A build is one published version of the game's files on a branch. Steam assigns a new build ID every time the developer pushes an update, so this list is the update history of the app. The files inside a build (depot manifests) are only readable with an account that owns the game, which SteamRaw does not have yet, so build contents are not shown.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33065817/8e4bbb8434b933d01e08907d11030c3a8463a2c7.png After our recent PS5/Xbox Series X announcement in which we promised a 120fps/4K update for the console versions of Monster Boy, we received many inquiries from PC players around the world. We'd like to confirm that all upcoming Next-Gen Console features are already built into the PC Version of Monster Boy. As you may remember, it took us more than half a year to work on the PC version of Monster Boy after the console version was released. There was a specific reason for that. The PC Version comes with UHD+ Support, unloc

Here's some information on it https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33065817/237246caf886045805fcbedd6d6b11d8ac069ac8.png Patch #1 includes: Ring Menu:ON setting will get a QoL update.

Hi Everyone, the day has come and the grand adventure begins on your PC! Thank you so much for all the support and patience while we worked on the PC port. With your help we've been able to make the best version of this game yet! PC features include Ultrawide Support and unlocked framerate! Please enjoy! https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33065817/88b48dfd25a7cbd186331ea9bd4a46718553b3db.png
Hi Everyone, tomorrow is the big day and Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom will finally launch on the PC! We're so excited, are you ready?! :o https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33065817/c030accee7137fd9d021d8a37855233f4220abb5.png BTW: If you played the demo you'll be able to continue from where you left! The full version will use the same save game to proceed. We hope you're all enjoying summer and will have a great time in this colorful and sunny Metroidvania! :)
Dear friends and fans, we're wishing you a wonderful week-end! It's the last one without Monster Boy in your Steam Library. Let's celebrate the upcoming launch with a re-arranged game tune from Banjo Guy Ollie who has a guest appearance in the game! ^_^ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i7XNpQEtik https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33065817/79b887aa750bde649fb57dda770dfbb5db664034.png See y'all next week!
Hi Everyone, we just finished our QA and the build is ready for launch next week. Just 8 days left now - thanks again for your patience! The demo was also updated to the latest version. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/33065817/3dbd0d224110773b37e93213e02ac9ea7fbec97d.png A few words about the delayed PC release: We think it was totally worth the extra effort to make it more than just a simple port. The PC has wonderful features and great displays that are optimal for a lag-free super enjoyable Metroidvania game. We just wanted to give it the time so we can de
Dear Friends and Fans, we're so close to launch - just 10 more days!! OMG! :o Here's a little news tidbit as the trading card question came up today: YES we'll have them! :) cheers! Still 10 days... but soon 9 days..
Hi Everyone, the manual is available for download on the product page, feel free to grab it in preparation of your grand adventure! We used the PS4 physical release manual and replaced PlayStation buttons with the ones from Xbox Controllers. Actually this makes the Steam version of the manual quite unique! Since we didn’t have a physical release on Xbox, we never made a manual for it. ^_^ Please enjoy
Hi Everyone, we're preparing the launch of the game! The release candidate build went into final QA testing yesterday! We're also going to update the demo once more, just to have parity between that and the release version. We had to fix an audio-related bug that was caused by resuming the computer from standby with the game running in background. It wasn't a big issue but we wanted to make sure that known issues are fixed as much as possible before the release. As for the price, as promised we set a lower price than on console. The game will launch at $29.99 / €29.99 and we'll have a 10% Laun
Hi Everyone, we just released the final demo update! This version represents our July 25 full release in regard of compatibility and game/video settings. Please check it out! If the demo runs well on your machine, you'll be fine with the full version too. Just 3 more weeks until launch now! Please recommend the game to your friends and wishlist it
Hello Everyone, we hope you're all enjoying summer! BTW: Please play Bloodstained! ^_^ Today we'd like to inform you about a new update of the demo, addressing the crash bugs that some users encountered. It was caused by non-Ascii character Windows User names and should now be fixed. Please update the demo and try if it works now. As always your feedback is very welcome! ..just a few more weeks until the PC release of Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom ..(finally!)
Hi Everyone, there's a new demo build available for everyone. Please check it out in case you encountered problems with the initial demo release. Here's a quick info about changes/updates: - The sound effects should now play normally when using a multichannel setup - Ultrawide has a dynamic HUD setting to align the HUD with the screen edges. - DualCore Support - Crashlogs will be written locally so you can send them to us. - Dialogue Text Size can be increased in the options. - Improved high framerate play - Fixed a bug on Ultrawide screens that caused Shop Items to disappear. - Framerate Limi
Developer Game Atelier's superb Wonder Boy 3 spiritual successor Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom is finally heading to PC, with a Steam and GOG release now confirmed for 25th July. Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom (not to be confused with Lizardcube's sublime Wonder Boy 3 remake, Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap) initially launched on Switch, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 late last year, where it was met with immediate acclaim - so confirmation of a PC release date, although long-promised, is well overdue. And if you've even a passing interest in 2D platformers, Monster Boy is well worth your
