Kickstarter campaign previously announced side adventure Throes of the Watchmaker
Sea of Starsdevelopers Sabotage Studio have confirmed that they’re already working on DLC for theirwarmly-received love letter to classic RPGs, along with their next standalone game. Helping them along the way is Sea of Stars’ fantastic reception, which has seen the game sell a year’s worth of copies in just one week.
That incredible success comes via Sabotage’s announcement on eX-Twitter that Sea of Stars has shifted more than 250,000 copies since its release on August 29th. That’s apparently more than the studio projected for the game’s first year. The game had already got off to a strong start byselling 100,000 copies on its first day.
Sabotage specifically said that the figure includes “copies sold”, indicating that those playing it for free via Game Pass and PlayStation Plus Extra aren’t counted - meaning the actual number of players could be a good bit higher.

Sea of Stars’ Kickstarter campaign unlocked a “side-adventure DLC” called Throes of The Watchmakeras a stretch goalduring its successful crowdfunding run, promising to deliver the expansion to backers of the campaign for free.
The adventure is described as expanding on the world of Sea of Stars and promises to delve deeper into its connection to the universe of The Messenger. That same universe is implied to continue into Sabotage’s next game (and all its games beyond that), too.
