Quite a bit has happened since Children of Morta released back in September. Not only has one free content update gone live, but now we see a second.
New Children of Morta Trailer
Children of Morta sets itself apart from the rest of the procedurally-generated dungeon crawlers in one way: intimate narrative. As you play, more scenes play out, revealing more and more about the Bergson family and the circumstances they have wound up in. Between dungeon runs, little nuggets of narrative play out windows of the family. My first playthrough yielded me wanting more, simply because the delivery of the Bergson family was so captivating.
That is where this second content update comes in. Named “Setting Sun Inn,” this new batch of gameplay offers some wonderful replayability and a handful of hotfixes as well. The most notable of these has to be New Game Plus mode, but that’s far from everything:
- New Game Plus mode where players keep previously unlocked characters, skill tree progress, resources, Ben’s workshop and Book of Rea upgrades, all while playing through even more challenging content
- 20 new cutscenes
- 8 new Home Interactive Events to liven up the Bergson family home
- 26 new Home Idle Activities to keep the Bergsons occupied
- 14 new Family Events and Quests in the Dungeons
- 3 new Side Quest Traits
Take a look at the trailer below. What do you think of the new content? If you’re on the fence about the game, be sure to check out our official review of Children of Morta.
