Press release:
Gateshead, United Kingdom – 20th June, 2023.
The Sunderland-based (the UK) indie games publisher Coatsink and Vancouver-based (British Columbia, Canada) indie games developer Over The Moon, are today very happy and excited to announce that they have just released the “The Rise of Evil” DLC for their satirical action-adventure game “The Last Hero of Nostalgaia” (the said DLC is available right now for PC via Steam and consoles via digital stores for $24.99 / €24.99 / £19.99).

The Rise Of Evil, a brand new DLC for The Last Hero of Nostalgaia, also launches today on PC, Xbox, PlayStation and Switch, priced at $7.99 / €7.99 / £6.69. For brand new players who want the complete experience, the base game and DLC have also been packaged together with The Last Hero of Nostalgaia – Deluxe Edition, priced at $29.99 / €29.99 / £24.99, also available today.

The Rise of Evil DLC adds two new areas to the game: Easymaker’s Retreat and The Builder’s Sanctuary. Your new quest will also require you to defeat three new bosses that will put the skills and abilities you’ve acquired through the main game to the ultimate test.

The Last Hero of Nostalgaia is set in a world that celebrates videogame nostalgia, blending the complex systems and dark aesthetics of its Souls-like inspirations with a reference-packed comedy tale told by a cynical narrator never short of a sharp putdown.

The game delivers tough but fair combat, challenging bosses for you to overcome, engaging narrative mechanics rich in lore and a shockingly-rich character creator (kind of). The Last Hero of Nostalgaia draws on the best of the games that inspired it while delivering a humorous and innovative twist on the genre, along with a boatload of nudge and wink references that will delight videogame fans.

The Last Hero of Nostalgaia offers players the chance to enjoy tackling the game’s tough battles and laugh at its funny moments with friends thanks to an online co-op mode. Whether alone or alongside a friend, it’s time to jump into the world of videogames and find what’s causing the blight of pixelation causing it to collapse backwards in time.

Nostalgaia is fading away to nothing: even the memories of our proud, cherished video games are being lost. Now, with our fidelity all but gone, at the very brink of extinction, hope emerges to fight back.

“I’m really happy to finally bring The Last Hero of Nostalgaia to PlayStation and Switch players,” said Over the Moon CEO Jon Warner.

“For those who have already enjoyed the game on PC and Xbox, I hope you’re looking forward to jumping back in and taking on the new challenges we’ve put together for The Rise of Evil DLC!”
