Devolver Digital's announcement on August 8 confirms that Look Outside, the pixel-art cosmic horror RPG by Francis Coulombe, has sold over 500,000 copies. The game has been on PC via Steam since March 2025. The sale, running until August 15, drops the price from 1,200 yen to 720 yen.
Look Outside is set on an Earth where looking out a window transforms people into monsters. Players control Sam, an unemployed protagonist who must survive in an apartment building, fighting or befriending mutated residents, gathering supplies, and uncovering why the world changed. Each action advances time, and a 15-day limit shifts the fates of residents and the building itself, leading to multiple endings based on player choices.
