Dead Cells

Hello everyone! It’s been a hot minute… okay, a looooong minute… since last time. We’ve been closely tracking your reports, so we're stepping in today to squash the most disruptive bugs weighing down your runs. While our team is currently head-down cooking up the next Windblown Early Access update (launching later this month 🔥), we wanted to ensure our Dead Cells gang gets the love and care you deserve. This Steam patch focuses strictly on game stability, and we're actively working on dedicated console patches as we speak!

Honestly, we can't think of a better team to carry the Belmont legacy forward. 🦇 🏰 The Castle Gates Await If you haven't already, please make sure to wishlist Castlevania: Belmont's Curse to get notified at launch, and show the team some love!

Dead Cells , released in 2018, is one of the best roguelikes ever—"a stellar action platformer with gorgeous presentation and excellent combat," we said in our 90% review , a reputation that only grew over seven years of further development, 35 updates, and a whole spin-off studio. You might think that Dead Cells 2 would inevitably follow, but no: Developer Motion Twin instead opted to go for an entirely new game called Windblown ... Read more.

When your beloved indie hits the mainstream in a big way, every player wants a say in what you do next.
