Watch the latest Sea of Stars trailer for a peek at what’s coming with the free Throes of the Watchmaker DLC for the RPG. Sea of Stars: Throes of the Watchmaker features a new quest that reunites protagonists Zale and Valere for a new challenge. Sea of Stars: Throes of the Watchmaker will be available on PC, Nintendo Switch, PS5 (PlayStation 5), PS4 (PlayStation 4), Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One on May 20, 2025.
The Throes of the Watchmaker DLC explores a fascinating invention by the Watchmaker, the miniature clockwork world of Horloge, a land threatened by a cursed carnival. Zale and Valere must adapt to Horloge’s peculiar rules to fully realize their mastery of Sun and Moon powers, the abilities they’ve refined since the beginning of Sea of Stars’ central journey to stop the Fleshmancer with Eclipse Magic. The DLC is designed around a self-contained progression loop featuring completely new classes, skills and combos to master for Zale, who trades his signature sword to become a skillful juggler, and Valere, who sets aside her trusty staff to dazzle as an acrobat. Throughout Throes of the Watchmaker, the duo fights alongside a new playable party member in Artificer, a mechanized, laser-wielding sharpshot.
