Hey everyone,
Surprise! A new update is available ːdcshockedː
Well maybe it's not so much of a surprise if you've been following our social media for the last 2 weeks...
Anyway, this time around we're stoked to introduce weapons, skills and skins from some fellow indie studios, who kindly let us add a little taste of their games to Dead Cells!
How do you get this free stuff?
You'll find a book of clues in the opening area - figure out the riddles within and complete the challenges to unlock fresh outfits!
You'll also find lore rooms dotted around the place, hiding bizarre and powerful weapons from other worlds...
If you want the full details of everything right now then check out the patchnotes and the little summary below, if you want to keep some mystery then download the update and get into it!
Hollow Knight
The Knight was a bit too shy to show themself, so you won't be seeing them running around the island, but their trusty nail is here :)
The Pure Nail can attack upward and downward. Attacking downward while airborne causes you to bounce on your enemies, dealing critical damage.
Hyper Light Drifter
Laser guns are finally in the game! The Drifter wields their trusty energy sword/gun combo, ready to wordlessly slay more monsters.
The Hyper Light Gun marks its targets while also dealing damage. The Sword deals critical damage to the marked targets, increasing with the number of gun marks on the target. Sword hits also recharge the gun's ammo, which doesn't recharge passively.
Blasphemous
The Penitent One is here. Mea Culpa...
Crush the Face Flask on your forehead, dealing low damage to yourself and transforming 35 percent of your missing health into recovery.
Guacamelee
The luchador Juan arrives, with a feathery surprise up his non-existent sleeve...
Channel your chicken spirit with the Pollo Power, turning into a chicken for a few seconds while firing several explosive eggs around you.
Skul: The Hero Slayer
Tear your way through hordes of enemies as Skul, slaying mobs with a trusty bone club.
Smash enemies with a bone club. Hitting with the second attack enables a whirlwind attack that deals critical damage.
Curse of the Dead Gods
That's right, mutton chops are in Dead Cells, we have now accomplished everything that we set out to do when we started this. Shut it all down.
Slash twice with a machete. The third attack uses the pistol to bump and inflict critical damage to nearby enemies. Holding the attack button charges a slow and powerful ranged attack.
That's it for the content, there's a few of the usual QoL fixes and what not too, so check out the patchnotes if you'd like to know more about that.
If you haven't had the chance to play Curse of the Dead Gods, Skul: The Hero Slayer or Guacamelee 2, then we are running a bundle with them from 10am PT so go fill your boots and show some love for the indies!
We'll be back soon with some more news, hope you enjoy the update and as always please don't hesitate to leave us feedback here or on social media :)
Cheers,
Matt, EE & MT
