On May 14th, 2026, Blades of Fire will receive a major update, a year after its initial release in May 2025. The game’s developer, MercurySteam, hopes this update will reignite player interest in the action RPG.
This game didn’t initially get much attention. Reviews were mixed when it first came out, but it gradually gained positive feedback over time. Many people think it deserves more recognition.
Blades of Fire didn’t sell as well as expected, and its publisher, 505 Games, noted that launching new games is becoming more challenging. That’s why it’s good to see the game still receiving updates and support.
The game is getting a big update, version 2.0, with lots of new content. This includes a New Game+ mode where you can replay boss fights to earn extra rewards, a new difficulty setting, and smoother animations.
If you’re a fan of Blades of Fire, you should definitely look out for version 2.0 when it releases in a few months.
Here’s a rundown of the update’s features via the official press release:
New Contents
- New Game Plus
- New Challenge Level: Titanium
