The developer is set to release an updated version of the game and a new DLC, following resolution of a lengthy dispute with former publisher Nacon.
- Frogwares, the developer of The Sinking City, has emerged victorious in a lengthy legal battle with former publisher Nacon, becoming the sole publisher of the game on all platforms.
- The dispute, which began in 2020, involved allegations of withheld royalties, breach of contract, and disputes over IP ownership.
- The game was removed from several platforms during the dispute, and an allegedly pirated version was briefly available on Steam.
- An updated version of the game, including bug fixes and optimizations, is set to be released, but it will not be compatible with old save files.
- Frogwares is also planning to release a new DLC, Merciful Madness, which will only be compatible with the new version of the game.
