Hello, Pretenders!

Curse of the Dead Gods and its first content patch have been officially out for a few months now and we couldn’t be happier with your reviews and feedback!

Back in February, we released Curse of the Dead Gods with its full-intended content. At the moment, our team is still debating about adding more things to the game as we are satisfied with its current state, but we’re also enthusiastic adding more of your thoughts and cool suggestions! We are adjusting with the development of a new game at Passtech and still trying to figure out at what capacity we would be able to continue working on Curse of the Dead Gods.

Not adding new content doesn’t mean not hunting some bugs! Today, here is a not-so-hot hotfix that fixes a few issues that came along with the CURSE OF THE DEAD CELLS patch!

Have a look at the patch note below for the detailed list of changes:

🍉 = Community additions

• 🍉 Spawn: Cannot spawn in traps at the beginning of rooms anymore
  
• 🍉 Kill: Cannot kill yourself with Void Bombs when holding the Sword of Conjunctivius anymore
  
• 🍉 Death Throe Echos: The stalactites caused by the “Death Throe Echos” Curse cannot kill you anymore when holding the Sword of Conjunctivius
  
• 🍉 Xbeltz’aloc Face: Now works with the Sword of Conjunctivius
  
• 🍉 Thorny Seeds: Thorny Seeds don’t activate on self-hit anymore
  
• 🍉 Eagle Eye: Cannot heal you after death anymore
  
• 🍉 Heal on kill: Cannot heal you after killing yourself with a bomb using the “heal on kill” affix anymore
  
• 🍉 Debug tool: Cannot use the debug tool in the HUB anymore
  
• 🍉 General: Fixed some localization and spelling mistakes
  
• 🍉 Xbox One: Fixed the Grey Screen bug that would occur when using Void Bombs
  
• 🍉 Nintendo Switch/Origin: Fixed a localization issue which wouldn’t warn players that activating the Assist mode was permanent
  Note: Assist mode has been deactivated on all Nintendo Switch/Origin saves because of a bug linked to the localization text. If you had a save mid-run, it will be erased. Finish it before updating! Otherwise, no general progress will be lost and you should be able to activate the Assist mode again with the correct warning message this time!

Hello, Pretenders!

Today, we are excited to release Curse of the Dead Gods’ first free post-launch patch! For this particular event, we partnered up with our friends at Motion Twin & Evil Empire to bring you this surprising crossover between Dead Cells and Curse of the Dead Gods!

You’ll learn everything you need to know about the CURSE OF THE DEAD CELLS UPDATE in our new trailer, right here:

In addition to this crossover, we added a bunch of new content for Curse of the Dead Gods. Don’t forget to check our patch notes to learn all the crispy details. And that’s not all! Curse of the Dead Gods is currently 20% off on Steam and all platforms. It’s time to celebrate!

-------

🍉 = Community additions

• 3 new Iconic Weapons:
  + Broadsword of the Knight (Broadsword in Dead Cells)
  + Sword of Conjunctivius (Cursed Sword in Dead Cells)
  + Crossbow of the Condemned (Explosive Crossbow in Dead Cells)
  Note: These weapons need to be purchased in the Forsaken Weaponry!
  
• Vault rooms (Cursed Chests in Dead Cells): A new room type inspired by the Cursed Chest in Dead Cells! Defeat all enemies without getting hit to reveal what’s inside this special chest… Spoilers: it’s cursed
  
• New Curse - Curse of the Headless: Pay homage to the Prisoner by sporting his iconic flaming head… at the cost of a terrible Curse

• New Fighting Style for Two-handed weapons: Bombs
  + Pirate Bombs
  + Crackling Grenades
  + Sticks of Dynamite
  + Incendiary Bombs
  + Fuming Skulls
  + Lightning Orbs
  + “Devouring Orbs”, Bombs of the Void
  
• New Curse: Reflected Temple. Yes, it means what you think it means
  
• 7 New Relics:
  + Alchemist’s Manual
  + Mark of the Enlightened
  + Templar Amulet
  + Scroll of Sacred Songs
  + Obsidian Bracelet
  + Blazing Ring
  + Thorns Seed
  
• 🍉 Weapon banishing: It is now possible to ban and unban weapons from the Forsaken Weaponry in the Underworld, at no cost
  
• 🍉 Sorting system: It is now possible to sort all weapons in the Forsaken Weaponry section of the Underworld. Base weapons are now available for consultation
  
• 🍉 Assist Mode: Curse of the Dead Gods is a challenging game by design. However, if you want a more customized and accessible experience, you can now enable the Assist Mode to drastically change the game’s behaviour
  
• More Rooms: We added a bunch more rooms in the Jaguar, Eagle and Serpent Temples to balance things out and bring more variety

• 🍉 Eagle Temple general balancing: We heard you! We’ve made quite a few tweaks in the Eagle Temple to try to create a more enjoyable experience
  + Less “Medium” enemies at the beginning of explorations
  + Made some enemy waves “easier” in some Weapon and Upgrade rooms
  + Spawning of enemies in Tier 3 Time Challenge rooms is now kinder
  + Projectiles from the Eagle head traps are now slower, making them easier to dodge
  + In some rooms, percentage of traps appearing has been reduced
  
• General:
  + Element - Lightning: Fixed Lightning strike damage calculation, now taking into consideration all damage modifiers from triggering attack
  Design Notes: Some damage modifiers, like critical damage, were not taken into consideration when computing the lightning strikes’ damage, making them less powerful than intended. They should now always deal 50% damage of the triggering strike. Some lightning weapons’ damage has been reworked to balance the equation).
  + Gold - Challenge Rooms: Increased initial amount of Gold to 2500 (from 2000)
  + Curse - Biting Breath: Increased attack range of Eagle statues under the effect of the curse "Biting Breath”
  + Blessing - Skillful Adaptation: Skillful Adaptation is now triggered when killing summoned enemies
  + Blessing - Brutal Temper: Fixed this blessing so it correctly triggers in every situation
  + Rooms:
  • Jaguar Temple: The Exploration and Challenge rooms of the Jaguar Temple are now assigned to specific tiers (like the other temples)
    
  • Serpent Temple: Challenge Room in Tier 3 is now a bit more difficult (harmonization)
  + Relic - Eagle Eye:
  • Removed Rare Version
    
  • Very Rare version now heals 5% of critical damage dealt (from 10%)
  Design Notes: Eagle Eye was just off the charts in terms of healing potential. It should now encourage players to build a strong synergy to make the best of it rather than relying on the relic’s raw power.
  + 🍉 Curse removal: It is now possible to remove a ‘Pending Curse’ while at a Champion or Boss room. Pending Curses can be Temple-themed Curses in Mixed Explorations or Curses received while fighting a Champion or a Boss.
  + Greed Kill: Gold gain Bonus is now maxed out at x10 (+500%) instead of x20 (+1000%)
  Design Notes: Reaching x20 Greed Kill was almost only possible by using the Endless Greed blessing, thus rewarding this blessing with a huge amount of additional Gold in addition to its already powerful effects. The change should not change much gold gains without this blessing, and better balance the gains when playing with it.
  
• 🍉 Enemies:
  + Blademasters: Regular versions’ HP reduced to 250 (from 270), Elites’ reduced to 750 (from 810)
  + Sentinels: Rain of Arrows attack cannot be parried anymore (consistency with other AOE attacks)
  + Soul Reliquaries:
  • Regular versions can now heal up to 2 enemies (from 3). Elite versions still heal up to 3 enemies
    
  • Soul Reliquaries are now less inclined to use their Siphon Beam while other enemies are attacking around them
    
  • Soul Reliquaries have increased recovery time after Healing or using Siphon Beam
    
  • Regular versions’ HP reduced to 160 (from 180), Elites’ reduced to 480 (from 540)
  + 🍉 Dreadful Offspring:
  • Reduced tracking time for their Chain Lightning attack to 1sec (from 2sec)
    
  • Increased attack cooldowns so they attack less frequently
    
  • Regular versions’ HP reduced to 180 (from 200), Elites’ reduced to 540 (from 600)
  + Malok Paal: Fist pounding attack cannot be parried anymore (consistency with other AOE attacks)
  Design Notes: The behaviour of this Champion has also been slightly modified to make him a little more active and efficient.
  + Final Boss: Heavy weapon smash in the second phase cannot be parried anymore (consistency with other AOE attacks)
  + Dark Avatar of the Serpent: Increase summoning cooldown to 35sec (from 30sec)
  
• Weapons:
  + 🍉 Champions’ Weapons: Secret Champions’ Weapons can now also be found in Weapons Sanctuaries once unlocked and bought in the Forsaken Weaponry!
  + Throwing Weapons: Raw damage of all Throwing Weapons has been increased by ~10%
  + Obsidian Stiletto: Increased Raw Damage to 24 (from 20)
  + Bone Shard Whip: Increased Critical damage time after a kill to 5 seconds (from 3). Raw Damage set to 32 (from 29)
  + Blazing Shield: Raw Damage set to 32 (from 35)
  + Barbed Shield: Now reflects 100% damage to parried melee attackers (from 50%)
  + Storm’s Bulwark: Raw Damage set to 28 (from 35)
  + Sky Hammer: Raw Damage set to 36 (from 40)
  + Storm’s Point: Raw Damage set to 22 (from 24)
  + 🍉 “Moonblade”, Night’s Sword: Raw Damage set to 15 (from 12)
  + 🍉 “Gambit”, Xbeltz’aloc’s Gauntlet: Charged Attacks extra hits deal now 200% damage and critical damage (same as final Charged attack hit)
  + 🍉 “Annihilation”, Bow of madness: Raw Damage set to 15 (from 12)
  + 🍉 “Cataclysm”, T’amok’s Fury: Can no longer have the Affix reducing damage dealt in Light
  + 🍉 “Reaper”: Raw damage set to 20 (from 16)
  + 🍉 “Abnegation”, Xbeltz’aloc’s Blade: Raw damage set to 13 (from 12)
  + 🍉 “Fulmination”, Death’s Rempart: Raw damage set to 32 (from 28)
  + 🍉 "Effulgence”, Harbringer of Yaatz: Charged shots no longer cross enemies
  Design Notes: With the lightning strikes calculation fixes, this change encourages players to use lightning on multiple targets before releasing the powerful lightning strikes.
  
• 🍉 “Disembowler”, Dread Claw: All finishers’ hits now deal critical damage
  Design Notes: Many Cursed Weapons were a bit low in terms of damage. In combination with their special affixes review, Cursed Weapons should now get the place they deserve!
  
• 🍉 Cursed Affixes:
  + +50% damage taken reduced to +25% damage taken
  + +100% damage taken reduced to +50% damage taken
  + Gold loss on each attack reduced to 5 (from 10)
  + Merged +damage per other Cursed Weapon and +damage per Cursed Relic in a single Affix
  + Added new Cursed Affix: +50% damage to Elite, Champions & Bosses

• Relics icons: All relics now have their own pretty icons!
  Note: We've been putting off relics’ icons for the entire Early Access period to focus on more essential features, but we've finally given each of the game's relics a visual!
  The main effect is now represented in the item's frame. In addition to the visual enrichment, this should help to better identify the relics in the UI and make it easier to remember their effects.
  
• Main Hub: Pimp my Hub!
  + Starting weapons altars are now all fancy (and with a progression system!)
  + A more visual effect to the resurrection of your character
  + A lot of potteries
  + Even more potteries
  
• Biomes & Bosses introductions: We added a little name to all the different sections of the Temple. Champions & Bosses also now display their names during their introductions
  
• Xak’ olchir, the Blood Hunter: Changed the look of his invocation portals
  
• 🍉 Dreadful Offsprings: Teleportation and projectiles VFXs have been modified to make the combat more clear
  
• Curses:
  + Dark Fervor: Since Dark Fervor removes the corruption cost of changing rooms, the purple glow of the doors is replaced by the color of the current temple you’re exploring
  + Gold Puncture: Under the effect of Gold Puncture, a seal marks each door to signify the payment in gold (or life) that the player is about to make
  
• Weapons:
  + Spears: We added visual emphasis to the tip of Spear attacks to better convey their passive critical effect
  + Whips: The VFX of the whip off-hand combo has been reworked to better differentiate it from the charged Spear attacks
  
• Stamina while poisoned: Dots representing Stamina are now green when you’re suffering the poison effect

• Claws: Fixed a bug where you could do a charged attack with the claw without stamina
  
• 🍉 T’amok’s Bones: Fixed a bug where players could stack on Constitution with the Blessing “T’amok’s Bones”
  
• 🍉 Brutal Temper: Fixed a bug where Brutal Temper wouldn’t apply correctly
  
• 🍉 OOB: Fixed some OOB issues, occurring mostly on the Nintendo Switch
  
• 🍉 Blood Emblems: Fixed a bug where you couldn’t win a Blood Emblem after an OOB issue in the Abomination’s room
  
• Critters: Fixed an issue where critters (bats, vermins), would count in the ‘Enemies killed’ stats
  
• Final Boss: Fixed a bug where the diving attack of the Final Boss didn’t inflict corruption
  
• 🍉 Localization: Fixed some minor localization issues (missing Japanese characters, misspellings)

我们很荣幸地宣布与Motion Twin和Evil Empire合作，进行融合更新的《Curse of the Dead Cells》！

这次《无间冥寺》的免费更新，将增加一个新的诅咒、三件新武器和一种新的挑战室，所有的灵感都来自于《Dead Cells》。此外，还会有新的双手武器样式，新的诅咒，等等。

探险家们不要担心：《Curse of the Dead Cells》更新是免费的! 为即将到来的4月14日的重大更新好准备！

Hello, Pretenders!

It's been a little over a week since the release of Curse of the Dead Gods on all platforms and we couldn't be more happy and proud of the reception! If you've been hesitant to step foot into the Temple, know that you can get Curse of the Dead Gods with a 10% discount until March 9th!

We‘re aware that some explorers have suffered from terrible Curses last week. If you had trouble with PS4/PS5 pads, achievements, and Sincere Offerings, our hotfix today has come to the rescue!

In this minor patch, we fixed (ver. 1.23.3.8):

• 🍉 PS4 & PS5 pads connectivity: Fixed most issues where PS4 & PS5 controllers weren't recognized by the game at launch or after being disconnected
  
• 🍉 Playstation UI buttons: Fixed an issue where the inputs in the HUD wouldn't display the proper buttons for Playstation controllers
  
• 🍉 Invulnerability / Omnipotence / Clairvoyance Achievements: Fixed a bug where those 3 Achievements wouldn't unlock
  
• 🍉 Sincere Offerings: Fixed a bug where you could pay with Corruption at Altars with your mouse when suffering this Curse
  
• Gold stats: Fixed a bug where the Gold record wasn't updated in the Selection menu

Note: We expect most issues with PS4 & PS5 pads to be fixed, but if you are still encountering problems, let us know on our Discord server[discord.gg] or in the comments under this post!

---

Now close your eyes, Pretenders, if you don't want to get spoiled! We are going to reveal how to drop the Eagle Champions' weapons ⚡️ We know a few of you have already found the conditions, but are still waiting for a confirmation. Here it is!

Both weapons have a 20% chance to drop if the condition is met. There is only one requirement for each Champion, and it is never too late to complete it:

To drop “Effulgence”, Harbinger of Yaatz, you need to inflict the fatal blow to K'ax Taca while he is attacking with his laser/lightning beam.

To drop “Sunderer”, Fist of Doom, you need to perform 5 perfect dodges when he dashes.

The odds are now in your hands, Pretenders! Let us know what you think of those new weapons ;)

If you want to see them being unlocked live, Margaux from the team is currently doing a devstream! Join her on our Twitch channel[twitch.tv].

《无间冥寺》在Steam抢先体验期间获得玩家一致好评。多亏玩家的反馈，加上我们对游戏做的许多调整及新增的内容，游戏才能在Steam上获得90%特别好评的殊荣。

除了现存的多数内容外，《无间冥寺》的正式发售也会为大家带来全新内容，包括旅程的终点还有探索死神神庙独特的方式。

Passtech Games工作室的领导Sylvain Passot提到：“若没有玩家在抢先体验期间不断的支持及团队出色的工作，《无间冥寺》的正式发售不会现在就见天日。多亏不断增长的玩家社区的反馈，《无间冥寺》才得以往正确的方向不断壮大。我们等不及看到新玩家进入神庙，也期待2021年将推出的更多新内容。”

《无间冥寺》现已登陆Steam抢先体验，并将于2月23日正式发售！欲知详情，请参考官方网站[www.focus-home.com]，或加入官方Discord频道[discord.gg]跟开发者畅聊。

各位妄求者好！
希望你们还喜欢上个月推出的鹰神尖塔更新档。这座新神庙带来了更多的敌人、陷阱、勇士怪和头目。有人已经成功登上鹰神尖塔顶端，打败Dark Avatar of the Eagle了吗？我们很想知道！

《无间冥寺》第三座神庙：鹰神尖塔的推出是游戏自开启抢先体验以来的重大里程碑。我们非常自豪能够及时完成其开发工作！多亏你们的反馈和建议，我们发现了游戏还有需要调整的部分。我们会进行此方面的相关工程。如果你们对我们的开发过程感兴趣，可以阅读我们的开发日记！
同时，我们的艺术总监Valentin也决定跟大家分享一些作品！看一下吧！


正如你们能在上方更新路线图中所见，《无间冥寺》1.0版近在咫尺！1.0版不仅将为大家带来《无间冥寺》的最终神庙（还有路线图上的其他内容），也会将游戏带至主机！引颈盼望的主机玩家很快就能一览《无间冥寺》的魅力了！尽管游戏开发工作已经告一段落，这不代表我们不会继续进行《无间冥寺》的开发工作。在游戏正式发布后，我们预计至少推出一个更新档 。至于未来，我们要看看这款游戏在市场上的表现如何再做决定！

因此，我们现在致力于完成这项开发工作。我们花了许多心思来改善游戏的每一个层面并修复Bug，使玩家能享有极为顺畅的游戏体验。另外，假期就要到了，我们决定休息一段时间，和我们爱的人一起庆祝！这也是为何在《无间冥寺》正式发布之前，我们不会推出新补丁的原因。

我们会在2021年回归，并带来更多消息！同时，希望大家都有一个愉快的假期，用来陪伴家人及朋友，一起玩游戏等等。
PS：也请别担心，我们不会因为是假期而消失的！若想跟我们交流，欢迎加入官方Discord服务器，或关注我们的Twitch，准时收看每一次直播！
