As promised in Spring by the developers, the Final Cut of Dreamfall Chapters has now been released for Linux on Steam and GOG.

This 8.2 GB huge and free update for all owners of Dreamfall Chapters adds an update of the Unity Engine, new character models, a in-game map, a new soundtrack and an improved voice-over localisation for german and french to the game.

Also some playable deleted scenes have been unlocked and a lot of bugs have been fixed. The game is currently available on Steam and GOG with a 40% discount.

At the start of the year we brought you the news that Dreamfall Chapters' "Final Cut" update would arrive this March—'March' being a word that here means, apparently, 'July'. OK so it's a bit late, but you can now play Red Thread Games' five-part episodic adventure with enhanced art and sound effects, improved performance, and a few other pleasant additions, and that's not bad at all for a free update, now is it?

The Final Cut update is detailed here on Steam, but it's also available on GOG, and on both stores you can currently buy the whole adventure with a sizable 40% discount. The free patch adds playable deleted scenes, an in-game map, a concept art gallery, and a character library, but also the following stuff:

Improved art and sound, including new and revised character models, improved lighting, an expanded soundtrack, remastered voice-overs and reworked sound effects
Improved performance
Improved controller support
Improved German and French localisation
Support for save slots
Updated Unity game engine
A HUGE amount of smaller bug fixes (seriously, the list is too long to post here)
