Dead Cells Update 1.39 Patch Notes – Sep 7, 2022

Dead Cells update 1.39 is rolling out on PS4, Xbox One and PC (Steam). According to the official Dead Cell patch notes, the latest update added a new weapon Panchaku, a new outfit and much more. Apart from this, today’s Dead Cells patch 1.39 also includes stability fixes.

Previously, a major ‘Breaking Barriers’ update added loads of new options to improve accessibility, such as adjustable font type & size, input customization and individual adjustment of sound effect volumes.

Unfortunately, since the last patch, players are facing a number of problems with the game. Today’s Dead Cells version 1.39 will fix a few of these issues.

Dead Cells Update 1.39 Patch Notes – September 7, 2022

  • New Weapon: Panchaku

    Two pans tied together by a string, the perfect DIY weapon to tear through the island!

    Crits on enemies facing you.

  • New Outfit: Bobby Outfit

    A new outfit inspired by the Beheaded’s design from the Dead Cells trailers, flaming head included.

  • New crossover content with Soul Knight:

    Those features were already in the Mobile version of Dead Cells, we just brought them over to PC and Consoles!

    Weapon: Magic Bow, fires 5 slowly-moving, homing arrows.

    Outfit: Knight’s Outfit, inspired by Soul Knight’s character of the same name.

    New lore room in Prisoners’ Quarters to unlock the blueprints!

  • New Custom Mode Option: Legendaries Only

    Turns all weapons found in the run into legendary ones.

  • You can now pet your Pets when you are in transition areas, by holding interact next to them!
  • We completely reworked how Legendary Weapons work!

    – Removed the double stat scaling, but kept the colorless status. They now scale on your highest stat only. It was mostly overpowered, rather counter-intuitive (you had to split stats whereas you should do the opposite in non-legendary situations) and not really fun (just adding more damage on top of your damage).

    – Added a unique Legendary Affix to all Weapons. A Legendary Weapon will always have its Legendary Affix on top of its normal rolled ones. You can find a list of all the Weapons and their respective Legendary Affix below.

  • Added new Better Secrets Legendary Affix, which upgrades the quality of secrets found in the ground or walls by one tier.
  • Added new True Evil Legendary Affix, deals triple damage but locks out the rest of the loadout as long as the weapon is equipped.
  • Added new God Slayer Legendary Affix, increases the crit multiplier of the weapon’s last hit.
  • Added new Death Root Legendary Affix, roots nearby enemies on kill.
  • Added new Mega Crit Legendary Affix, increases crit damage by 75%.
