Blasphemous 2 is expanding with the paid DLC Mea Culpa
Team17 and developer The Game Kitchen are ready to invite players back to Blasphemous II with two update, the paid Mea Culpa and the free True Torment update. Check out the trailer for the paid update below.
On October 31st, the free and paid updates will roll out across all the platforms the game is on, so PC, Switch, PlayStation and Xbox and here is what you can expect from both. Starting off with the free update, True Torment:
Expanded zones: Choir of Thorns, Sunken Cathedral and Basilica of Ancient Faces have all been reforged with new challenges to explore and conquer.
New connecting zones: Quicker traversal between zones already explored so you can dash your way across the world faster than Sarmiento and Centella.
A new challenge: The Labyrinth of Tides presents a new challenge for those ready to face it.
New Game+: Totally adjustable difficulty options to upgrade your savegame from stronger enemies to deadlier spikes and lethal falls.
New enemies: Cvstodia's denizens rise to face you, are you up to their challenge?
as well as a host of upgrades for the Penitent One, Quality of Life improvements and Achievements.
So there is a good amount of updates to the base game with the True Torment update, but if you want to really expand the game, Mea Culpa will offer this:
New Zones: Two massive new zones for you to endure their harsh winds and ascend their towering heights
New Bosses: Fight some of the greatest challenges and stare defeat in the face in Mea Culpa
New Quests: Piece together your sword and experience the power of Mea Culpa. Plus meet new characters along the way.
New NPCs: 4 New compatriots for your journey, will they accept their fate or will you change them forever?
New Alternative Ending: face some of Blasphemous II's fiercest challenges.
as well as ways to grow the power of the Mea Culpa.
With the base games release a little over a year ago, we enjoyed the game but felt they played it a little to safe with the sequel, so both content updates here seem to be challenging that. There will also be a 20% launch discount on the paid DLC for 2 weeks, meaning you can get the content for cheaper if you buy early.
