Lake: Season's Greetings Coming to PC, Xbox, and PlayStation Next Week - Lake on Sale to Celebrate

We received the following communication from WhiteThorn Games about the upcoming Lake DLC.

Get your snow boots and a hot cup of cocoa ready because Lake's holiday-themed prequel, Lake: Season's Greetings, is right around the corner! Get ready to deliver the holiday cheer as Thomas Weiss in this cozy new chapter to the popular mail carrier sim! Lake: Season's Greetings arrives in your mailbox on November 15 on PC via Steam, Xbox, and PlayStation, right in time for the holidays!
 
To prepare you for the DLC's release, you'll be able to pick up Lake at a discount on
Steam and the Epic Games Store! From November 15 through 21, the base game will be available at a 50% discount. For Xbox Game Pass holders, the Lake: Special Delivery bundle (includes the base game and Season's Greetings DLC) is 40% off! But stay tuned — we'll have some more surprises at launch!

Make this a December to remember! Lake: Season's Greetings takes place during 1985's holiday season, one year before the original Lake game. Players take on the role of Thomas Weiss, an amiable mail carrier and father to Lake's protagonist, Meredith Weiss. Changing the perspective from Meredith to her father, players will gain an understanding of the Weiss family dynamics and an insight into a snow-covered Providence Oaks from a long-time resident's point of view. Not only will players learn more about the familiar faces they have grown to love from the main story, but Season's Greetings introduces five completely new characters to the town of Providence Oaks, each with their very own storylines. The DLC will also provide more background to some unanswered questions that were teased in Lake. Following the ideals of the base game, Season's Greetings will continue to focus on slice-of-life themes and relaxing vibes, this time embedded in a comfy holiday setting. So curl up with some hot cocoa and a copy of Season's Greetings because it isn't Christmas until Thomas Weiss has delivered the holiday cheer.

Key features of Lake: Season's Greetings include:

  • Travel back to 1985 and discover what Providence Oaks was like before Meredith through her father's eyes during the winter holiday.

  • Enjoy a variety of after-work activities that include hanging with friends, staying in for a night of television, and going out like it's 1985.

  • Experience a branching story that doesn't shy away from slice-of-life themes. Like life, there are no right or wrong answers.

Lake is available now on PC via Steam, or Epic Games Store, on PlayStation 4 and 5, and Xbox One and Series X|S for $19.99 USD. Lake: Season's Greetings will be released on most of these platforms on November 15, 2023, for $9.99 USD.

So hey, I think this is really cool. Lake came out in September 2021. At the time, it got a bunch of positive reviews for its chill mail delivery game experience. I’m so happy to see there will be more. I’ve yet to play it, but I might use Lake being 50% off as the perfect opportunity to pick it up. As for the DLC, it looks like the perfect way to get in the holiday spirit this year.
