Hotel Tales Roadmap & Future Updates

Hotel Tales launched on Steam app 3413800 on July 31, 2026. The post-launch roadmap focuses on stability patches, DLC releases, and a future Story DLC promised at the 80k-wishlists milestone in January 2026. This page tracks what shipped, what is next, and where to confirm delivery — there is no public Trello board, so updates come from Steam News, TopHouse Discord/Telegram/X, and lust.so devlogs. Verify dates on the live store widget and the Updates hub.\n\nWe will not invent roadmap items TopHouse has not confirmed. Speculative Trello scrapes and wishlist-milestone wishcasting do not appear here. The August 22 SteamDB build (24786597) is the latest verified retail build as of this page.\n\n## What has shipped since launch\n\n| Date | Item | Type | Wiki page |\n|------|------|------|-----------|\n| July 31, 2026 | Hotel Tales full release | Game | Release Date |\n| July 31, 2026 | Day-one Steam integrations + Achievements fix | Patch | Launch Day Patch |\n| August 3, 2026 | Changelog v1.0.2 | Patch | Patch 1.0.2 |\n| August 4, 2026 | Changelog v1.0.3 | Patch | Patch 1.0.3 |\n| August 8, 2026 | Changelog v1.0.7 | Patch | Patch 1.0.7 |\n| August 10, 2026 | Crossover Bundle announcement | Bundle | Crossover Bundle |\n| August 18, 2026 | Build 24786597 (side dialogues, Gallery unlock, Pino animation) | Patch | Patch 1.1.4 |\n| August 22, 2026 | Build 24786597 update | Patch | Updates |\n\n## What has been promised\n\n### Post-Release Story DLC\n\nTopHouse promised future Story DLC in the 80,000-wishlists milestone post on January 23, 2026. The promise was: story expansion, additional guests, and lore beats the base game calendar only teases. As of August 23, 2026, story DLC has not shipped. Track delivery through Post-Release Story DLC.\n\n### Recurring free patches\n\nTopHouse shipped one patch per week in the first three weeks after launch (v1.0.2, v1.0.3, v1.0.7), then the August 18 build. The cadence suggests TopHouse continues to ship stability patches until story DLC arrives. The most recent verified build is 24786597 (August 22). Watch Steam News for new builds.\n\n### Existing DLC catalog\n\nLive on Steam today:\n- Artbook DLC (app 4082150).\n- Animations Pack (app 4082160).\n- Wallpapers Pack (app 4082170).\n- Skins Pack (app 4082180).\n- Soundtrack DLC (app 4082190).\n- Comics Vol.1 — “The Curse of the Crown” (app 3669340).\n- Comics Vol.2 — “The Bite That Broke Love” (app 4655580).\n- Deluxe Edition (bundle 60135).\n\nSee DLC Catalog and DLC Tier List for value context.\n\n## What to expect next (best-effort)\n\nWe do not invent future patch numbers, but the recent pattern suggests:\n- Continued stability patches until story DLC launches.\n- Possible additional route or guest arcs as part of story DLC.\n- Possible bundle pairings with other TopHouse titles (after the August 10 Crossover Bundle announcement).\n- Likely seasonal sale participation during Steam seasonal sales — the launch-window -10% sale ended around mid-August, and seasonal discounts are normal for TopHouse.\n\n## How to track delivery\n\n1.

Patches address stability, achievement conditions, and DLC additions rather than weekly drops. TopHouse uses Steam News and social channels for roadmap delivery.\n\n## What we will not invent\n\n- Future patch numbers.\n- Future DLC names beyond what is officially announced.\n- A Trello board URL that does not exist.\n- Roadmap contents that have not been confirmed by TopHouse.\n\n## Related wiki sections\n\n- Updates hub, Post-Release Story DLC\n- Patch 1.0.2, Patch 1.0.3, Patch 1.0.7\n- Crossover Bundle, DLC Catalog\n- Hotel Tales Trello Status, Official Links
