Hope in the City came out on 11 November on Steam, and on the very same day it landed in PC Game Pass and Game Pass Ultimate. Xbox announced it that morning as a day-one Game Pass release, so a lot of people already have it without paying anything extra. If you don't, the question is simple: pay Steam's price, or grab a key for a fraction of it.
A missing-parents mystery told through sketches
It's a narrative mystery from Lofty Sky Entertainment, the studio that made Sky of Tides. You play Hope Song, a 17-year-old who thinks her national exams are the worst thing she has to deal with until she gets home to find the flat turned upside down and both parents gone. She's an artist, and that's how you investigate: you draw what you see and the sketches become your evidence.
Only 12 people have reviewed it on Steam so far and 91% of them liked it. Nice start, but far too few reviews to tell you much yet.
Game Pass covers it, as long as you keep paying
If you already subscribe, there's no reason not to play it there. Just keep in mind that the game stays in Game Pass, not with you. Cancel your subscription and you lose access, and the same thing happens if it ever leaves the catalogue. For a story game you'll probably finish in a few evenings that may not matter. If you'd like to own it, or you'd only be signing up to Game Pass for this one game, the key works out very cheap.
The cheapest way to buy it on PC
Steam has a 10% launch discount: €17.99 down to €16.19 (no fees) until 25 November at 7pm CET. This morning the cheapest Steam Key was at Kinguin for €2.56 (€3.11 with fees) with the coupon NOVGOC10. Fees included, that's 81% less than Steam. You redeem it in your Steam account and it stays in your library like any other purchase.
We've only been tracking it for 16 days, since pre-orders opened, so there's no real price history to compare against yet. In that time we haven't seen it any cheaper than today.
You'll find every store on the Hope in the City key page, and if you'd rather wait for a lower price, set up a price alert and we'll email you when it drops.
And on Xbox?
On console Game Pass Ultimate makes even more sense, because the key options are thin. The Microsoft Store sells the Xbox key for €17.99 (no fees) and that's the one we'd point you to if you want to buy it. The other offers on the Xbox page are a different story: check the format of each one before paying.
Prices checked on the morning of 12 November.
