  • The release of a major game update to version 3.0 - 28 October 2024

    In this update, the endings of the game were primarily affected, namely, 2 endings were cut and one was left, now the game focuses on one ending, on which more emphasis is placed, without forcing the player to replay the game in order to see other options that were of lower quality and did not give the proper effect of the ending of the game. The 2nd location of the game, where the game's plot unfolds, has also been completely redesigned. Even if this level has become more linear, but it has also become more understandable and holistic, now there will be no feeling of being lost and not knowing where to go and what to do, now it is more and more clear and the situation when you get lost will not arise during the passage, this is a completely new location, even if it sections from the old one are used, but they have also been refined and improved, this level feels and is played in a comp…

    I welcome everyone reading this news, as well as everyone who added the game to the wishlist, I would like to thank all those who are not indifferent for their support and attention! About the release date, the situation in general and plans. Unfortunately, these are very difficult times for developers from Russia and I can't say how soon the game will be released, but I can say for sure that it is ready and all the time that has appeared due to the current situations with the bank and directly with Steam will be spent usefully on refining and potentially expanding the game the process and plot of the game.

About this game

The Dark Tones: Loss — tells and shows you tragic events inspired by real life and people's stories. Attention to detail and surroundings All game levels were created from scratch in order to provide the player with a unique environment, rather than the same type of locations purchased on marketplaces and reused in other games. All the contents of the game were arranged manually with great attention to detail and detail, in order to create a lively, filled and interesting game world. The Dark Tones: Loss is an atmospheric story-oriented work The short duration of the passage is compensated by the saturation and variety of events in the passage. Here you will not find the same type of riddles, hours of searching for objects or aimless wandering around locations. All the efforts, resources and time spent on the development of this work were aimed at creating an interesting, vivid and meaningful work in which the duration of the gameplay plays a secondary role. History and the surrounding world filled with images and metaphors Here you will not have to escape from zombies, run from ridiculous ghosts and crazed maniacs. Living the life of the main character, you will encounter something much more terrible and frightening. But, everything that is happening has a much deeper meaning than it might seem at first glance. You have to get to the truth and put the puzzle together. An adult story about choice, despair and the human soul The plot of the game was not invented at random, it contains both personal experience and the experience of other people's stories. The game does not aim to scare you with harsh sounds, monsters or ghosts, even if it also has that, but it encourages you to think about something more important and valuable that can really scare, but not reflexively, but mentally and emotionally, because it's not strange or scary things that really scare, things scare ordinary, real and real, which surround us every day, but which at the same time begin to look strange and therefore become scary. Modern game engine and technology The game is made on the latest version of the Unreal Engine 5 using a realistic Lumen lighting system. The world of dark tones…

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Oct 5, 2026 to Oct 5, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $0.89
  • Highest observed: $0.89

The Dark Tones: Loss's USD price history spans from Oct 5, 2026 to Oct 5, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $0.89, the highest is $0.89, and the first visible tracked price is $0.89. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 1
  • Discounted days: 1 day
  • Deepest markdown: -85%
  • Latest sale window: Oct 5, 2026 to Oct 5, 2026

SteamPulse has grouped rows carrying discount metadata into 1 recorded discount window, covering 1 calendar day and 1 discounted snapshot. The deepest recorded markdown is -85%, with a lowest recorded final price of $0.89 during rows named Steam sale. The latest recorded window starts Oct 5, 2026 and ends Oct 5, 2026, spanning 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking. Window boundaries follow the available snapshots, so gaps in coverage can make an actual sale shorter or longer than the recorded span.

Recorded sale names include Steam sale. The table reports the observed markdown, final price, snapshot dates, and any sale name supplied with the row. It can show whether similar discounts recur in the retained record, but it does not infer publisher intent, demand, or the reason a price changed.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $0.89, from Oct 5, 2026 through Oct 5, 2026. The latest run records $0.89 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking with a listed discount from $5.99. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $0.89
  • Current list price: $5.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records The Dark Tones: Loss at $0.89 in USD, with a listed base price of $5.99 and a -85% markdown. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
