Dead Cells “Breaking Barriers” Free Update Makes Game More Accessible to Everyone Starting Today on PC & Consoles

Evil Empire and Motion Twin worked alongside Ablegamers to create a huge new set of accessibility options and an Assist Mode, allowing for tailored, specific adjustments to Dead Cells

Bordeaux, France (June 23, 2022) – Evil Empire and Motion Twin today announced that the latest update to the multi-million-selling Dead Cells is now live across PC, Switch, Xbox and PlayStation. “Breaking Barriers” introduces a variety of optional accessibility settings for players, making its signature “tough but fair” gameplay available to a wider audience for the first time.

The developers worked closely with the Ablegamers organization and various legends from the Dead Cells community over the past months to design and test these new settings for people with disabilities, as well as the game’s new Assist Mode.

“The intent of this update is to allow players who struggle to, or cannot play, Dead Cells to be able to experience the game as we intended. We had feedback during beta testing that some people who don’t ‘need’ Assist Mode will use it regardless and the result is that they won’t play Dead Cells as a challenging roguelike,” said an Evil Empire spokesperson. “We’ve put multiple messages regarding this in-game, but in the end it’s up to the player how they want to enjoy the game. However, we will not disable achievements for players who use these options. We are not going to make it possible for people to play the game and then take achievements away from them.”

The new options in this update include mobility input adjustments such as hold to second jump/roll, customisable controls and more, along with visual options like UI size and transparency, font size/type, customisable background color filters, no-blood mode plus many more. Everything is collected in a specific accessibility menu to gather all these options in one place. There’s no point making an accessibility menu inaccessible…

Assist Mode exists in its own menu and contains:

●      Multiple lives – Each time you die you can resurrect from the beginning of the biome, in the same state that you started in. You can choose between 1, 3, 7 or infinite lives. This is targeted for players who have involuntary movements or activity, such as muscle spasms, to have another chance if their run is ruined by something that is out of their control.

●      Auto-hit – Automatically target nearby enemies with your primary melee weapon. This will automatically attack with your primary weapon, allowing players to just manage their secondary weapon and skills, reducing the need for rapid inputs.

●      Adjustable trap damage, enemy damage and enemy health in % increments, plus toggable options for slower parry window and trap speed. This is meant to allow specific, dare we say delicate, adjustment of the game’s challenge while leaving the rest of the game as it is.

●      An option to instantly reveal the whole map for players who struggle with spatial awareness.

In addition, the “Breaking Barriers” update comes with eight new weapon reworks, and a reduction in early-game item cost to allow players to unlock new weapons more quickly alongside the crucial life & gold upgrades.

Regarding future free content updates, a spokesperson for both studios said, “If you’re a Dead Cells player who doesn’t need any of the content that we’re introducing in this update, don’t worry. We have plenty of shiny new things to introduce to Dead Cells this year.”

The entire list of updates and the optional accessibility settings, which we encourage everyone to read, can be found at https://dead-cells.com/patchnotes.

Get a taste of building your own goblin tribe in a colorful and unique take on the city-builder genre

Auckland, New Zealand – 23rd June 2022 – Outerdawn is unleashing goblins on the gaming population this weekend with a free demo, running alongside the Steam Summer Sale, where players can also purchase Goblins of Elderstone for $9.99 / £7.75 / €8.39, 50% off the regular price.

The free demo will present a limited number of features in hour-long play sessions so that players can jump right in and start building and working with their goblins. Once the demo has been completed, anyone wishing to buy the full version of Goblins of Elderstone can upload the progress they made during the demo and receive rewards retroactively.

“Goblins of Elderstone has a lot of deeper functionalities outside of just city building, so we wanted to release a free demo to offer players the chance to experience the core mechanics and then dig deeper into the other features in the full version if they buy the game, which is also available for 50% off on Steam!”, said Gustav Seymore, Creative Director of the game. “We encourage you to join our Discord tribe to report bugs and issues, join in on discussions and generally to keep in touch! We’re gearing up for full launch, so your feedback is most welcome! Have fun!”

More information about Goblins of Elderstone

Goblins of Elderstone is a unique take on the city-building genre with a goblin-fuelled survival approach where nurturing tribal dynamics is key. Your emphasis is not only on buildings and commerce in your town, but on crafting the culture of its inhabitants and making sure they are happy. Treat your goblins well and they will (mostly) listen to you. Fail to meet their needs and expect them to riot, steal and kill each other. 

In addition to gathering resources and crafting structures, you must engage a layer of diplomacy as you navigate relationships with neighboring tribes, intrepid explorers, bandits, heroes and even gods. Your wits and skill at bartering/bribery negotiations, as well as the occasional pillaging, will help you transform Elderstone from a small village into an empire to be reckoned with.
