Celeste's upcoming Chapter 9 free DLC was originally scheduled for
April of this year. Unfortunately April has come and gone but the DLC is still on the way according to the developer, Matt Thorson.
Thorson also said yesterday in a
tweet that, "Celeste Chapter 9 has over 100 levels!". This puts the length of the DLC roughly in line with the length of the final chapter in the original game. Not bad for a free update.
Celeste was released in January, 2018 and quickly received glowing reviews. In the current market over-saturated with pixel platformers, Celeste separated itself with its likable and relatable characters. It also gets the difficulty just right, with plenty of extra levels, called B-Sides, for those looking for extra punishment.
