgrade, many technical systems have been reworked, stabilized, and visually improved. Graphics settings and Frame Generation have been significantly improved and stabilized. AMD FSR, AMD Frame Generation, NVIDIA DLSS, and NVIDIA Frame Generation have been better integrated and tested. Frame Generation changes are now applied reliably after restarting the game. A restart notice has been added to the options menu. Intel XeSS has been temporarily removed to avoid stability issues. Hardware Lumen and Hardware Ray Tracing have been reviewed, adjusted, and re-enabled. Graphics presets have been improved and rebalanced. Shadows remain more visible even on lower graphics settings. Lighting and atmosphere have been noticeably enhanced for a stronger and more immersive visual experience. Several areas of…

  • Patch 1.8 Improved Video Performance and Reduced Stuttering - 16 July 2026

    Video playback has been extensively reworked and optimized. Videos now run much more smoothly and cause fewer performance issues. Stuttering and lag should be significantly reduced, especially on systems with limited video memory. Memory usage has also been improved, allowing videos to perform better across a wider range of hardware configurations.

  • Update 1.7 Lighting and Performance Update - 15 July 2026

    I have reworked the lighting inside the house. It is now a bit brighter, so players can see more clearly, but it is not too bright and the atmosphere is still preserved. I also fixed and optimized some lights, which should slightly improve performance.

  • Church Scene & Credits Video Adjusted - 10 July 2026

    Patch Notes – Description: With this update, an important change has been made to the scene that starts when you go up to the church. At that point, a credits-style video begins. Some players thought this meant the game was already over. However, that is not the case — the game continues after this scene. To make sure players do not accidentally open the menu or stop playing at that moment, the ESC key has been disabled during this sequence. This way, players will stay in the game afterward and can continue playing the story until the actual ending. I also want to clarify that the music used in this scene is copyright-free and approved for use together with the game. YouTubers, streamers, and content creators are allowed to use this music in gameplay videos, streams, or Let’s Plays of the game. Thank you for your feedback, and have fun continuing the game!

Steam marketplace comparison data

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $3.99
  • Highest observed: $3.99

The Hollow Road: Prologue's USD price history spans from Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $3.99, the highest is $3.99, and the first visible tracked price is $3.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

The Hollow Road: Prologue's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $3.99, from Sep 23, 2026 through Sep 23, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $3.99. The latest run records $3.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $3.99
  • Current list price: $3.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records The Hollow Road: Prologue at $3.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
