Tabby Black Games also announced that an EU-friendly version of the Collector’s Edition is now available, which costs less, especially for fans living in or closer to Europe. They also mentioned that this edition is a little different as “it swaps out the statue and the lenticular for a poster,” but this change made this version more affordable. For comparison, the non-EU version is priced at $199.99 USD, while the EU version is €79.99 EUR or $88.46 USD. You can choose from these versions depending on your preferences.
Celebrating One Year Anniversary
As if the Pristine Cut update is enough, the developers are also streaming on their Twitch channel. Watch Abby, the artist behind Slay the Princess’ art style, draw the Princesses live! However, the additional princesses from the Pristine Cut version are excluded from the list. They will also chat with you and explain their work on this game, and they’ll play one path from the expanded Pristine Cut version. If you want to spend more time with the developers, make sure to visit their Twitch channel!

Damsel In Distress Or Devil In Disguise?
Slay the Princess is a horror visual novel game where you will face the choice of slaying or saving her from imprisonment. However, these choices are not clear-cut. You have to consider each action and its possible consequences. The Narrator tells you that the Princess will charm, lie, and promise you the world to thwart your mission. However, is that all there is to it?
The game is fully voice-acted and was hand-drawn by Abby Howard. Slay the Princess' unique art style will surely catch your attention. It also features a visual novel gameplay style, where you talk with the Princess and interact with various items. Though this game mechanic looks quite simple, your actions in the game will significantly alter its outcome. So prepare yourself before having an audience with the Princess.
