While the Belpaese family continues their endless hunt against Bisconte Draculó’s hordes, this patch provides some much-needed utility for players who want to start fresh without losing hundreds of hours of progress. Alongside the save slots, the update introduces a new stage called The Lycaeum, fresh characters, and a series of weapon buffs that aim to shake up the current survival meta.
The bigger shockwave, however, is the announcement of a massive new expansion: Legacy of the Bloodmoon. Slated for a Summer 2026 release, this DLC is staying true to Poncle's player-first pricing model at just $0.99 USD. While details on the specific monsters are still under wraps, the 'Bloodmoon' title suggests a deepening of the gothic lore that has defined the game since its 2021 debut.
In a surprising move, Poncle is also looking backward to improve existing content. The original Legacy of the Moonspell expansion is getting a 'content buff,' adding seven new unlockable pieces of content to the pack. This is a rare move in the industry—effectively giving more value to a years-old purchase while simultaneously lowering its base price.
Beyond the game itself, Poncle is expanding its reach. The studio announced the opening of poncle Japan and the introduction of 'Survivaton,' a new internal label dedicated to the growing sub-genre of 'bullet heaven' or 'VS-like' games. While Steam players can jump into version 1.15 immediately, those on Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and mobile devices can expect the update to roll out by the end of June 2026.
