…………………………………
Coinciding with today’s PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted showcase, developer Freehold Games and publisher Kitfox Games are proud to announce that after 15 years of development Caves of Qud launches into 1.0 today for $29.99 on Steam, Itch Io, and GOG! .
“It’s hard to think of Caves of Qud as anything other than our life’s work,” says Jason Grinblat, Founder and Designer at Freehold Games. “We’ve been making it for almost 20 years now, and the success it has already, has felt like a fever dream. It’s so easy to imagine we’re still in Brian’s converted garage working on the game for our three friends. The prospect of it finally arriving at 1.0 is thrilling, dizzying… exhausting. We’re looking forward to Kitfox’s support after launch so we can crawl under our desks and sleep for a few months. Anyway, please play it!”
- Tutorial to teach the basics of the game
- Final quest in the main questline & the end of the game
- Several new music tracks, sound effects, and items
- 40 new achievements

The 1.0 version of Caves of Qud launches alongside the Dromad Deluxe Edition which includes Caves of Qud, the newly enhanced soundtrack, and the Harvest Dawn DLC pack with in-game companions for your character. The pet DLC includes pets that were once exclusive and only available through supporting the studio’s Patreon while the game was in development and one never-before-seen pet.
