Celestial Ruins Expansion Launches for Heroes
Celestial Ruins expansion launches more battles, a new class for Heroes of Hammerwatch II rogue-lite action-rpg game on Linux and Steam Deck via Windows. Team17 keeps things fresh with bold new ideas. Which out now on Steam with a discount. The Celestial Ruins release is now live for Heroes of Hammerwatch II. It adds a new class, tough bosses, fresh gear, and more pets. Linux and Steam Deck players also have key details to note.
A Priest Enters the Ruins
The new Priest class joins the game’s seven current classes. This hero leans hard on mana power and mana gain. Those skills should help in the new Celestial Ruins zone. Five Spirit bosses wait inside the ruined holy site. The expansion also adds Spirit Boons. These buffs open new ways to shape each run. Players can find new gear as well. The list includes sceptres, lanterns, and rare trinkets. Two new pets join the paid pack. They are Will O’ The Wisp and Animated Candle.
Free Pets Join Everyone
The paid pack arrives beside a free game update. That patch adds five pets for all players. The new pets are Toucan, Raven, Scarab, Dog, and Cat. Each pet can pick up loot during a run. The patch also brings more trinkets. That gives players more ways to tune each hero. This split feels fair. The new zone costs money, while useful extras stay free.

What Players Should Know
Team17 says Celestial Ruins is out now, but the source also names Linux and Steam Deck play through Windows. That wording needs care. It may point to the Windows build on Steam Deck. Native support for the expansion is not fully explained. Proton use is also not verified, but playable. No frame rates or test data were shared. Smooth gameplay has not been shown. Players should check the Steam store details before buying. They should also watch for fresh Deck reports.
More Content Is Planned Beyond Celestial Ruins
Team17 bought the Heroes of Hammerwatch IP one year ago. It then promised more content coming as well. Since then, it has shipped Epic Weapons and Epic Missions updates. A new roadmap also went live today. That plan shows more updates are on the way. It also lists one more expansion.
Watch the Details
The Celestial Ruins release also adds a strong new class and fresh zone. It also brings more loot, pets, and build paths. The main gap is clear platform detail. Linux players should watch for firm notes on Proton.
