Katana Zero was one of the independent hits of 2019 and since then the game’s developer, Askiisoft, has been working on the free DLC.
Last February it was revealed that the content would be three times larger than originally anticipated, and now, in a new update to the company’s website, it was revealed that it was “6x” the size initially planned. Here’s what you can expect from this great content:
“That’s a little over half the size of the main game. That means more levels, mechanics, enemies, bosses and story elements intertwined. It’s less like a DLC and more like Katana 1.5.”
Despite the scale, it will still be “at home” (in other words, free). Although development has slowed over the past year, it is now back to normal.
As for when it will arrive, the creator … Justin Stander – I haven’t thought about it yet, but one thing that has been confirmed is that no expand further:
“The short answer is, I don’t know yet. There’s a lot of finished content, but this is a great project and I aspire to the same level of quality and attention as the base game. I still do all the programming and personal design: after all, this is my passion project, but don’t worry, the game is progressing at a healthy pace and the whole team of developers is fully working on the production, or: the plan is defined and now we focus to finish it. “
