The Penitent One carves out a new fate in Blasphemous: Wounds of Eventide
The brand-new free update for The Game Kitchen’s multi-award-winning action-platformer launches today on PlayStation®4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch™, and PC.
Team17 and The Game Kitchen have today launched Wounds of Eventide, the third and final free update for action-platformer Blasphemous on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch™, and PC. 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.
Wounds of Eventide concludes a series of three post-launch updates released for Blasphemous since it’s 2019 launch, beginning with ‘Stir of Dawn’ which launched in 2020 and introduced the ‘New Torment’ mode, a New Game+ addition that challenged players with a new level of difficulty, plus new playstyles, new bosses, and much more. The second update, ‘Strife and Ruin’ launched last February and introduced Miriam from Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night into the world of Cvstodia as she sought help from The Penitent One, Strife and Ruin also added a new game mode and a ‘Demake Area’ that plays homage to classic 8-bit platformers. Full patch notes for Wounds of Eventide, along with previous Blasphemous updates can be found on Steam.
