You can watch the Early Access trailer for Penny Blood: Hellhound here:

You’ll be able to play as the Axeman for the first time, which means that there will be five playable characters now. The Daidouji Temple area will also become accessible, which means a new boss, as well as new enemies, to fight. There will also be several new NPCs, with two of them being specific to the dungeon. Once you befriend them, they will fight alongside you in the dungeon. The Early Access build also has the Accessory System, as well as the Gambling System (Psycho Hanafuda). This system has the potential of netting you a lot of currency, but of course, there’s always the chance of losing it all.

Penny Blood: Hellhound is the roguelike hack ‘n’ slash spin-off of Penny Blood, which is still in development. It serves as a prequel, and gives players a sneak peek at some of the enemies they’ll be fighting against in Penny Blood proper. Previously, Hellhound was only available as a closed beta, and you can read our review of it here.

Penny Blood: Hellhound is readily available on Windows PC via Steam and it’s Early Access.
