Evaluation

Blood Dungeon launched on August 25, 2026. Within the first week, the developer (Mark at Messhof) shipped two bug-fix hotfixes and then a more substantial balance and feature patch on September 3, 2026. In that September 3 post, the developer explicitly stated: "I was always planning on making updates to the game to add content and address any issues as they come up." The post also ended with "More soon..." — a clear signal of continued development intent. The patch itself already added new content (drop site quests, new hub NPCs, a new shop item), reinforcing that this isn't just maintenance patching. The only DLC listed is the already-released soundtrack. No specific future DLC has been announced, but the developer's own words confirm that additional content updates are planned.
Evidence

About this game

Blood Dungeon is a feverish bullet heaven platformer from the creators of Nidhogg. 

Run, jump, and climb to avoid hordes of monsters. Duck and weave between enemies. Scramble up ladders, across grates, and over chains. Walls, ceilings, and even the watery depths are your domains to master.

The dungeons contain over 100 different enemies to kill. Bats. Centaurs. Exploding Eyeballs. Some fly through walls while others walk, stick, or bounce on them. Learn their movements, outsmart them, and harvest their blood.

Increase your blood level to upgrade your build, or find chests hidden throughout the arenas.

Circulate around the various drop sites to supplement your arsenal and master each arena.

Visit the Dogmancer to pay the bone toll and unlock permanent upgrades.

Unlock nine bunkmates, each with their own weapon of choice and movement perks. Spin climbable webs as Leggy, take flight with Bug, or speed through the Dungeons as only a Skinja can. Experiment with them all!
