Dead Cells' Fatal Falls DLC launches with a new anime style short

Dead Cells' second paid DLC has arrived, bringing with it a flying sword friend and a charming new animated short to introduce us all to the new biomes and characters arriving in this update. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll want to play the new Fatal Falls DLC.

The clip begins with our hero, The Beheaded, frolicking (and murdering) through the sunlit countryside with his new friend, a little grub wearing a cute bow. This idyllic situation is short-lived, unfortunately, as the grub jumps onto a mushroom cap that also happens to be a landmine. The Beheaded is heartbroken, and can't even find joy in slicing up the enemy mooks who assault him as he trudges along. He doesn't even notice the arrival of a curious onlooker, a little sword with bat wings that develops a massive crush on him.

That's until The Beheaded comes across the one responsible for planting the explosive mushrooms: our new nemesis, The Scarecrow. Realising he needs assistance, The Beheaded finally acknowledges the loyal little bat-sword.
