Probably Stolen launched on Steam on October 28, 2026, priced at 1,999 yen with Japanese support, and has sold 200,000 copies. Questing Goose Studio developed it and tinyBuild published it.
Probably Stolen is out. tinyBuild released Questing Goose Studio's cyberpunk pawn shop game on Steam on October 28, 2026, after a run of announcements that moved the project from playtest signup to a dated launch. The release carries a price of 1,999 yen with Japanese support. Launch sales reached 200,000 copies, and the game holds an Overwhelmingly Positive rating from over 900 user reviews, 96 percent of them positive.
The schedule shifted during the run-up. tinyBuild announced at tinyBuild Connect 2026 in September that the game would release October 29 Japan time. By the October 20 demo story the full release was set for October 28, and the October 28 launch story confirms that date. The demo itself already carried an Overwhelmingly Positive rating before launch, helped by an October 19 update that added purchasable fish-farming equipment for raising and selling fish meat.
The game's shape settled around appraisal and negotiation rather than combat. Players work from nine starting scenarios, including gun dealer, chemical dealer, water vendor and stolen goods trader, and each trade demands a different inspection routine: checking tobacco quality, filtering water, modifying firearms. Customers include investigators, revolutionaries and disguised wanted criminals, and accepting, refusing or reporting a deal changes faction relationships. The pawn shop sits on a giant space station divided by wealth and corruption, and the protagonist took out a loan to open it, pays rising rent and aims to buy the shop outright.

tinyBuild released the cyberpunk pawn shop management game Probably Stolen on Steam on October 28. Questing Goose Studio, a Canadian indie developer, developed the game, which costs 1,999 yen (tax included) and supports Japanese. Players run a pawn shop on a giant space station divided by wealth and corruption. The protagonist, formerly a scrap collector, took out a loan for the shop, pays ever-rising rent, and aims to buy the shop outright. From nine starting scenarios (gun dealer, chemical dealer, water vendor, stolen goods trader among them), players procure and sell tobacco, water, weapons, and chemicals, inspecting each product differently: checking tobacco quality, filtering water, modifying firearms. Appraisal of rare items and price negotiation drive profit, and players can buy stolen goods cheaply, sell fakes as luxury items, or trade organs. Investigators, revolutionaries, and disguised wanted criminals turn up as customers, and accepting, refusing, or reporting a deal changes faction relationships. People taken over by runaway AI chips must be detected by behavior and, if needed, dealt with by gun.
