SteamWorld Quest's free 2.0 update adds New Game Plus and more tomorrow

SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech

Lead a party of aspiring heroes through a beautifully hand-drawn world and intense battles using only your wits and a handful of cards. Take on whatever threat comes your way by crafting your own deck choosing from over 100 unique punch-cards!

Developer Image & Form's excellent fantasy card-battler SteamWorld Quest will get a little bit quest-ier tomorrow, 8th August, thanks to its free 2.0 update, launching on Switch and PC.

SteamWorld Quest 2.0's main addition is a New Game Plus mode, which unlocks after completing the story campaign. Upon starting New Games Plus, the vast majority of non-story progress - including previously gathered cards and items - will be immediately available.

Also included as part of New Game Plus is the optional super-hard Legend Remix difficulty setting. According to Image & Form, this doesn't just ramp up the challenge, it throws in new gameplay twists to keep players on their toes.
