00:00Hey everyone, as usual it's been way too long since we've done one of these
00:03I hope everything is going well for you guys
00:06From our side, we're really set up this year
00:08We've got a heap of work to do
00:09In fact we posted a roadmap of what we're planning
00:12In one of our latest Steam news
00:13So if you haven't seen it, the link will be in the description
00:18Moving on to the news for the day
00:20What we're codenaming the Hand of the King update for the moment
00:24We've just released it and we just wanted to let you know
00:26That this is like the last major content addition to Dead Cells
00:31Before we implement the lore
00:32Which will be our 1.0 launch date later on
00:36We've got a lot of polishing and a lot of things to take care of in the meantime
00:38So we want to be able to add some extra content
00:42Until we get to that first free DLC that we mentioned in the lore
00:47So as such this sixth update brings three major new additions
00:51So you've got a new level, a new boss and new difficult settings
00:55So it kind of goes without saying that you're going to figure everything out by yourselves
00:58But it might be a good idea just to have a little bit of a look
01:01Because that difficult setting is pretty hard
01:05So the new biome as you can see is very originally set in a castle
01:10And it's got two new major enemy types
01:12So the Lancer and the Knight
01:14You know these weapons, you've seen them before somewhere
01:18But their gameplay is similar to what you would be expecting
01:20With a little bit of a twist when you're something you're trying to bring in with each one of our
01:24updates
01:26So you can expect the new boss, a codename Hand of the King
01:28Or if you're thinking of something cool
01:31To give you a bit of a run for your money
01:33It's a very intense fight
01:34You've got very short windows of opportunity to get in and attack him
01:37So you know, you're going to need to think quick
01:39And you're going to have to spam that roll button
01:41And don't forget to breathe because it is intense
01:45So with this new update, beating the boss is now the only means to access the higher difficulty levels
01:50So you actually need to finish the glitch to unlock each one of those
01:52We've added a 4th difficulty level
01:55Which we're also referring to as the Nightmare difficulty
01:58So in that basically there's no refills for your flask at all
02:03However, sort of to balance that out
02:04We did increase the level of weapons in the 3rd and 4th difficulty settings
02:09So we'll do a bit more damage, even if it's a risky deal
02:14As usual, there's a bunch of other changes
02:16So the duration of the runs has increased notably
02:19With all the new bosses and levels that we've been adding them
02:22So what we've done is we've actually decreased the length of the Osiru
02:26The Sepulcher and the Graveyard
02:29As well as the Fogfort or the Fishing Valley Chase
02:32As we refer to it internally here
02:35So that way it's going to give you a little bit more of a feeling of run-based
02:39Instead of a 2 hour long epic struggle to get to the end
02:44In those levels we've also tweaked some other level designs
02:47So for example the shops and the treasures are a little bit different to what you might be used to
02:53A lot of people were actually asking about one tweak in particular
02:56And that was to do with the dodge mechanic and certain weapons
02:59So now for example your dodge doesn't actually break up a series of strikes for certain weapons
03:04So for example that broadsword you can now get through all of its different attack patterns
03:09Whilst rolling in between attacking
03:10So that's pretty cool
03:12And so there's always a long list of smaller changes
03:16For example new weapons, skills and a lot of balancing included in the game
03:20But the most important one is concerning the amount of HP you get when you pick up the scroll
03:25So now survival is going to give you a little bit more than brutality
03:28Which is going to give you a little bit more than tactics
03:31So that's pretty much it for today
03:33I hope you like everything that you can see here
03:35Thanks for watching
03:36And if it's cold out there for you as it is for us
03:40But don't forget a scarf and a rug up for winter
03:43And we'll talk to you again soon
03:44Bye!
