Indie developer and publisher Onion Games released his own RPG dungeon crawler, Dandy Dungeon - Legend of Brave Yamada -, earlier last year in November 2019. Players take the role of the Brave Yamada as he clears out dungeons, defeats monsters, and collects valuable loot along the way. The studio recently revealed the title's upcoming major update, with two iconic Japanese personnel in the gaming industry joining in to lend their expertise.
Dubbed as Dandy Dungeon II: The Phantom Bride, the update is large enough to warrant renaming the title and acting as a sequel. It almost doubles the initial size of the game's content, adding "more than 90 dungeon types, over 560 weapons & armor and 260+ monsters." Not only that, but Final Fantasy composer Nobuo Uematsu and Touhou Project’s Zun also helped produce "over 130 original tracks of new music."
Onion Games already set up a countdown to The Phantom Bride update's release on April 2nd for those who are counting the seconds ticking by till they get their hands on all this new content. Once it goes live, Dandy Dungeon II will have its price slashed by 30%, bringing it down to $13.29 / €11.19 / £10.14 respective of the region on the same date the update goes live.
Dandy Dungeon II: The Phantom Bride update is scheduled to go live on 12:00 AM on April 2nd, 2020 JST for PC and Nintendo Switch. Make sure to check out the trailer below for a sneak peak on the plethora of new content and additions coming to the title.
