Fyi if you have a Netflix sub, gamepad for your phone, dead cells offered by Netflix is free and gives you all dlc. Playing on my fold 5 and it's great

My understanding is that the entire game and DLC is on the cartridge, but it's a prior version. So if you want the latest update, the game will prompt you to do a complete download of everything, not just the update files

I picked it up from Best Buy when they had a deal, full game is on the cart and can be enjoyed as is. Updates are available though.

I loved dead cells. I really love castlevania.

This didn't quite work for me. I was super excited for it, and a little let down.

You can't get right to the castlevania content anyway, it's a decent run from the beginning of the game, roguelike style, so be aware of that.

If, somehow, you've not heard of Dead Cells, Girlfriend Reviews said:

"diarrhea Christmas lights"

Which, is accurate. I loved playing it on the Switch since I can play it whenever in portable mode and no fighting for the TV.

Honestly, I was kinda being a smartass as in get the version for the console you have 😮 Frankly though, I'm thinking both versions are basically of equal quality. If it were me, I'd buy on the Switch because I've seen what past gen Nintendo games tend to do price wise. In terms of experience though, I haven't heard of one being better than the other.

I have ~150 hours on this game, still haven't completed all achievements yet.

If you like Metroidvanias with a Roguelite aspect and are a completionist like me, you will definitely enjoy this game and find it challenging.

Thanks for the reply. Maybe that's why I didn't hear much about it since its announcement. Kind of came and went. I'll pass. thx

Thanks op, picked one up. Typically, I like these retro indies digital so I can jump in/out quickly, but can't resist at this price and the cover art is cool. Good find.
