11 bit studios is building onThe Alters' success by releasing a new merch line that lets you dress like Jan Technician, the sci-fi game’s lead character. However, the brand the studio has teamed up with is a high-end one, and the items were shown off during Paris Fashion Week, so if you want them, you’re going to have to be prepared to spend a lot of money.
The brand 11 bit has teamed up with is ZA/UM Atelier, and it’s actually not that weird that the two entities have joined forces for a collaboration. ZA/UM Atelier is a fashion house owned by the creators ofDisco Elysium, so it already has a very strong connection with the video game world.
ZA/UM Atelier’s Alters collection is made up of three items - two that make you look like Jan, and a third that’s just a fun accessory based on one of the game’s side characters. The item that is bound to be the most popular with fans of the game is also the one that’s the most expensive.An Ally Corp jacket that’s a replica of the one Jan Technician wears in the game.
Ally Corp is the name of the company that sent Jan to an alien planet and is, therefore, the same company that’s trying to get him home along with a healthy haul of rapidium.

Turns out being a Jan costs a lot of money, no wonder Ally Corp is so invested in them
You can pre-order the Dolly Mission Jan Dolskiexclusively through ZA/UM Atlelier’s websiteright now for 399 euros,which is roughly $467. Like I said, a lot of money, but you’re really paying for a combination of the quality and the brand. A brand that’s reputable enough that its products are showcased during Paris Fashion Week. They were also shown off in an Alters-themed van that traveled around Paris and includedXboxconsoles on which people could play The Alters.
If you want to complete your Jan look, it’s going to cost you even more. There arematching Ally Corp utility pantsthat cost 289 euros ($339)that, like the jacket, have been modeled after the pants Jan wears in the game. The only item in the collection that’s not technically in the game isthe 169 euro ($198) Dolly Baa-Baag. The bag isn’t in the game, but the cloned sheep it’s based on is a sidekick that resides in The Alters' Womb.
All of that means, if you want the full Jan outfit complete with Baa-Baag, you’re going to have to spend more than $1,000. Everything in the collection is made to order and will take three months to find its way to you. I’d recommend sticking to just the one item if you can afford it, or maybe justgrab this unique Alters x Clair Obscur bundlewhich gets you both Game of the Year contenders for less.
