The agency is open for business once again, and there’s never been a better time to clock in.
Kaizen Game Works has just unleashed the Prepare to Grind Update for its critically acclaimed crime drama meets mascot simulator, Promise Mascot Agency.
This huge, free drop of new content is available right now for all players on Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
Making an Almost Perfect Game Even Better
This new update adds a host of fan-requested features, new challenges, and some brilliant indie game collaborations to what is already one of the most unique and celebrated games of the year.
We were completely charmed by Promise Mascot Agency when it launched a few months ago. In our 4.5/5 review, we called it an experience that “ticks a lot of boxes by being original, fun, and at times, quite weird.” We celebrated how “the mascot management is at the core of the game, but it’s the additional free-roam activities that flesh it out to deliver the most enjoyment.“
The new Prepare to Grind Update leans heavily into that free-roam fun, adding even more for players to do in its wonderfully strange world, and best of all, it’s completely free.
What’s New in the ‘Prepare to Grind’ Update?
This substantial new update is packed with new features, quality-of-life improvements, and brand-new content to collect.
The biggest new gameplay addition is an upgrade to your trusty kei truck. You can now grind along rails in your vehicle, opening up new ways to navigate the world in style. On top of that, the highly requested ability to skip music tracks has also been added.
For those who have already mastered the art of mascot management, this update adds fresh challenges with new difficulty modes and time trials. And for those who love a bit of flair, you can now deck out everyone’s favourite homicidal friend, Pinky, with a range of new nail designs.
An Indie All-Star Crossover
If you love collecting more than just mascots, a series of new collectible hero cards have been added to the game, featuring collaborations with several other fantastic indie titles:
- Tanuki Pon’s Summer
- Unbeatable
- Sorry We’re Closed
- Dunk Dunk
- And Kaizen Game Work’s own previous hit, Paradise Killer
An Indie Darling’s Continued Success
Since its launch, Promise Mascot Agency has been a spectacular success, racking up a 97% positive rating on Steam and glowing reviews across the board. To celebrate the launch of this new update, the game is also currently available with its biggest ever discount of 25% off, making it the perfect time for new players to jump in.
The new content is available from today across all platforms (Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, PC) and can be accessed whether you’re starting a new game, in the middle of a playthrough, or have already completed the story.
There’s a whole new world of weird and wonderful waiting for you.
