23 July 2024

Hello players!

After many delays, we are happy to share the news that TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY Expansion Pass DLC for THE LONG DARK has finally been approved by Nintendo for launch on the Switch. TALES will be available for purchase at the eShop starting August 1st!

The first phase of TALES release on Switch will be Parts One to Four, with Part Five coming ASAP (as it has already been released on the other platforms) and Part Six coming some time this Fall.

Even if you don’t purchase TALES, all Switch players will still get access to the free updates to the base Survival Mode that are included with Parts One to Four, as well as the remaining free updates coming in Parts Five and Six.

Along with the launch of TALES, this release will update the base Story and Survival games to match the other platforms, so you will notice a new configuration of the Main Menu. This release will update THE LONG DARK on Switch to the same updated codebase and content framework as exists on all our other platforms, so please note all Switch players will receive an update even if they don’t purchase the TALES DLC.

If you run into any issues with TALES or the Switch version of the game, post-update, please contact our Support team at www.hinterlandgames.com/support.

Thanks for your patience as we finally put TALES FROM THE FAR TERRITORY into your hands. We hope you enjoy this significant expansion to Survival Mode.

Keep your eyes on the eShop on August 1st!

NOTE: Previous Survival game saves will be wiped with this update. WINTERMUTE (Story Mode) saves will not be impacted.
