Neowiz (co-representatives Kim Seung-Cheol and Bae Tae-Geun) announced on the 13th that they had carried out a large-scale update, ‘Black Mirror,’ of the 2D action game ‘Skul: The Hero Slayer’ developed by South Four Games (CEO Park Sang-woo).
The largest ‘Black Mirror’ update since the game service is on the game distribution platform ‘Steam,’ ‘Epic Games Store,’ and ‘MS Game Pass PC version.’
The biggest change through the update is the addition of ‘Black Mirror’ content. It is an expansion pack of Skull, which consists of a new narrative and content, and provides the pleasure of following the story, the appearance of new enemies, and the pleasure of defeating more powerful enemies. In addition, stage balance, such as increased NPC appearance rates and map changes, and skull balancing, such as an increase in the tackle-type dash effect, were also performed.
Along with this, changes were made to the attack tendencies and damage increase and decrease of general enemies such as ‘Flower Ent’ and ‘Carleon Assassin,’ adventurers, and the boss of ‘Leiana Sister.’ Item effects have been increased, enemy health decreased in normal (normal) mode, health recovery opportunities increased, and goods supply and demand for permanent growth increased.
In addition, changes were made to the reward method, such as obtaining items by searching the pockets of defeated adventurers, and bugs were also fixed to maximize immersion in the game.
To commemorate the ‘Black Mirror’ update, Neowiz applies an unprecedented discount rate on Steam until the 27th, sells Skulls at up to 50% discount, and holds an event called ‘Up to 80% off 9 types of Neowiz indie games’.
‘Skull,’ developed by South Fore Games, a Korean developer, is a 2D rogue-lite action platformer game depicting the adventures of a skeleton that can transform by changing its head. With cute dot graphics and fast-paced cool action, it is gaining popularity at home and abroad.
