It’s PAX East time, and that means announcements and updates are the new norm for a weekend. Among the games this time is Dead Cells, the addictive but brutal indie rougevania that hit Nintendo Switch last summer. Have a look at what’s due in its long-coming update, Rise of the Giant:
Aimed and made for all players of Dead Cells, it also features content specifically for those in the endgame or who’ve completed the game. Along with that comes a Skinning system and 50 new outfits to gather up, bolstering the game throughout.
See what else is new as per press release:
- 10 new enemy types
- 10 new weapons have been introduced, including the Giant Killer, the Boi Axe and the Thunder Shield, if you’re into that sort of thing.
- Three new skills have been included in the game
- And for the most advanced players: Rise of the Giant holds a new hidden level including an entirely new ending to your story
- And way, way more. The entire list of patch notes can be found here: https://dead-cells.com/patchnotes
The Rise of the Giant update is available for Dead Cells today on Steam, with Switch and other consoles due to follow shortly.
