A Legendary Free Update Sends Pyrene Deep Into French Myths and Legends
Montréal, 3 June 2025 – Indie studio Two Tiny Dice, backed by the Indie Asylum collective, is thrilled to announce a major update for its roguelike deck-builder Pyrene. This free post-campaign expansion will be available starting 7 June 2025 at 6 PM BST. It invites players to explore a new narrative steeped in mysteries, Breton legends and new challenges.
To celebrate the release, Pyrene will be featured in a Steam Daily Deal with a historic low discount of -34%, making it the perfect time to join the adventure.
The calm of the village of Pyrene is shattered by the arrival of Malo, a young boy rescued from the sunken city of Ys. His missing grandmother, the shapeshifting druid Dahud, seems to be at the heart of an ancient secret. This new chapter takes players on a journey to meet mythological figures such as Merzhin the sorcerer, Yuna the alchemist, and Ankoù, the personification of death in Breton folklore.
Major Update Features:
- New Playable Characters: Unlock powerful new heroes including Margot the Bone Doctor, Malo the Mana User, Dahud the Shapeshifter, and some secret ones too…
- New Biomes: Explore hauntingly beautiful landscapes rooted in Breton legend: Whispering Woods, Wild Moor, Granite Shore, and Twilight Fields.
- New Herensuge Challenges: Two new gameplay challenges per character, each introducing high-risk, high-reward gameplay modifiers.
- 120+ New Cards: 50+ new equipment items, 50+ relics, and 20+ monsters open up fresh, game-breaking strategies for every run and game mode.
Developed by a team of three enthusiasts (Christophe, Jeanne, Marion), Pyrene continues to establish itself as a must-have in the genre, combining immersive storytelling, deep gameplay and unique artistic direction.

ABOUT TWO TINY DICE AND THE MAKING OF PYRENE
Following the release of Forward: Escape the Fold in March 2022, Solo developer Christophe realized the potential of fast-paced card-based roguelikes and decided to work on a new, more ambitious title. Joined by Jeanne and Marion, artist and writer respectively, the trio started the journey to create Pyrene. With more features, a complex storyline and deep gameplay, the game aims to bring a refreshing take on the roguelike deck builder genre.
