[October 24, 2024] – Tate Multimedia and Trialforge Studio announced Deathbound: Accepted By Death, the game’s first DLC, during the Indie Horror Showcase. Deathbound is a dynamic single-player party-based soulslike that challenges players to combine the powers of fallen warriors in strategic combat. Gear up as the DLC is set to launch on October 28th, 2024, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam, GOG, and Epic Games Store.
In the Deathbound: Accepted By Death DLC, players will face new trials and uncover fresh mysteries as they step into the Path to Death – a liminal space where the line between life and death blurs. This DLC introduces a Boss Rush Challenge, where players must release the great essences of five bosses representing five stages of grief – Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance. Survive this gauntlet to unlock the final confrontation with Grief – The Purifier, a corrupted judge of essences and the mightiest of them all.
In addition, the DLC brings Hardcore Mode, a new way to experience the entire game. In Hardcore Mode, death is final and strategy is key. Characters who fall in battle will not return. Only players who master every aspect of combat will succeed in this punishing, high-stakes version of Deathbound.
Key Features of the Accepted By Death DLC:
-
The Gauntlet of Grief: Tackle reimagined battles against the five stages of grief in an unforgiving Boss Rush. Each encounter offers new mechanics and challenges, culminating in the ultimate test against Grief – The Purifier.
-
No Second Chances: Experience the harshest challenge yet with Hardcore Mode, where death is permanent, and each decision could be your last. Only the most skilled will survive.
-
Essence of Power: Equip powerful new items like the Cloak of Semanthia, which enhances stamina regeneration when your health is low, or unlock the Anointed Therone skin and The Purger sword, granting an entirely new moveset to dominate your enemies.
