Songs of Silence Celebrates One Year with Free Anniversary DLC Giveaway
One year after entering Early Access, Songs of Silence has sold over 100,000 copies worldwide. The game reached full release in November 2024 on PC, PlayStation®5, and Xbox Series X|S, and has quietly built a committed player base along the way.
To mark the anniversary, Chimera Entertainment is releasing a free digital giveaway - a special hero frame available now on Steam, and soon coming to GOG - free for a limited time as a small thank-you to the players who have supported the game from the start.
"We didn’t set out to break records - we set out to make something special” - says Hendrik Lesser, President at Chimera Entertainment and Executive Producer of the project. “The players who joined our journey are the real achievement. This kind of growth proves that word of mouth still matters, and that a good game can still rise on its own terms".
The team has shared a video titled 1 Year Anniversary - "Thank You" from Chimera Entertainment to express their gratitude.
Songs of Silence was created out of passion in 2021 by a close-knit developing team in Munich. While most of the original team has since moved on to other projects - both within Chimera and externally - the game has continued to grow, shaped by a much wider creative and player community: artists, musicians, testers, and fans who helped define what Songs of Silence would become. Above all, honest player feedback played a critical role in guiding the game’s evolution.
With over 1,500 “Mostly Positive” reviews on Steam (78%) and a Metacritic score of 81, Songs of Silence has quietly earned its place as one of 2024’s best-reviewed turn-based strategy games with real-time battles. Steam's rolling review score has hovered above 80% for much of the past year.
