Update 1.10 is set to introduce a variety of new features, cinematics, and more to the critically acclaimed puzzle game, Blue Prince. Following its release in April, Blue Prince quickly became one of the highest-rated games of the year, also launching as a day one title on both PS Plus Extra and Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. This made it accessible to a wider audience eager to experience its unique gameplay.
In Blue Prince, players navigate and map out a mysterious mansion with the goal of reaching the elusive Room 46. Every decision made while opening doors shapes the outcome of each run. The game has been well-received for its innovative approach to the roguelike genre, but a bittersweet piece of news accompanies the upcoming update: there are no plans for downloadable content (DLC) beyond the impending climax of 1.10, which will be the last major update.
Despite this limitation, fans can look forward to a substantial enhancement. Update 1.10 promises an interesting array of features, including a new arcade game—likely referring to an arcade machine presently out of order—a house cat addition, new accessibility options, UI improvements, and expanded end-of-day manor descriptions along with house illustrations. Players will also gain HUD customization options and experience new cinematics, improving the narrative aspects of various challenge modes.
While the exact release date for Update 1.10 remains uncertain, smaller bug fix updates will continue to roll out leading up to its launch. Some features, such as accessibility enhancements, may even be available ahead of the main update. After 1.10, the focus will primarily shift to fixing existing bugs.
Given its accolades, Blue Prince is a contender for Game of the Year, which raises anticipation for its future performance. The game is currently playable on PS Plus and Xbox Game Pass, as well as available for standalone purchase, offering ample entertainment for players even before the arrival of the new content.
