Hello everyone,
Hope you're doing well! As we told you a while ago, the team is working on the upcoming free DLC we promised. We're finally reaching the final phases before we ready to publish it. However, as always, we're looking to get as most feedback as we can from Dead Cells' players. And, well, since there is a lot of new content, we need your help now more than ever to tweak, hunt the bugs, and balance it.
The new content has been built to give more depth to Dead Cells' end game. Hence, one of the new biome and its boss won't be accessible before you beat the game a first time. A fifth boss cell is now available... I will let you deduce where to find the second boss and biome are hiding themselves!
We're also improving the end game by making the Dead Cells' experience in Boss Cells 1 to 5 more unique and interesting. New ennemies and new rewards (skins and weapons) are awaiting the braves ready to rise to the gigantic* challenge.
The patch notes are available here.
Let us know what you think in the comment down there, or, even better, on Reddit where we're going to open a specific thread dedicated to the discussion (pinned).
How do I get in?
To access the ALPHA follow these instructions:
Go to your Steam game library.
Right click on Dead Cells and click "properties".
Select the tab "Betas".
In the first dropdown box select "Alpha - Not for the faint hearted".
Click close and wait for the upload to finish downloading.
Start playing.
WARNING:
In this version of the game you will lose your save every time we push an update, which could be pretty often! This will not impact your old save files. You will be able to import the old ones in to this version, but not export them. This way you can play with everything you've already unlocked, without fear of frying your saves.
If you are still worried about losing you save then feel free to head over here: "steam\userdata\\588650\remote" and copy the files somewhere safe.
There is a special slot only for saves from this version that will appear.
We hope to read you soon!
The MT team
