Penny Blood: Hellbound Early Access Update 2 Adds Online Multiplayer

Studio Wildrose announced that we will see new Penny Blood: Hellbound content soon, as the roguelite title is getting Early Access Update 2 on August 8, 2024. It took to Kickstarter to discuss all of the new elements that will show up after the patch arrives, with online multiplayer being a big addition.

The update is designed to offer more reasons to explore both alone and with others. A fourth area will be added alongside new weapons for every playable character. Studio Wildrose also confirmed the game will also be receiving an online multiplayer mode, but didn’t detail how it might work. New quests, enemies and NPCs, and blood-surfing functionality for the ranged characters is also on the way.

The update from Studio Wildrose included an apology for the delay in the full 1.0 release of Penny Blood: Hellbound. It was originally supposed to appear in Summer 2024. The note stated that the team is working to address the issues brought up in player feedback, with major bug fixes on the way. The full list of changes will be made available on the official Discord. The developer also stated the plan is to have the full release out by early Fall 2024.

Penny Blood: Hellbound is now available in Early Access on Steam for PCs. Penny Blood is slated for a 2025 release for the PC, Xbox Series X/S, and the Playstation 5.
