The uphill indie platformer Celeste will soon grow in size, with the creator Matt Thorson - on behalf of the team at Matt Makes Games - revealing the free ninth chapter DLC will include more than 100 levels.

The current game already has more than 700 levels in it and the next chapter is expected to ramp up the difficulty yet again. As previously revealed, it won't include any strawberries and will be more streamlined than previous chapters.

We don't like to talk release dates until we're 100% sure, because as always we have missed every internal target we set for ourselves as the Chapter grew in scope. Sorry! — Maddy Thorson (@MattThorson) May 31, 2019

As Thorson explained in his follow-up tweet, the DLC has missed an internal target, so there are no plans to reveal a release date until the team is absolutely positive the game is ready to go.
