Our review highlighted this, stating: “Kulebra and the Souls of Limbo is an extremely unique game that has an interesting premise, memorable characters, and a wonderfully expressive art style.” Some critics noted the linearity of the gameplay, but most agreed that the story and characters more than compensated for this.

Discussions on platforms like X.com and Facebook are rife with speculation and excitement. One post read, “Imagine what they could do with a bigger budget and more experience! #KulebraSequel #IndieGames.” The potential for a sequel has clearly captured the imaginations of players who were captivated by the original game’s haunting atmosphere and thought-provoking themes, despite some peoples misgivings.

The developers have not disclosed any concrete details about the DLC itself, leaving fans to speculate about what new content and experiences it will bring. However, they have hinted at expanding on existing storylines and introducing new characters, promising to enrich the world of Limbo even further. Until then, fans can replay the origional release and enjoy its uniqueness.
