It is a pretty big milestone for them and to help celebrate they have announced that some DLC is on the way.

While the mobile version of Moonlighter is currently in development, and numerous free updates have landed in the game on all platforms, the designers are also working on a brand new addition to expand the Moonlighter universe. Planning for a Summer 2019 release and coming to all platforms, Between Dimensions is an all-new DLC set to make Moonlighter more exciting than ever.

New Monsters - Expand the main experience by filling current dungeons with new creatures.

The Interdimensional Dungeon - An all-new dungeon swarming with powerful new mini-bosses.

New Gear - Adventurers can pick up a plethora of new weapons, armors, shop items, and rings.

Trick Weapons - Never before seen Trick Weapons will grant players special powers, but they might come with a price, Twisting Moonlighter's mechanics in new and inventive ways, these new weapons will punish your enemies, but might just be a little err... tricky at the same time.

In celebration of half a million units sold, Moonlighter is on sale right now for 40% off on Steam and 33% off on the Nintendo eShop in North America. The sale price hits the European eShop on April 11th, 2019.
