The Rise of the Golden Idol – the standalone sequel to 2022’s widely acclaimed deductive adventure The Case of the Golden Idol – launches tomorrow, 12th November (14th November on Switch, due to an “unexpected delay”), and ahead of its arrival, developer Color Gray Games has shared a post-launch roadmap promising four bits of paid DLC.
Color Gray Games notes there’s also a permanent stacking discount for The Case of the Golden Idol owners, meaning they’ll be able to get the follow-up and all future content “even cheaper”.
As detailed by the studio on Steam, The Rise of the Golden Idol will receive four self-contained DLC Investigations throughout 2025, each telling a standalone story featuring “at least” four cases.
The Rise of the Golden Idol, if you’re unfamiliar, takes the murder-mystery sleuthing formula of its predecessor and shifts it from the 18th Century to the 1970s.
