"Dead Cells Development Ends After 7 Years as Devs Shift Focus to New Games"

After seven years since its early access release and five years under the development of Evil Empire, Dead Cells is ending its active development with the upcoming update 35. Evil Empire will no longer be working on the game, freeing up its developers for new projects, while Motion Twin, the original developers, will leave the game as-is after the update. Both studios have exciting new projects in the pipeline, with Motion Twin announcing a new game called Windblown and plans for Dead Cells-related content outside of the game itself.
