Named ‘Wounds Of Eventide’ (love a few wounds with my Catholocism), the update brings the story to a point that the upcoming sequel will pick up.

“Unveiling the final chapter of The Penitent One’s first story, Wounds of Eventide offers new levels, bosses, items, and secrets to unearth, while unlocking another fate for Cvstodia that leads into the events of the Blasphemous sequel that was announced earlier this year for a 2023 launch,” explains the blurb.

You can’t find all the newness with a late-game save, mind, so maybe it’s time for a replay?

Thepatch notesalso detail a few bugfixes.

This is the third big free content update for Blasphemous.The firstadded a New Game+ mode with a new questline and new bosses in August 2020, whilethe secondadded a Boss Rush mode and a crossover with Bloodstained in February 2021. Now, the end. For now.

We’ve declared Blasphemous one of the bestgames like Dark Souls, saying “it runs so hard with its theme that you’ve got to admire its blood-soaked vestments. It feels like a bitterly lapsed Roman Catholic and ardent metal fan travelled back in time and made a soulsy game in the era of pixel Castlevania.”
