PM Studios and TeamSuneat Unleash Dragon is Dead 1.0 with Brutal New Content

The time has come to face the ultimate challenge. PM Studios and its subsidiary development team, TeamSuneat, have officially released version 1.0 of Dragon is Dead™, the brutal 2D hack-'n'-slash roguelite that’s now fully unleashed on Steam. After a strong Early Access period shaped by player feedback, the game’s final version introduces the most intense content yet culminating in a new region, a savage final boss, and high-risk endgame customization.

Since its early access debut, Dragon is Dead has grown with input from its dedicated community, refining everything from combat mechanics to difficulty tuning. This collaboration helped shape a roguelite that’s been praised for its snappy action, deep build potential, and dangerously addictive replay loop. Now, with version 1.0, the complete vision is here and it’s not pulling any punches.

What’s New in Version 1.0

Players will dive into a climactic showdown as the Guernian clan’s saga collides with the dark ambitions of the Circle of the Black Dawn. This final region pits adventurers against Ashat and his cult of power-hungry worshippers who seek to dominate the world. The challenge peaks with a new final boss, but that’s just the beginning.

Version 1.0 introduces:

  • New Heroine - Hunter of the Beast: A wild, feral fighter joins the roster, armed with savage skills and a brutal combat style.
  • Mythic Gear Tier: A powerful new rarity tier offering game-changing effects for deeper builds.
  • Item Quenching System: Customize your equipment like never before with new upgrade mechanics.
  • Nightmare Mode x16: Sixteen escalating levels of hardcore difficulty for veterans seeking true punishment.
  • Legendary Loot and New Enemies: Face deadly new enemies and hunt for Legendary gear that expands your build options.

About the Game

Dragon is Dead blends fast-paced hack-and-slash gameplay with roguelite progression and deep RPG customization. Players explore procedurally generated dungeons, climb skill trees, gather powerful Artifacts, and battle back against the corruption of the last Dark Dragon, Guernian. Death is only the beginning here—every run refines your strategy and pushes you toward ultimate mastery.

With the full release now live and available to play, there’s never been a better time to jump in, experiment with powerful builds, and slay dragons, zombies and all other types of monsters in style.
