Patch #26 is finally here, and it includes several exciting additions, including a new map, female characters, tons of new cosmetics and more.

The new map is called Dungeon and it supports all game modes. Spooky, scary and a close-quarters bloodbath, Dungeon plays unlike other maps in the game and is packed with fun interactables and traps of all kinds.

Long awaited, but here at last - female characters. Players now have the option to pick their body type under Body customization, which will change the selection of faces available (currently only one) and allow selecting from 4 new voices for female characters. For those wondering about any advantages, worry not, the hitboxes do not change.

As always, lots of new cosmetics await with entirely new sets of armors available and all new weapon skins. With this update, we’re also raising the base gold gain rate to 2x permanently, to help new players have a chance of grinding for all the stuff that’s now included in the game.

And for those who want to spice up their character customization even more, we are releasing the Dragon Set DLC, which comes with a full set of armor and a greatsword skin.

We're also enabling the Halloween event until November 3rd, so go and grab your Executioner's Hood and Shame Mask and chuck those pumpkins around!
