• New Hero “Hunter of the Beast”: A feral -new playable character, the Hunter, joins the fray, bringing unique skills and combat style to the battlefield.
• Nightmare More x16: For seasoned adventurers seeking the ultimate test, 16 levels of challenging Nightmare difficulty will unlock after completing the base game. These endgame challenges feature entirely new enemy patterns and systems, not just increased enemy numbers.

The release date trailer also highlights some important features:

“Dragon is Dead represents a meaningful return to development for us through our internal subsidiary, TeamSuneat. This is a raw, unfiltered & gritty project built with heart by a small but fiercely talented team,” Michael Yum, CEO of PM Studios, said. “What they’ve achieved — from the precision of the combat to the scale of the systems — is a testament to their vision, resilience, and creative fire. It captures the kind of bold creativity we’re excited to explore more of. And, we’re incredibly proud to share it with players as a new chapter in our in-house development journey.”
