    We’re reaching out with some important updates on Update 34 “Clean Cut” on mobile, Update 35 “The End is Near” on PC/Consoles, and an important announcement regarding Dead Cells’ future.

    First off, Update 34 is set to arrive on mobile later this year - sorry about the wait. Our initial plan was to release it alongside Update 35, but as things unfolded, we had to adjust our timeline to get everything where we wanted it to be.

    Speaking of Update 35, your patience and enthusiasm since its alpha release have been awesome. We really wanted to bring this update to you quickly, but it turns out we can’t release it just yet. We are all hands on deck trying to figure this out, so please look out for more updates in the future.

    Update 35 for Dead Cells marks the end of our creative journey on the game. After an incredible 5-year collaboration in bringing additional content to Dead Cells’ live-ops, Evil Empire will be pursuing new adventures and we can’t wait to see what they come up next. This comes after much reflection, especially following the awesome success of the “Return to Castlevania” DLC last year. Our commitment to avoiding the “more of the same” trap and keeping Dead Cells fresh and original has led us to this point; as we’ve seen with other long-running series, it’s crucial not to overextend and risk diminishing the unique charm that makes Dead Cells special to us all. This change explains the recent quiet period on updates, as concluding such a partnership required careful planning to ensure a smooth process for everyone, including the community. As always, we will of course continue to find solutions to make sure that all quality of life issues and bugs are properly fixed across all platforms to provide a worthy experience to all of you.

    I hope they introduce the option to deactivate certain tie-ins as part of the final update. I have some negative memories related to a particular game that sometimes shows up in Dead Cells and I’d like to be able to turn it off.

        My abusive ex bought me the game. The game reminds me of all the times I wanted to kill myself to escape the abuse.

        It’s called trauma and it can be pretty freakin’ serious. No need to be insensitive, especially in the context of a game. We’re here to have fun, mate.

    Partnering with Konami was the end of this game for me. To link up with the dead series Castlevania was just sad to see. The love for that series, for me, is all in the past. I can’t stand modern Konami.

      LOL literally no person on the entire planet forced you to play those levels in the DLC. There are few instances I have ever seen that are more of a “you” thing than this comment.

          You are entitled to your opinion, no matter how dumb it might seem (I have no opinion on your opinion btw, I haven’t played this game yet). People seem to forget that.

          I’ll play the game first, then come back and talk shit later. 😆

          The game looks dope, after all is said and done.

      You win the most idiotic comment of the week. It’s just so many levels of pure stupidity.
