SLIME... plush??

For the next 3 weeks ONLY, you can grab this limited edition Makeship Slime Boss doughboi (meaning it's BIG and squishy just like the real, in-game deal) as well as a couple of cute, fuzzy Louse plushies for you to Curl Up with 💞

Once protectors, now you are the Slayers.

A new expansion to Slay the Spire: The Board Game is coming from @contentiongames.bsky.social, based on the iconic community mod Downfall, which sees you take on the role of classic Spire enemies!

An update on Slay the Spire 2's release date for those who haven't read the September Neowsletter.

(Mega Crit and Slay the Spire 2 logos)

Early Access Timeline Update

After a lot of internal discussion, we've made the call to move Slay the Spire 2's Early Access launch to a secret Thursday in March 2026.

We know this isn't the news anyone wanted to hear (ourselves included, we're dying to get this into your hands!) Originally, we were shooting for late 2025, but turns out we were wrong. We need some more time.

There's no single dramatic reason. Some personal life stuff hit the team (everyone's okay!), we kept saying "wouldn't it be cool if..." one too many times, and honestly, the game just needs more polish to meet our standards.

We'll continue to share our regular development updates as we gear up for launch. Thank you to our community for all of your excitement for Slay the Spire 2!

Oh yeah. And don’t blame Silksong.
