Monster Sanctuary announces final update release date

Indie developers Moi Rai Games have announced a release date for the final update of their monster collecting metroidvania, Monster Sanctuary.

The update, titled “Relics of Chaos”, will be arriving to PC on May 9, 2023. While the console ports of the game will see this update on May 16, 2023.

Here’s a rundown of the update:

New Game Mode: Relics of Chaos! Experience the game again, this time with new, powerful items. When enabled, each zone will have a randomly selected treasure chest which possesses a Relic of Chaos hidden inside!

A plethora of balance changes! We’ve made tweaks to certain strategies which needed some curtailing, and buffed monsters which could use a little push toward the right direction. Look forward to playing with 5 new passive skills!

Having trouble finishing that Wanderlust achievement? The updated map will indicate percentage of each zone explored, so you know where to look for those last few hidden areas!

Always forgetting to feed your monsters? We’ve implemented an icon in the menu to show who is hungry. Make Old Buran proud!

Improved functionality on skillpoint allocation, with the ability to change your mind until you either start a battle or exit the game.

More control over your save files by adding in the capability to copy or delete them in the menu.

A new merchant at the Infinity Arena who can sell you Reward Box items in exchange for special coupons obtained from playing Arena and PvP!

Various bugfixes…. and More!

Monster Sanctuary is available now for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC (via Steam). You can check out our review of the game here. We found it to be an instant classic.
