Publisher Team17 and developer The Game Kitchen have announced Blasphemous II free update “The Third Sin.” It is available now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Switch, and PC, and will be available for PlayStation 4 at a later date.
Get the details below.
“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” challenges players 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 the player’s armory 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.
Blasphemous II is available now for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Switch, and PC via Steam.
