Slay The Spire 2′s Latest Update Adds A New Character, Two New Modes, And A Byrdpip Evolution!

After months without any sort of new content, we finally have a new Slay the Spire 2 update—and, well, I see what took ‘em so goddamn long, because I’m not even sure where to start with this one.

Perhaps it’s best to start with the star of the show: the Fool, Slay the Spire 2’s sixth playable character. She’s certainly unique, even by Slay the Spire standards. Her main gimmick revolves around her Arrow which, when fired using specific cards, will inflict the Impaled status on the enemy.

When an enemy is Impaled, you have to hit them three times (or kill them) to get your Arrow back, and cards that require an Arrow won’t work until you do. I’ve only played about three games with the character so far, but they seem absurdly busted. However, that’s why this is a beta patch, and the important thing is that the Fool is super fun—sort of reminiscent of the Hermit from Slay the Spire: Downfall, actually.

And hey, spoiler alert—the Hermit is now in Slay the Spire 2! Sort of. One of the Fool’s other unique gimmicks is that they can generate Tarot Cards of other Slay the Spire characters, including both the Hermit and the Watcher. Does this mean both of these characters are coming to Slay the Spire 2? Well, Mega Crit describes the Fool as the “first new character for Early Access” in the patch notes, so maybe?
