For last-gen gamers wanting to play The Game Kitchen’s 2D Soulslike Blasphemous II, you won’t have to wait much longer. Publisher Team17 and The Game Kitchen have announced that Blasphemous II will be arriving on the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on November 2nd. The news comes alongside a new Accolades trailer, just in case you were still on the fence about plunking down some coin for the sequel to the 2019 original.

Following a newly reawakened Penitent One, Blasphemous II takes place after the events of Blasphemous’ “Wounds of Eventide” DLC, and thrusts players back into an endless cycle of life, death, and resurrection as they face monstrous enemies and inconceivable challenges to halt the prophetic birth of a new Child of the Miracle. Featuring three unique weapons to acquire and master, and an enhanced skillset to choose from, players will have to use these new tools to survive and explore a land hell bent on sending them back to the grave as they collect scattered pieces of lore, unpick long forgotten secrets, and avoid deaths final embrace.

Blasphemous II is currently available on the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. Check out Reyna’s review here.

Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.

With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.

The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.

In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.

More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
