Author: Adam May 03,2025

Fans of the hit roguelike Dead Cells on mobile have some bittersweet news. Developer Playdigious has announced a delay for the final two free updates, Clean Cut and The End is Near. However, there's a silver lining: these updates are now set to launch on February 18th, 2025, for both Android and iOS. Let's dive into what these updates bring to the table.

Given that the console and PC versions of Dead Cells have already received these updates, we have a clear picture of what's in store. Clean Cut introduces two exciting new weapons: the Survival-focused Sewing Scissors and the Brutality-focused Giant Comb. Additionally, a new NPC, the Tailor's Daughter, allows players to customize their character's appearance freely. This update promises a lot more to enhance your gameplay experience.

The End is Near, despite its foreboding title, adds a host of new mobs including the Sore Loser, Curser, and Doom Bringer. Alongside these, you'll find new skills and colorblind mutations like Demonic Strength, which increases your damage by 30% when cursed, with an additional 1% per Curse stack.

All this and a lot of cells tooPlaydigious has consistently enriched Dead Cells with free content over the years, earning them well-deserved praise. While the end of these free updates marks a shift as the studio focuses on new projects, their commitment to the game has been remarkable.

Mark your calendars for February 18th, 2025, when both Clean Cut and The End is Near will arrive on mobile platforms. In the meantime, if you're new to Dead Cells, welcome aboard!
