Hello little skeletons! As previously teased, today we would like to share new details regarding Skul's new upcoming content.
Before we share any further information, there is an important topic that we must discuss. Four years ago, when we had just begun developing Skul, we launched a crowdfunding campaign. We were pleasantly surprised when numerous future skeletons showed their support and provided us with valuable feedback regarding the development process. It is thanks to these supporters that Skul was successfully released.
During our crowdfunding campaign, we established certain funding goals, and our initial concept for the future Hard Mode was the Demon King Castle Defense. However, as Skul continued to expand, it became clear that Skul needed a more extensive narrative and many new features, and the Demon King Castle Defense was not the best fit for that. Therefore, we came up with a new Hard Mode concept, which later became known as the Dark Mirror update, and we believe it was the right decision. Nevertheless, to honor the promise we made to our loyal Skeletons, we have been working on the Demon King Castle Defense to make it a better fit for Skul's current state.
The Demon King Castle Defense has been revamped and will finally conclude Skul's narrative. The darkness that had been looming over the Land of Harmonia has now invaded the Demon King Castle. Skul fights alongside his demon buddies to defend the castle from the humans who have been blinded by evil.
The Carleon Army launched a surprise invasion on the Demon King's Castle while Skul was wreaking havoc inside the Dark Mirror. Upon destroying the world within the mirror, Skul must now make his way to the Demon King's Castle to put a stop to Carleon's attack.
Skul, along with the help of his fellow demon companions, must continue his journey to confront the one who pushed Skul and Harmonia into despair. The content of Demon Castle Defense includes Skul's efforts to defend the Demon King Castle against the Carleon Empire's invasion, as well as battles against a new final boss. We plan to introduce the Demon King Castle Defense in November and will notify you of the specific update schedules once they are finalized.
In addition to the Demon King Castle Defense, we are also working on a new DLC Skul. We are confident that our players will appreciate and enjoy this new content, and we promise to share more details about it in an upcoming Dev Blog in early October. We hope that you continue to have a great time playing Skul, and we will always strive to take the game to new heights. Thank you for your support, and we wish you a wonderful day!
