Released in February 2019 to universal praise, Taiwanese horror Devotion only spent a subject of days on Steam ahead it was distant due to a controversial limning of Island president Cardinal Jinping. Since then information technology's had a super limited personal release unavailable outdoorsy Taiwan, and GOG almost released it last yr but then didn't, due to receiving "many messages from gamers."

The good intelligence is that the game is straightaway available digitally, direct from studio Red Cd Games. Devotion is obtainable for $17 for both Windows and Mac, or you can add the soundtrack for a total of $20.68. The studio apartment's previous repulsion Hold is also usable along the site, and information technology's all DRM-free.

The site currently seems a trifle glitchy for those outside of the US—I'm supported in Australia and am getting a 404 mistake when clicking through to purchase, but some users on Resetera have been able to buy out the game.

If you haven't followed the story, Devotion was revue-bombed past Chinese players shortly after release due to an unfavourable reference to China's president. XI Jinping is often compared mockingly to Winnie the Pooh, and the game featured an image of that fictitious character with the word 'moron' in a manner that numerous considered a passabl unambiguous slight. Shortly after the game disappeared, Red Candle's Chinese publisher had its business license revoked.

Information technology's brilliant to witness the game available: hopefully it'll stick.
