Blasphemous 2 Free DLC Released via Update 1.009
Blasphemous II: The Third Sin takes place within a huge and foreboding gothic castle that’s a quarter of the size of the entire Blasphemous II and Mea Culpa world maps combined.
The Third Sin Free Expansion Adds:
- New map/area to explore (¼ size of the entire Blasphemous II map, including Mea Culpa)
- One new Boss
- New enemies
- New weapon – Blade Tipped Whip
- New prayers
- Unlockable outfits
- Boss Gallery
- New gameplay experience – three Familiars
- Six additional music tracks
- Five new achievements/trophies
Blasphemous II: The Third Sin challenges you to explore and overcome a part of Cvstodia that once served as a refuge for the nobles, until The Miracle wrought devastation within the castle walls.
Set across the fortress’s meandering halls, twisting towers, cavernous library, and dank crypt, the expansion also features a gallery allowing players to replay previous bosses, and introduces a new gameplay experience in the form of three Familiars – magical entities that accompany The Penitent One, supporting them in both combat and exploration.
Added to your armoury is a new weapon, a blade-tipped whip, enhancing The Penitent One’s move set with a series of standard and special attacks to vanquish foes into dust.
Blasphemous II: The Third Sin also includes new prayers, unlockable outfits, *five new achievements/trophies, and an additional six music tracks by series composer Carlos Viola to further immerse players into the castle’s uneasy ambience.
