When Epic has Cloud saves enabled I'll probably pick it up.
Four posts above you, my dude.This is NOT the version from Frogwares, DO NOT BUY IT
From their twitter :
"Frogwares has not created the version of @thesinkingcity that is today on sale on @Steam. We do not recommend the purchase of this version. More news soon."

If you have the platform, you should instead buy it on PS5 which will give the money directly to Frogwares or wait for a proper release from them on Steam
Please don't give Nacon any money for this game. Doesn't matter if the game is up to date or not. They are taking advantage of COVID-19 contract exemption laws in France to keep swindling money that should be going to Frogwares.60 reviews

Claims about early build are false! Game has dlc outfits that came with latest updates, also include Worshippers of the Necronomicon dlc.

Doesn't seem as clear cut as they make it out to be. There is more to this than meets the eye. If they contracted for a steam version of the game why didn't they deliver it? Why does the publisher has to demand it and set ultimatums?Wow, nacon is in some deep shit. Hopefully justice will be served.
Article to go with the video. Includes the pictures from the video in their findings.

Also if the publisher is the rights manager of the game, they can obtain a pirated version without breaking the law as they have distribution rights. Piracy is copying intellectual property without permission. But they gave permission to nacon when they contracted them as their distributor / publisher.
Well, this is clearly a court case now. One party says the contract was terminated the other says it wasn't. Nacon might have thought they can get away with it because big screws small. All they need is a judge who says the contract didn't terminate when Frogwares says it did. Business culture at its best.Read more here:

The attempt to release the game on the platform Utomik by Nacon triggered a termination clause in their contract that went into effect on April 20, 2020. The termination of the contract removed any obligation for a Steam version to be delivered. Nacon tried to use COVID-19 emergency protection laws in France to say the contract could not be terminated. However, on July 17, 2020 a judge rejected Nacon's argument opposing the termination as they put in a force majeure clause that was triggered by the COVID-19 outbreak.
The IP of The Sinking City is wholly owned and controlled by Frogwares. The publishing deal with Nacon was only for advertisement and distribution of the video game across platforms set in the contract. Nacon breached the contract when they initially attempted to distribute the game on a platform that was not included in the contract terms.
