It took us a longer time than usual to prepare, but better late than never: the 35th updated The End is Near is here! In this update, we are stuffing in new mobs, weapons, mutations and biome effects all expanding on the curse mechanic, 40+ new head skins, almost 20 new legendary affixes, extra accessibility options and more! TLDR: New additions based on one of our most iconic mechanics, Curse: 3 new mobs, 3 new weapons, 3 new mutations and a new biome effect for you to choose whether you are gonna take the risk for more rewards or not. New legendary affixes. 40+ new heads for customization options. New routing: you can now go to both Return to Castlevania biomes in one run. More accessibility options. New Curse Additions: 3 new mobs: Sore Loser: a cutie who can’t hurt you but is super clingy and annoying, always trying to be close to you and dash through you. When you kill it, you get cursed. Doom Bringer: every melee attack from it won’t cause damage, but will apply 2 stacks of curse and stun you, and you will instantly die if you have already got 50 stacks of curse. Sounds pretty fair right? {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27850661/4613c8c2bb7d30083d1cb627653864e9da45e556.gif Curser: it launches a slow homing projectile that can go through the walls. If you “accidentally” get caught by this projectile, you take damage and 5 stacks of curse. One more surprise! If you get close to it, it will bonk you with its staff. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27850661/7e094b1d6698ebe5ee394fcca25190b29dced2f1.gif Please note that cursed mobs won’t spawn randomly in your run! (yeah, we know mobs giving curses sounds a bit scary and even annoying) There is a new biome effect, Cursed Biomes, which features the new cursed mobs in exchange for extra rewards. You can choose to go into it with its rewards, or go to the other biomes that don’t have any scary cursed mobs. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27850661/7ffde852060c190078bde1d63d1a8a457a380a79.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/27850661/a0755c0d2fa796d60527209fb80634101cd7dd9d.png Here is more info about how Cursed Biome works in your run: Cursed biomes only spawn in runs with a Boss Cell level 2 or higher (boss fight biomes won’t be cursed). Just like biome incentives, there will be a specific icon above the exit to a cursed biome, so that you can have the choice of taking this challenge or just going to the other normal biomes. A cursed biome always contains 9 (+/-2) cursed mobs randomly selected from Curser, Sore Loser and Doom Bringer. There is, of course, a reward for that risk: all the items dropped in a cursed biome will drop 1 gear level higher, regardless of their source (shop, loots, etc.). The spawn chance of cursed chests also increases by 10% in such biomes. There is a cap to the number of cursed biomes that you can go through on your route, depending on the BC level, set as follows: from BC 2 to 5 respectively: 2, 3, 5 and 8 (i.e. in 5BC, there is no cap). This cap only limits the number of Cursed Biomes that you can go to in a r...The last Dead Cells update finally has a release dateJul 31, 2024 - PCGamesNDead Cells is coming to an end. Update 35 marks the last-ever patch to one of the best roguelikes on the market, and we finally have a release date. While I'm sad to see Dead Cells end its updates, I have no doubt in my mind that Evil Empire will send it out with a bang, cementing The Beheaded as a true modern videogame icon. The end is near people, so it's time to get prepared. Read the rest of the story...

I've not actually played much Dead Cells, I know it's high up there in the pantheon of roguelikes for many out there, but you know, there's just a whole lot of games out there, so where am I meant to fit it in? But earlier this week the first trailer for the animated adaptation of the beloved indie game, Dead Cells: Immortalis, dropped, and I'm thinking I'll have to make time for it. The trailer is a short one, only running for around a minute and a half, but it packs a whole lot into the limited amount of time it does have. Right off the bat I should note that it's going for its own artstyle different from the one used in the game's animated trailer, though it is made by the same animation studio, Bobbypills. You will have to read some subtitles as the trailer is dubbed in French, but an English version is expected later this year. The Dead Cells series is out next soo too, next month actually, on June 19, where it will be available on the streaming service Animation Digital Network. This is a French streaming service, to be clear, and there doesn't seem to be word on where else it will be available just yet, so you might have to wait a while before you can check it out in other territories.

Initially developed by Motion Twin, the hit action game was eventually handed over to Evil Empire following its 1.0 launch. On top of spearheading Dead Cells, Evil Empire has worked on multiple retro IPs over the past few years, and we now know that one of them is the newly announced roguelike The Rogue Prince of Persia. I got a chance to play the first few levels and fight a boss, and it's safe to say that fans of Dead Cells will find Evil Empire's latest to be an invigorating, if at times familiar, experience.
