Total sales of the original Blasphemous have exceeded 5 million copies

Independent Spanish studio The Game Kitchen boasted an eye‑catching milestone — their "Blasphemous" Metroidvania has shifted 5 million copies since launch, according to the team. Small studio, big number.

Sales of Blasphemous have exceeded 5 million copies.

We are deeply grateful to every Penitent who embraced the suffering and walked their path through the lands of Custodia.

To mark the moment they threw a sale into the mix: the Steam version of Blasphemous is available at a 90% discount until tonight (20:00). The sequel, Blasphemous II, has its own cut — 75% off for now.

About the sequel: a few weeks back at the Future Games Show the team dropped a free DLC called The Third Sin. Highlights include:

• A new region — a gothic castle roughly 1/4 of the full game (incl. the Mea Culpa expansion), i.e., about 25% more explorable area.
• One new boss.
• New enemy types.
• A whip weapon that replaces the Veredictio thurible.
• New prayers.
• New Penitent skins.
• A boss‑rush room in the hub.
• New familiar mechanics.
• Six additional music tracks.
• Five new achievements.

Both entries in the Blasphemous duology are out on PC, PS, Xbox and Switch, with Russian text localization.
