Songs of Thieves Statistics
It’s been almost a month since the Thieves arrived in Reverie. Did they cause the trouble we were hoping for? Let's take a look at some stats together!
Steam post image (Updated statistics compared to the presentation video)
The Thieves have been deadly, with a total of 264,273 heroes killed since they began their ambush! The stats show that Elite Assassins are the main culprits behind this massacre, with over 171,928 heroes slain!
But you got your revenge! You’ve been ruthless to Stingy Jack, defeating him over 107,520 times, with an 80% success rate and an average of 30 seconds to beat him!
Since the draw is random, it’s hard to share any statistics with you on Melodies. However, we can tell you that the 3 Melodies that come up most often are:
| Melody | Effect | Randomly Picked |
|---|---|---|
| Merry Men Melody | The locks no longer need keys to be opened; keys now grant 150 Dream Shards each | 71,160 times |
| Sheherazad Melody | Dreams obtained from the Sandman are restocked 1 time after being purchased | 69,547 times |
| Long John Silver Melody | Reveals all Raven Marks on the map | 69,010 times |
Overall (and since we launched the game in Early Access back in 2023), you've played over 300 million hours of Ravenswatch, for a total of more than 40 million runs! That's completely wild!
Monthly Challenge

What's Next?
Next Hero DLC
Our new roadmap kicked off with the Songs of Thieves update last month! We are currently hard at work on the next Hero DLC for an estimated release this fall (accompanied by a free update focused on a Talents overhaul for all Heroes).
We'll share more information as we get closer to the release date. Do you have any guesses already?
Nintendo Switch 2 Edition
Ravenswatch is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 this fall with a free Upgrade Pack for players who already own the game on Switch 1.
Ravenswatch’s Nintendo Switch 2 Edition will also be available on the eShop for players who haven’t got the game already on their Nintendo consoles. In addition to this, we’ll be releasing a limited-edition physical Switch 2 Edition of the game, including many DLCs!
We’ll share more details about what this new version will look like, but you can expect significant performance improvements and a nice visual upgrade.
Stay tuned for more information about Ravenswatch’s Nintendo Switch 2 Edition, coming out this Fall!

After a flying start to the year, the Passtech team is getting ready to enter Summer mode with a well-deserved break!
2026 is already looking bright with the shipping of the Merlin Hero DLC earlier this year, the Songs of Thieves update just last month, and a new Pégase award for the Best Game as a Service for Ravenswatch!
A summer break doesn’t mean we won’t have an eye on what the community is about, so keep sending us your feedback on the game and our latest update! We’ve also got some fun community challenges planned. Feel free to join us on Discord!
We’ll see you soon!
