A Big ‘Goblin Sword’ Content Update is Coming Soon

TouchArcade Rating:

If you’re a fan of platforming games like I am, then you’re no doubt familiar with the excellent action platformer Goblin Sword ($1.99) from Gelato Games. Launching just about a year ago, Goblin Sword captured plenty of gamers’ hearts with its fantastic pixel visuals and superb virtual controls. There was even some light RPG elements involved, and the entire production earned an easy 5 stars in our review. Several month down the road, in February of this year, a huge version 1.5 content update arrived for Goblin Sword adding in 16 new levels in a new chapter titled The Lost City, which also featured new enemies, new boss fights, new weapons and more. Now, as announced in our forums, Gelato is back with another huge Goblin Sword update. Here’s a couple of screens from it!

The content update will add a new chapter called The Shadow Temple which will add another 16 new levels to the game. Like the previous update, there will also be new enemies, 2 new bosses, and new equipment. Also like the last update, you’ll have to have beaten the previous content to unlock the new stuff. However, as people tend to add and remove games from their devices pretty often, and Goblin Sword doesn’t currently support iCloud saving, Gelato is implementing a passcode system that will let you enter a code to get to the new portion of the game, even if your previous save data is gone. The best part is the Shadow Temple update has already been submitted to Apple, and should hopefully arrive within a week or so. We’ll give you a heads up when it hits.
