Publisher Tate Multimedia and developer Trialforge Studio have recently announced that their party-based Soulslike action RPG Deathbound will be receiving a paid downloadable content package titled Accepted by Death. The DLC will be released on October 28, and will be priced at $4.99.
What’s Included in the Deathbound DLC?
In the Accepted by Death DLC, players will face new trials and uncover fresh mysteries as they step into a liminal space where the line between life and death blurs called Path of Death. This downloadable content introduces a Boss Rush Challenge, where players must release the great essences of five bosses representing five stages of grief. By doing so, they can face a corrupted judge of essences.
Furthermore, the downloadable content brings a new Hardcore Mode, a new way to experience the entire game. In this gruesome mode, as its name implies, characters who fall in battle will not return, and are gone forever.
About Deathbound
Deathbound is set in a callous world where faith and science clash. The forbidden city of Akratya is an unforgiving land that cannot be conquered alone. Bind with fallen warriors found throughout your crusade and dynamically transform between characters seamlessly in mid-combat with the unique four-hero party system.
Throughout combat, you will charge a sync meter shared across all characters. During an opportune moment, dispel your sync meter and unleash a devastating Morphstrike using the combined power of the bound fallen warriors. When faced with a formidable abomination, a precisely executed Morphstrike can be the deciding factor between life and death.
