As a green mass of sentient cells, the player controls a discarded corpse. While exploring a castle on an ever-changing island. Where survival is a precarious and ephemeral state.
Death, however, is only the beginning in this alchemy-afflicted world. It’s just one more opportunity to unlock new weapons and skills. And also discover outlandish areas and plunder hidden secrets.
Motion Twin’s current development of Dead Cells on Early Access is more than one year now. While also taking into account community feedback and requests for new features. While working double the available content by the end of the Early Access period.
