Team Ladybug have released the big final update for their retro-inspired Metroidvania, Record of Lodoss War-Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth-.
As previously reported, the game is based on the Japanese fantasy novels of the late 1980s (and in turn; manga, anime, video games, and more). High Elf Deedlit has awoken in a mysterious labyrinth, and the Gray Witch therein offers her whatever she desires, as long as she swears loyalty to her. Refusing, Deedlit heads deeper into the strange and warping dungeon; seeing old friends and foes alike.
This update adds 25 new Steam Achievements, a boss rush mode, a bestiary and image guide, and a New Game+ mode. The latter also provides five potential modifiers to up the challenge, such as keeping Deedlit locked at level 1, or 1 HP mode. You can read more about the update here.
You can find the rundown (via Steam) below:
