Developer Bytten Studio has officially launched the version 1.8 “Sunshine Update” for Cassette Beasts, available now on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC and Linux via Steam.

This patch features a new questline, new monsters, and a customized gliding wing. Specifically, it comes with a new playable narrative for Sunny, a fan-favorite character in the base game. With that said, players can only gain access to it if they have completed the main story.

An optional “Wings Pack” DLC worth $2.99 USD can also be purchased if you want eight more fashion wing designs to choose from. See all the details and screenshots below.

Cassette Beasts – Sunshine Update Overview

Sunny days are upon us!

Beloved NPC, Sunny, will now have a new storyline! Following the main story, players will have the opportunity to partner with Sunny for the first time as she embarks on a new questline to uncover details about her past as one of New Wirral’s peculiar Landkeepers.

As a note, Sunny’s content is only available to those who have finished the main story of Cassette Beasts!

New Monsters!

Sunny’s questline introduces a few new monsters, including her signature tape form, Pawper! This large beast-type creature resembles a bear costume… but is there a deeper mystery under its skin? Best not to think about it too long…. Pawper’s signature move, “Bear Hug,” transfers negative status effects to the target, making them quite the tactical partner.

There are two other monsters but…we’ll let you find them in game 😉

Soar through the air with brand new wings!

This update allows you to personalize your gliding wings after recording specific monsters. If you’re looking for even more wing options to enhance your adventures, the new premium Wings Pack DLC offers an array of themed wings to further customize your character.
