Dead Cells launched in early access in 2017, and developer Motion Twin's brilliant mashup of roguelite and Metroidvania quickly found an audience. It was an excellent game when it launched, but its subsequent support through the early access period and beyond has been exceptional, and mostly free to boot. Most recently we were treated to the wonderful Castlevania DLC and there's no sign of slowing down with its current developer Evil Empire.
That studio has now announced that Dead Cells has sold over 10 million copies, which is a remarkable milestone for an indie title like this to hit. That's not all on PC of course, with the the game being ported to consoles and mobile, but it says everything about the quality of Dead Cells and its multitude of free and paid updates. I still load this up every so often and every time have a blast, and there's now so much stuff in there it's a delight to see what wacky combinations of buffs and weapons each run turns up.
