3Souls has been an intriguing release on the Wii U eShop, utilising the GamePad for dual-screen gaming and plotting out a three-part release schedule. Though we found faults with part 1 in our review, we appreciated some of the ideas and intent behind the title.
Those interested in taking a punt on it now have some extra incentive. Developer Red Column has confirmed that parts 2 and 3 will now arrive as free updates, with the first half of 2017 being the target window for release. A screen of Part 2 - Nophes and the luminous streets of Sleepless City - is below.
The first part is also going on discount over the festive period - it'll cost €1.80 / £1.60 / $1.95 from 15th December to 8th January.
Are you tempted to give 3Souls a try, or are you an early adopter now discovered that the remaining parts will be free? Let us know in the comments.

Well, I would've paid anyway, but this is even better!
@buildz Me too, but it sounds like it will take long enough to finish the two parts that they expect most people will have moved on from buying Wii U software by the time they're finished, whereas they have a chance at a few sales now to people enticed by the idea of free content; and I imagine they're right. It must be tough trying to get games out as a console winds down, especially since it never got the install base the developers were undoubtedly hoping for when they began development.
I'm tempted to try it now.
I'm now going to give 3Souls a try.
Never heard of it before, but it sounds like my kind of game.
I really go for that esoteric, arty stuff.
Thats cool! I was put off buying a part one of something that might have stung me later down the line. I'll probably buy this while it's cheap now I know it's not having parts 2+3 moved to switch!😋
@CharlieSmile did you ever try stealth inc2? Cool game that whilst it isn't visually that unusual, has a great 'outside of the box' mentality! Also stick it to the man was great and very different to your average game....
@ULTRA-64 I did try Stealth Inc, as part of the Humble Nindie Bundle. It was charming, but I didn't love it.
I did enjoy it, just not enough to finish it, admittedly.
That's nice of them.
Yay! Free updates for me! Take that My Nintendo "rewards".
If I still had the Wii-U I would give it a try it looks very colorful
