Hey! Hello everyone!
Since the 2025 New Year's Eve, Sordidtale had to disappear from everyone's sight for a while. Due to real-life obligations keeping the core team members occupied, updates have unfortunately slowed to a crawl.
Despite these challenges, we’re still pushing forward. Today, we bring you the update log from the preview release to the present.
We are sorry, but the translation will be delayed
The current Monuments Chapter accounts for 3% of the total game progress. After completing the full version of this chapter, the team will take a break to work on the English localization.
The overall game flow, regional progression, and settings for the full game have been already planned, though art assets are not yet in production.
Gameplay Showcase
Was the months-long wait worth it? The answer lies in this update...
Cutscenes & New UI
Added and remade entire cutscene sequences!
The story will now unfold primarily through *Chara’s* perspective, no spoilers here!
The menu interface has been redesigned to better align with the narrative. Cooler, right? ww
New Areas
Added a new side quest near the park: Construction Site Route!
Players must assist workers in building the Monuments subway station and complete a series of tasks to proceed further.
(Optional, of course!)
*When players explore the construction site warehouse, they need to complete the puzzle, avoid falling rocks, and walk to the end of the warehouse to get the construction materials needed by the workers*
Some NPCs at the Construction Site
Coinciding with this update, the park scene has been overhauled! Revamped park layout, optimized stall/environment textures, and added interactive stalls.
Note: All assets are still in development; final in-game visuals may differ.
Battle Against Barky and Sniffe
Remember the cliffhanger at the end of the preview, where players were ambushed by two dogs?
The full battle is finally here!
These are Toriel’s trained rescue and medical dogs, tasked with guarding the monuments. They harbor a deep hatred for humans (what?!), tryna defeat these good boys!
Future Content Preview
We’re sharing early concept drafts for upcoming maps,
but please note:
All designs are in the concept phase.
Elements are still in prototyping.
Final implementations may change.
In order to keep the gaming experience fresh and fun to explore, we decided to only provide a basic environment to set up the framework.
Stay tuned for more details when the time is right!
Will include:
ULTRA-ULTRA-AND-ULTRA-IMPORTANT lore!
As a supplement to the stories of monuments!
Backstory of the Monuments!
Toriel’s past!
