The DLC revolves around the mysterious genius inventor "The Clockmaker" who appears in the main storyline. He is the designer of the clock tower castle and also invented the board game "Roulette" that is popular in the world of "Sea of ​​Stars". In "The Clockmaker's Pain", players will explore his most amazing work - the miniature clock world "Clock Town", a strange place that is being swallowed by the cursed carnival. Valere and Zale must grow up in the unique rules of Clock Town, and then unleash the true potential of their sun and moon power, which is the "solstice magic" that they constantly honed when fighting against the flesh warlock in the original story.



As an additional adventure content after the main story, "The Clockmaker's Pain" has an independent character development system, including new professions, skills and combo mechanisms. In this DLC, Zalai will abandon his sword and become a throwing expert; Valerie will put down her staff and transform into a smart acrobat. The two will also fight side by side with a new playable character, the mechanical shooter "Mechanic", who is covered in a metal shell and is good at high-precision laser shooting.



"The Watchmaker's Pain" will bring many new areas, puzzles and enemies that have never been seen before. The story is completely independent of the main "Sea of ​​Stars", with rich content and compact experience. The plot performance budget of this DLC is comparable to that of the main game, ensuring the wonderful presentation of key plots and presenting players with a new adventure of about 8 hours. Whether it is a wonderful sequel after the main line is cleared, or to find a new reason to start the second round of the game, "The Watchmaker's Pain" is an excellent choice and an ideal opportunity for new players to get into "Sea of ​​Stars".


This DLC will also include a new soundtrack created by Eric W. Brown, the chief composer of Sea of ​​Stars, and specially invited Yasunori Mitsuda, the composer of Chrono Trigger, to collaborate on some original music.

It is now available on PC, Switch, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One, priced at $34.99.
