The free Demon Hunter expansion for Son of Witch is out on Steam!

Here's the trailer for the biggest update to the game so far

The free Demon Hunter expansion for Son of a Witch is out on Steam featuring a new Lich hero, Hell level, weapons, magic items, pets and more... Here's the trailer as well.

Novi Sad, Serbia - Feb 25, 2021 - The developer Bigosaur is happy to announce that the free Demon Hunter expansion for Son of a Witch is released on Steam for PC, Linux and macOS. The Nintendo Switch release is coming later this Spring.

Son of a Witch is an action roguelike for 1-4 players with focus on weapon and item combos similar to The Binding of Isaac. With optional permadeath, various difficulty levels and cute art, it's perfect to co-op with your SO. The game has been featured by IndieCade, and various European festivals like IndiePrize and GameAccess. The Demon Hunter expansion is the biggest update to the game since it's release. It features:

  • A new class: Lich, who brings the total number of available heroes to 11
  • The Hell level with 7 new enemy types and 4 new bosses
  • 7 new special challenge rooms
  • 7 new weapons, including the Blade of Light which reminds us of a lightsaber
  • 18 new magic items with various new gameplay mechanics
  • 3 new random potion effects
  • 3 new new magic spells
  • 5 new pets, each helping the heroes in a different way
  • 27 new achievements
  • Endless Arena leaderboard
  • various minor improvements and bug fixes
The indie solo-developer behind the project, Milan Babuskov, said: "The new Demon Hunter expansion is free for all the players who own the base game. The base game price will go up mid-March, so make sure you grab it before then if you plan on playing it. Giving this update for free instead of paid DLC is my way to say thanks to all the players who have supported the game so far.
