Gaming New Crypt Of The NecroDancer DLC Adds Hatsune Miku

​

Crypt of the NecroDancer finally got its Synchrony update last month, and now Brace Yourself Games has revealed even more paid DLC is on the way.

The newest announcement is a crossover with the one and only Hatsune Miku. This content is available now on other platforms and will come to the Nintendo Switch "soon". Here's what's in this new update (via Steam):

​

New character

• Hatsune Miku:
  • Move in all 8 directions, don't stand still!
  • Dance through enemies to hit them with your trusty spring onion!
  • No shovel - dig by dashing through enemies into walls instead!
  • Charm monsters and shatter walls with your new ability: SING!
  • Land consecutive hits to deal increasing amounts of damage and regain SING charges!

New soundtrack

• Hatsune Miku soundtrack:
  • Dance along to 15 Hatsune Miku songs added to the soundtrack, including two new tracks created by Danny Baranowsky!
  • Track list:
    • 1-1 (118 BPM): Too Real by Danny Baranowsky

  • This soundtrack is enabled by default when playing Hatsune Miku.
    • It can be selected for other characters in single-player via the "Change Soundtrack" menu.
    • Due to differences in song speed and duration, using this soundtrack on other characters submits to the "Custom Music" leaderboards.
    • Achievements can still be unlocked while playing with the Miku soundtrack.

Compatibility notes

• Playing as Hatsune Miku while hosting an online multiplayer session (SYNCHRONY) allows players without the DLC to join the lobby and play along on other characters.

New features

• Added compatibility mode when joining online multiplayer lobbies hosted on older versions:
  • Any online multiplayer lobby hosted on v4.0.0 or above can be entered, even if the game is on a newer version.
  • Selecting "Cross-play" when hosting a multiplayer lobby may temporarily revert the game to a previous patch to allow players from other platforms to join.

Changes

• Changed default multi-press combos for special actions (e.g. UP+LEFT for ITEM 1, etc.) to no longer apply to controllers
  • Multi-press combos for special actions can still be assigned manually via the "Reassign controls" menu by pressing two buttons at once

Bugfixes

• Fixed screen tearing on some systems
  • If you still experience tearing after this update, visit the "Display Options" menu and uncheck "Reduce Input Lag"
• Fixed high input latency on some systems
• Fixed graphics corruption on some systems
• Fixed button mappings resetting themselves after being unbound manually
• Fixed music playback stuttering on some systems
• Fixed Linka and GC CRAB character skins not being selectable
• Fixed Reaper not being selectable as a skin for other characters when "Show all characters" is checked
• Fixed "Uninstall" menu option not working on mods that were previously loaded in the same session
• Fixed Shopkeeper Ghost continuing to sing after being defeated in online multiplayer
