Dead Cells: The Queen & the Sea

Released: 1/6/2022

Battle your way through a rotten shipwreck, scale a burning lighthouse and confront your deadliest foe yet. If you manage to make it through all that, maybe you’ll finally get off this god-forsaken island... This late-game content gives you an alternative to the High Peak Castle, Derelict Distillery and Throne Room biomes. Infested Shipwreck: Fight through the claustrophobic hallways of a sunken vessel, while multi-legged eldritch abominations hunt you from the shadows. Lighthouse: Ascend this soaring tower while fending off the relentless attacks of the Queen’s Guardians and outrunning the hungry flames rising from below. The Crown: Try to get off this cursed island by lighting the beacon at the lighthouse summit. However, your past won’t let you go without a fight... This DLC also gives you the usual extras: - 9 new weapons, including a throwable shark, a trident and a pirate hook hand (eyepatch not included) - a not-so-cute pet - loads of outfits - new enemies to bash
