PATCH 0.4.3 - CURSES UPDATE
The Citadel has become even more dangerous.
This update introduces one of the biggest progression systems added to Deified so far: Curses. Unlock them by completing runs, enable them before starting a new run to increase the challenge, earn greater rewards and unlock additional skill points.
Alongside this new system, we've continued improving combat balance, reworked several Relics and synergies, added new progression features and fixed numerous bugs.
As always, thank you for all your feedback and support throughout Early Access!

• Unlock Curses by winning runs
• Activate Curses before starting a run to increase difficulty and rewards
