Belgian indie studio Bolt Blaster Games has announced that the hit co-op bullet heaven roguelite The Spell Brigade will launch its full 1.0 release on Steam and will be spellblasting its way onto PlayStation 5 on April 29th, 2026. After selling over one million copies during Early Access and earning a “Very Positive” rating across 13,000+ Steam reviews, the 4-player co-op spellslinger roguelite is preparing its biggest update yet.
What’s New in the Full Release?
New Foes! – The update introduces new enemies and challenges, including resource-stealing thieves, powerful elite variants that act as mini-bosses, and a brand-new boss encounter.
Improved Progression! – A new Ascension system lets players reset their wizard rank in exchange for upgraded badges, while optional difficulty modifiers add challenge for those seeking a tougher experience and faster rank gains. As their reward, players will unlock secret outfits that alter each wizard’s starting spell, opening up new playstyles and build possibilities.
New OST! – The update is further enhanced by an original soundtrack from Grammy-winning composer Austin Wintory, known for his amazing work on famous games like Journey, ABZÛ, Assassin’s Creed, Hades II, and more. He composed an epic soundtrack for The Spell Brigade, with tracks for every Realm and Boss Battle.
A New Wizard! – Perhaps the most welcome surprise, the update also rings in the 15th playable wizard to the roster!
