GetsuFumaDenAugust 20 major update detailed
Konami launched on August 20, just now, a major update forGetsuFumaDen: Undying Moon, adding the Subspace Citadel stage. An ancient castle specifically designed to keep outsiders at bay, with many traps and tricks. This is a new challenging stage awaiting rogue-lite fans.
The Subspace Citadel also includes a brand new boss, Daidarabotchi. It’s a possessed being with a body mightier than a mountain. Players will face Daidarabotchi if they survive exploring through the Subspace Citadel, defeating new enemies Tenaga-Ashinaga and Shishi Gashira.
As always, all enemies are inspired by Japanese folklore and mythology. A Daidarabotchi is a gigantic Yokai with dark skin and a long tongue. Ashinaga and Tenaga are two Yokai always paired together, whose names literally mean “long legs” and “long arms” in Japanese. Lastly, Shishigashira is a type of Bonsai.
