    Kentucky Route Zero's fourth chapter is really, actually, truly here. Seriously. Following a two-year-plus gap since the adventure game's third installment, you can finally grab the penultimate episode from your digital distributor of choice (including Steam, GOG, Humble Store and itch.io). "This has been a challenging process for us, but we're excited about the work and [are] eager to share it with you," developer Cardboard Computer writes.

    Where the hell is 'Kentucky Route Zero'?

    There's an important question at the heart of Kentucky Route Zero. As Conway and his dog drive through dusty, humid towns collecting strange friends and glowing-yellow leg bones, a single question haunts their tire tracks: Where the hell is Kentucky Route Zero? Not in geographic terms -- Conway does eventually find the highway -- but on a grand scale, where is it actually located? On another plane? In another galaxy? When you're on Route Zero, where are you, really? The game is supposed to comprise five acts, but it's been nearly two years since the third installment dropped. Originally, developer Cardboard Computer pledged to launch one new act every three months, with the final episode scheduled to land in Oct. 2014. So fans are asking the question again, this time literally: Where the hell is Kentucky Route Zero -- specifically, its fourth act? "It's so close. Oh my god, it's so close."
