Boulderton Times • Prison News Bulletin

Listen up, inmates!

Word’s just come through the bars — Back to the Dawn Version 1.0 is officially scheduled for release on July 18. And with it? A new yet untold story lurks in the shadows, ready to pounce.

While Thomas quietly works on his escape from the inside, there is yet another person we should keep an eye on. And now, Bob the Panther is about to make his move! This isn’t just another cellblock shuffle, you're looking at a full-blown expansion with five new story acts, six different endings, 22 fresh scenes inside and outside the prison, Bob’s unique take on life behind bars, and a mess of dangerous new gang operations. The stakes are higher. The risks are real. Are you ready to walk in the panther’s shadow?

Now for some news that might just make your day! As a show of gratitude to all early supporters, everyone who owns the game before the 1.0 update drops will get access to the full Supporter Pack — free of charge. Once the full version is live, this pack becomes a paid DLC. So grab a copy of Back to the Dawn now to become an early supporter and get the DLC for free!

Here’s what’s inside:

  • Two Special-Edition Dice Skins: Ace Reporter and Night Owl

  • Cell Decoration Bundle: Includes three cell skins — Golden Wind, Breath of the Forest, and Disco Ball

  • "Infernal Hero" Poster: Increases Reputation by 5 each night when placed in your cell, up to 5 nights

  • "Floodlight" Poster: Increases Rapport with all inmates by 3 each night when placed in your cell, up to 5 nights

  • "Hidden Room" Movie CD-ROM: Playable on computers in the General Building; no skill effects, but provides a unique 4D viewing experience

  • "Zoo Breaker" Audio Cassette: Features the original Early Access main menu music, selectable in the settings

  • Back to the Dawn Concept Art Collection

*Final contents may be subject to change at launch.*

Keep your eyes open and your claws sharp. July 18 is when everything changes in Boulderton Prison. The cells won’t stay quiet for long.
