Dead Cells is ironically titled in that it’s a game that feels anything but six feet under. The title has been in a near-constant state of growth since its launch, with multiple updates published that have largely transformed the game in many ways. There is yet another update coming, this time dubbed The Bestiary Update.
The Bestiary Update is live on #Steam, introducing 6 enemies, 10 affixes, 3 outfits, new achievements and some balancing/quality-of-life changes. As usual, we’re bringing it to consoles ASAP.https://t.co/9izzLUMplP#gaming #indiegames pic.twitter.com/mcHaG9FJ7x
