Noita Epilogue 2 Update
Noita Epilogue 2 Update is now available. To celebrate the update, Noita is 60% off at Steam!
This update includes a ton of new things, like new spells, new enemies, new bosses, a new area and new secrets. There's also a bunch of tweaks, updates and bug fixes.
Unfortunately your old save games won't survive the update. But there is now a new
