Zero Parades, The Successor To Disco Elysium, Has Been Confirmed For Switch 2
ZA/UM's next CRPG. ZA/UM, the controversial studio behind Disco Elysium: The Final Cut, has confirmed that its next CRPG will launch on Switch 2 on 3rd November 2026. Zero Parades: Director's Cut is the studio's second outing and was released on PC in May of this year. The Director's Cut, which launched as a free update for owners on PC earlier this month, features several key improvements, including re-recorded English voiceover and a revamped inventory system.

Escape a roundabout as a stoned tuk-tuk driver in Zero Parades' free Director’s Cut update, which will add about 40,000 new words to the RPG next month
As many reservations as I had going into ZA/UM's Zero Parades: For Dead Spies earlier this year, what with all of the drama and upset that's surrounded the studio since Disco Elysium's release, it pleasantly surprised me. I don't think I rate it more highly than its brilliant predecessor, but it offered a throughly fun time that felt like it was riding the coattails of Disco, but not in a way that left it any way unable to create its own magic. Now, it's getting a free Director's Cut update to c
Zero Parades Lands on PS5 in Director's Cut Form on 3rd November
Extra story, dialogue, modes, and more. ZA/UM has shared the PS5 version of Zero Parades: For Dead Spies will launch on 3rd November 2026 as an expanded Director's Cut containing new content, dialogue, modes, and additional improvements. This will build on the well-received original version, which in itself was one of many spiritual successors to Disco Elysium. Of course, ZA/UM did develop that game, but the team that made Zero Parades is essentially unrecognisable from that of Disco Elysium. A

ZA/UM are set for more layoffs only two months after launching Zero Parades: For Dead Spies
It's been almost two months since ZA/UM released their second game Zero Parades: For Dead Spies (and obviously first after years of controversy. Unfortunately for workers at the studio, the game does not appear to have sold well enough, as more than 30 devs are being laid off or are at-risk of being laid off.

Dang, I can't hang with the Wang in Zero Parades, so ZA/UM's thought violation gun won't stop going bang
I’ve been a super sorry spy again. THAT’S AGAINST YOUR AGREEMENT, Mr Wang shouts in text form, subsequently yanking away the bonuses afforded to me by my decision to adopt the Wang way. I didn’t think working the Wang into my thang would be this stressful, to be honest.

ZA/UM's espionage RPG doesn't quite sell its spy story.
Round Up: Disco Elysium's Controversial 'Sequel' Met with Rave Reviews
Zero Parades: For Dead Spies reviews are in. Zero Parades: For Dead Spies is out this week on PC, and so critic reviews are starting to trickle in. It was always going to be interesting to see how this one's received, since it's technically the successor to Disco Elysium — one of the most highly regarded RPGs of the last decade or so.

Zero Parades: For Dead Spies review
One of the first things I learn about myself in Zero Parades is that I'm a fuck-up – an omnishambling bad omen with cropped hair and unfair cheekbones. Before I was put on ice, I was supposedly one hell of a spy. But that was then, and this is now. The veteran spy fallen from grace is not a new story, but in careful hands, it is almost always a great one. There are so many tiny little things that go right and wrong for an agent in the field: an indifferent tsunami of luck and skill and wildcard
Zero Parades: For Dead Spies Review – Cascading Choices
Following up a game as lauded as Disco Elysium would be an unenviable task for any developer, but especially one as fractured as ZA/UM. With many of the key creative minds behind the detective RPG separated from the studio following an ugly, and very public, legal dispute, it's up to those left behind to pick up the pieces. That's a lot of baggage to carry going into a brand-new, albeit familiar, game, so it's not surprising how ZA/UM has tried to distance itself from too many comparisons with i
Zero Parades: For Dead Spies is both bootleg Disco Elysium and a spirited interrogation of fake culture in all its guises
For many players, Zero Parades: For Dead Spies will never be anything other than a seedy clone of ZA/UM's reputation-making Disco Elysium – a soul-sucking forgery of a doomy leftist masterpiece, whose original lead writers and designers have been ousted by scheming executives. It's appropriate then, that, Zero Parades proves obsessed with clones, forgeries, bootlegs, and the ways in which these entities can be wielded for erasure and displacement. Its opening third is a comical squabble over not
Disco Elysium dev's highly-anticipated follow-up, Zero Parades: For Dead Spies, has things to say about our nostalgia
The Bootleg Bazaar in Portofiro is a chimera of ex-Soviet bloc organisms that have nestled together in a robust show of scrappy, second-hand capitalism at its finest. It's an entity I have mostly understood from movies and television and books, and a fairly problematic Russian neighbour in college who enjoyed throwing knives at his closet door for fun (I believe he is now married and owns a paper factory).
Disco Elysium Follow-Up Remains Both Promising and Controversial in Latest PS5 Glimpse
Meet the cast ahead of release. ZA/UM will never be able to shake the controversies surrounding its internal leadership and who's actually making Zero Parades: For Dead Spies, following the fallout of its critically-acclaimed Disco Elysium's release. Therefore, it will hope the spiritual successor does the talking for it when it initially launches for PC and then comes to PS5 later this year, with an experience extremely reminiscent of Disco Elysium. More details have been shared today on the Pl
