Dead Cells has its final update out now with The End is Near
Six years after the main release, Dead Cells has seen it's final update, packed full of content to give it a good send off.
While there's nothing wrong with a game being declared complete and stopping updates, the way this went down doesn't sit right. Evil Empire (the studio that split off from Motion Twin specifically to maintain Dead Cells) had longer-term plans and the resources to make them happen, but Motion Twin then ordered Evil Empire to stop development because they thought an actively developed Dead Cells would be a competitor to Windblown that they could preemptively kill off.
Is there any reliable source for this information? Or is it rumours only.
It sucks because Windblown looked cool but now I don't want to support it.
Just play the game
I'd actually like my game to be complete and to not spend more money on the same damn game.
This is a godsend. Game's already confusing enough as it is 😂
I get what you mean, but Dead Cells was already a completed roguelike on launch. The DLC's add variety and additional story, but you can still get the full gameplay experience with just the base game.
It's like saying you won't support the Elden Ring because it has DLC.
Also, the Castlevania DLC is just fucking cool. The soundtrack for those levels alone are just -chef's kiss-, and probably the closest we'll get to a new 2D Castlevania 🥲
Much much much love for Dead Cells and the people who work on it. Fantastic game with devs who love it.
Finally, I get to play it.
