“The Third Sin” Update for Blasphemous II Is Now Available
Publisher Team17 and developer The Game Kitchen have released a major free expansion for the side-scrolling action platformer Blasphemous II titled The Third Sin.
This update launched on June 6, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC, while the PlayStation 4 version is scheduled to arrive at a later date.
The narrative expansion centers on a massive gothic castle that is equivalent to one quarter of the total size of the original game and the Mea Culpa world maps combined.
This foreboding location was once a refuge for the nobility of Cvstodia before it was ravaged by the supernatural forces of The Miracle.
Players can now equip a new blade-tipped whip to fight through meandering halls and cavernous libraries filled with dangerous enemies.
The update introduces three Familiars, which are magical entities that accompany the Penitent One to provide support in both combat and navigation.
A new gallery feature has been added to allow players to replay encounters with previous bosses at their leisure.
The Third Sin also includes five new trophies, unlockable outfits, and six additional music tracks composed by series veteran Carlos Viola.
