Announcement of DLC The Jewel in the Skull.

Using this artifact, you can enter the Ghost World and uncover the truth about Demagrass, the brother of Queen Aurora, whose fate is enshrouded in mystery and intrigue.

Keep an eye out, though! Mardek's ship is not just an iron hulk, but a living nightmare where every step can be your last. Each step will lead you to dangerous traps, monsters, and mad scientists' experiments.
