![]() The Queen and the Sea adds the aforementioned pet summon, as well as over a dozen new weapons and plenty of new costumes. If you beat her, you’ll unlock her sword and see a short new ending cinematic. It’s a good fight, but it doesn’t quite match Dead Cells‘ other final boss in most ways. She dashes across the screen, has an ability that can repel your attacks, and cuts myriad slashes that can destroy your health bar in no time. Honestly, I feel like she’s a good deal less threatening than the level you have to finish to face her, but she’s still no slouch. There’s no other level in the game like this.įinally, if you’re able to best the three mini-bosses, you’ll move on to fight the Queen, who is a new final boss of Dead Cells. Also, it adds two more mini-bosses that all attack you as you move your way up the lighthouse, culminating in what’s easily one of the roughest fights in the whole game. After making it to a certain point, you have to fight them, only for the level to continue afterward. Of course, you’re also chased by a mini-boss. You walk in, only to have to start racing your way upward once the place catches fire. Once you get through this area, you’re greeted with one of the toughest levels in all of Dead Cells: The Lighthouse. It’s a great addition to the game, but it’s quite easy to die if you let your guard down for even a second. You have to fight a new giant shrimp enemy to get the key to it (as well as an evolving pet summon version of one that’s quite awesome), but versions of the same enemy are prowling the level. As a late-game Dead Cells level, it’s tough as nails. Then you just go through the Clock Tower and then find a locked door after you fight the boss, which you use the key to open.Īfter unlocking the path, you can then enter The Queen and the Sea’s new normal level: Infested Shipwreck. He tasks you with tracking down a key in Stilt Village. Searching there leads you to find the fisherman, who is finally back in the game after vanishing following the Early Access period. The scroll asks you to find someone in the Toxic Sewers. To unlock the new stuff, you’ll be given a scroll by a tentacle as soon as you start a new run. Strangely, The Queen and the Sea requires one of the most vanilla routes in Dead Cells. So the question stands: is The Queen and the Sea worth it? One of the new areas is quite surprising, and some of the additions are very welcome indeed. Technically comprised of three new areas, it includes even more variation to a game already bursting with it. Unsurprisingly, The Queen and the Sea, the final part of this trilogy, adds new late-game content. The other two paid releases added extra early- and mid-game biomes, as well as a bevy of new weapons and the like. Game + all three DLCs - $21.49 (for two weeks from launch)ĭLC bundle - $9.99 (for two weeks from launch)Īll of these deals can be picked up via your gaming platform’s digital storefront.Dead Cells has had a healthy helping of DLC since it launched out of Early Access. If you’re new to Dead Cells or are just looking for a good deal, here are your options: Aside from that, players can expect hidden treasure, side quests, new outfits, and even an entirely new ending as well! You’ll also come across new weapons in this expansion as well as a new Hand Hook to toss enemies around with. The Leghugger, is the new, evolving, summonable creature that feasts on your enemies as it attacks and eventually matures into its adult form. To help you along your quest off of the island, you’ll also find a new evolving pet. She can even slice your screen into pieces. She adapts to her enemy’s tactics depending on their strategy and uses their own tricks against them. Of course, besides the biomes, there’s the epic new boss! Aptly called, The Queen, she is touted as being unlike any boss we’ve seen so far. Ever want to fend off enemies while climbing up as fast as you can whilst flames rise below you? You will! Players will journey through The Infested Shipwreck and The Lighthouse two distinct biomes that offer aspects brand new to Dead Cells. Where the game’s first bit of DLC, The Bad Seed and Fatal Falls started the Beheaded’s next journey to find a way off of the island, this last chapter will tie up the new storyline in a big way. This new expansion offers formidable enemies and a new boss along with new challenges and biomes. ![]() Titled Dead Cells: The Queen and the Sea, the DLC serves as the epic conclusion to the story introduced by the first of the three DLCs. ![]() Yesterday marked the release of the third piece of DLC for Motion Twin and Evil Empire’s 2018 rogue-lite Metroidvania title, Dead Cells.
