Celeste’s long-awaited free DLC update, titled Chapter 9: Farewell, finally has a release date! It’ll be launching on all platforms (although there’s apparently potential for slippage on Xbox One) next Monday, 9th September.
Celeste’s free DLC update was initially unveiled last December, when creator Matt Thorson revealed that the team would be releasing a set of “very hard” new levels in early 2019 to celebrate the critically acclaimed platformer having sold 500,000 copies.
Chapter 9: Farewell, which, to reiterate, is free to all owners of the base game, is a new story chapter containing over 100 new levels (making for over 800 in total, if you’re keeping track), incorporating a selection of new mechanics. There are no B- or C-Sides this time around, but it does bring 40 minutes of brand-new music, courtesy of Lena Raine.
