As a seasoned gamer who has traversed the twisted lands of Cvstodia in both Blasphemous and its sequel, I can say with confidence that the upcoming Mea Culpa DLC for Blasphemous 2 is a dream come true. The prospect of wielding the iconic Mea Culpa sword once more has me eagerly anticipating Halloween, as if the spooky holiday wasn’t already exciting enough!
The long-awaited Downloadable Content (DLC) for “Blasphemous 2” has finally been unveiled by The Game Kitchen and Team17, following hints they subtly dropped earlier. A notable feature in the sneak peek of upcoming content was the distinctive design of the Mea Culpa sword, with its ornate hilt adorned with effigies. What’s striking about this DLC is not just the return of the Mea Culpa sword, but also the new role it will play in “Blasphemous 2”. The main attraction of the upcoming “Blasphemous 2” DLC titled Mea Culpa lies in players being able to reclaim the original game’s sword; however, this expansion and accompanying True Torment update offer much more than that.
Everything Revealed About Blasphemous 2’s Mea Culpa Expansion
Blasphemous 2’s Mea Culpa DLC includes:
- Two new areas.
- Two new bosses.
- Four new quests.
- An alternative ending for the Penitent One.
- A new (yet familiar) weapon and ability.
- New prayers.
- New Rosary beads.
- New achievements.
- Nine new OST tracks by Carlos Viola.
The sequel to “Blasphemous,” titled “Blasphemous 2,” seems to be skillfully expanding upon its strengths, pulling at all the right strings for a substantial addition. What’s intriguing is that the Mea Culpa DLC primarily focuses on two new bosses, which could indicate a relatively brief playtime duration. It’s worth noting that the Stir of Dawn, Strife and Ruin, and Wounds of Eventide DLCs for the original “Blasphemous” game are also relatively compact, typically ranging from three to four hours in length—with some variations depending on the players’ abilities and the difficulty level of each DLC.
While it’s not definitively known if Blasphemous 2 will follow a similar pattern of DLCs and updates in the future, the possibility exists given the limited scope of the Mea Culpa expansion. Notably, the Steam FAQ for Blasphemous 2‘s DLC and updates states that they will increase the explorable area by approximately 40% and could take around 2-3 hours for the story and 6-8 hours for complete exploration.
It’ll be intriguing to observe the contrast between Mea Culpa and Blasphemous 2’s endings, namely Veredicto, Sarmiento & Centella, and Ruego Al Alba, once they are released. This comparison could involve examining whether players still favor the straightforward charm of the original’s sword over the sequel’s weapon options when the DLC becomes available on Halloween.
Everything Revealed About Blasphemous 2’s True Torment Update
Simultaneously, a substantial update titled “The True Torment of Blasphemous 2” will be rolled out, encompassing the following:
- Expanded zones: Choir of Thorns, Sunken Cathedral, and Basilica of Ancient Faces have all been reforged with new challenges to explore and conquer.
- New connecting zones: Quicker traversal between previously explored areas.
- A new challenge: the Labyrinth of Tides presents a new challenge for this ready to face it.
- New Game +: Totally adjustable difficulty options from stronger enemies to deadlier spikes and lethal falls.
- New enemies.
- A host of upgrades for the Penitent One, quality-of-life improvements, and new achievements.
The “New Game Plus” feature offers a welcome return for gamers, allowing them to restart the sequel with numerous enhancements and bonuses. At present, specifics about these improvements are being held under wraps.
It’s great news that players can directly access the Mea Culpa DLC without needing to start a New Game Plus, and even better, the True Torment update is free! This means that on October 31, gamers will still receive a substantial amount of content. If the expansion proves as challenging as recent DLCs for Blasphemous or other Soulslike games, players might want to brush up on their skills in the 2D side-scrolling Metroidvania before they revisit Cvstodia’s captivating dark fantasy world.
