The world of To the Moon is expanding, and it’s time to welcome two new emotional journeys into our gaming lives. The Xbox Series and Switch versions of Sigmund Minisode 1 (Holiday Special) and Sigmund Minisode 2 (Holiday Special) are officially available, bringing a touch of heartfelt storytelling to these platforms. If you’re familiar with the original game, you know that this isn’t just about playing. It’s about feeling.
Originally a free DLC for PC players, these minisodes have transitioned into standalone experiences on consoles. It’s a bittersweet moment when you realize that while they are no longer free, they promise to deliver those same poignant narratives that tug at your heartstrings. Launched on December 19, 2024, for PlayStation 5, it’s clear that Serenity Forge and Freebird Games are keen to share their emotional depth beyond just one platform.
The price points are pretty approachable: $2.99 for the first minisode on PlayStation 5 and $1.99 for its counterpart on Switch. However, Xbox players must grab them in a bundle for $5.99. It’s not too shabby if you ask me! It’s like buying an indie film ticket that promises to leave you reflecting long after the credits roll.
