super cute illustration from chucklefish’s twitter for eastward’s third anniversary !!

The collector's edition for Eastward came with a fun little cd soundtrack and there's like three bonus tracks included. These bonus tracks are absolutely no where online except in-game and in this collector's cd and like, for two of them its not a huge issue for me...

But like this one track is missing and its literally my favorite track in the whole fucking game.

It's just an alternate version of "Strange Quest" that plays during gameplay but it deviates from the main track in such a blissfully emotional way that it just makes me so goddamn happy I can't explain it. The fact it's not online and no one can look it up made me sad and now I have to fix that :'D For reference I'll put the main track below that's in the official digital release, cause it's still really fantastic y'all like this soundtrack is just full of fucking bangers mate aaaaaaaaaaaaa

Eastward DLC ‘Octopia’ launches January 31, 2024 for Switch, PC

Gematsu Source

Eastward downloadable expansion “Octopia” will launch for Switch and PC via Steam on January 31, 2024, publisher Chucklefish and developer Pixpil announced. Chucklefish told Gematsu it did not have any news to share regarding the downloadable content’s availability for the Xbox One version of Eastward.

Here is an overview of the downloadable content, via Chucklefish:

About

Set in a parallel world to Eastward without the dangers of miasma, Eastward: Octopia will see players joining the good life alongside Sam and John, repairing and revitalizing an old neglected farmland in this expansive farm-sim downloadable content. Players will grow crops, tend to livestock, and unleash their culinary creativity using freshly farmed produce to whip up scrumptious new meals, which are then stored in John’s Big Cookbook. There are fishing holes to visit, ghosts to chat to, and a colorful cast of Eastward characters to impress with John’s new recipes. As the farm grows, so does the nearby town, with players able to transform an abandoned fairground into a thriving community, constructing homes and shops, and welcoming in familiar NPCs as new neighbors.

Key Features

Help Sam and John lead a peaceful new life in the countryside – no miasma, no hardships, just happy times in a parallel universe

Revitalise a neglected farmstead; grow crops, rear animals, forage in the wetlands, talk to ghosts, and spend your nights casting your line in the local fishing holes

Construct and upgrade stores and homes to restore Seagull Town into a thriving community

As the town begins to flourish, more familiar faces will flock to the area – some may even stay for good!

Using farm-fresh ingredients and John’s Cookbook, create recipes and whip up delicious culinary delights to share with your neighbours

15-20 hours of pixel perfect gameplay

Playable in English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Simplified and Traditional Chinese

Once purchased, Eastward: Octopia is accessible from Eastward’s start menu, so players can begin their farming adventure straight away, regardless of their progress in the base game.

Eastward is available now for Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, GOG, and Humble Store.

hey does anyone into eastward have a rip of the sam sprite where she's doing the cute scarecrow face? I wanna make a charm of it, but can't find the sprite anywhere online, and pics of it don't have enough detail to make replicating it very easy

Finally got to take mother out, and we reached the end of Eastward. 😭 Kind of sad I'm done with it

I CANT SLEEP EASTWARD HEADS WAKE UP!!!

I’ve just learned that Pixpil also has a studio on Tokyo, and they’re making a new game announced today! “Heart Echoes”, I’m very excited for anything this studio puts out!

From what I’ve gathered on another site that announced it, it’s a card based RPG game, not my type, but I will get it for my love towards Pixpil…
