Blasphemous & Blasphemous 2 Half-Price: Dive Into Cvstodia’s Dark World Now!

Blasphemous, the twisted and intense Metroidvania game from The Game Kitchen, and its acclaimed sequel, Blasphemous 2, are currently available at heavily reduced prices in the ongoing publisher sale by Team 17. If dark aesthetics, brutal combat, and unique storytelling sound like your cup of tea, now is the perfect time to dive into this grim world of Cvstodia.

For those who haven't ventured into the hauntingly beautiful yet grotesque world of Cvstodia, Blasphemous is a gritty action-platformer that's wrapped deeply in religious symbolism and twisted imagery reminiscent of medieval horror. At an incredible discount of 90%, the first game is available now for just $2.50 (£2.00). This price point makes it an absolute no-brainer, as players can immerse themselves in hours of intense gameplay filled with epic boss battles, chilling NPC interactions, and atmospheric exploration, all for less than the price of your typical snack.

This isn't your ordinary adventure—Blasphemous is known for its unsettling creatures, eerie worlds, and brutally punishing gameplay. Every corner turned in Cvstodia reveals another fascinatingly disturbing sight or grotesque enemy. The game's unique visual style draws from gothic iconography in ways that will undoubtedly linger in the mind long after putting down the controller. It's the sort of experience you'll want to discuss, dissect, and share with friends long after you've cleared your save file.

As Callum Agnew rightly pointed out at the game's original release, there's an undeniable satisfaction derived from pushing through its flaws for the disturbing spectacle and intriguing lore made available. Sure, the combat might occasionally feel stiff due to its strict adherence to a two-dimensional style, and some platforming sections might admittedly punish even seasoned gamers. Yet, these elements rarely hold the experience back in meaningful ways—they add, quite literally, to the pain-pleasure dynamic the game so expertly crafts.

If you're someone who enjoys the intricate worlds of Souls-like titles or the expansive exploration capacities of classic Metroidvania games, Blasphemous will scratch an itch you might not even realize you had. With deep branching pathways, richly hidden lore, and countless secrets sprinkled throughout a haunting setting, the low cost currently on offer feels like taking candy from an especially horrifying baby.

And this fantastic deal doesn't stop with the original title. If you've already conquered Cvstodia and are hungry for more, Blasphemous 2 is also enjoying a tempting 50% discount. Now priced at $15 (£11.24), for fans of the original, this presents an attractive opportunity to continue your journey through these perilous lands. Early feedback from fans suggests that Blasphemous 2 is essentially an upgrade in almost every way—a smoother combat system, a variety of innovative boss encounters, and an expansion of the game's dark universe all make it well worth exploring, especially at its current reduced price.

Furthermore, Blasphemous 2 expanded substantially last year with a combination of free updates and paid expansions, deepening the experience and enhancing replayability. The game now includes a significant new game plus mode, pushing total content to staggering norms—rewarding fans, both veterans and newcomers, with ample reasons to return.

It's very rare to see games as uniquely impactful and artistically daring available at such dramatically lowered prices. Even if you're new to Metroidvania-style adventure games or just looking for something profoundly memorable and distinct, the Blasphemous series is easy to recommend at such affordable costs. Don't wait too long, as the Team 17 sale discounts will only last until Tuesday—after that, these amazing titles climb back up to full price.

If you've been contemplating taking the plunge into Cvstodia's frightful yet captivating charms, there's never been a better moment to begin your dark pilgrimage. Whether you're dipping your feet into these gothic waters for the first time or you're a seasoned Penitent One eager for more, this incredible deal ensures you'll get plenty of horror, thrills, and challenges for very little investment. Don't miss out!
