Mewgenics: The Cat-Breeding Brawler That’s Taking Over Lives and Now Getting Even Bigger

If you thought the feline frenzy of Mewgenics couldn’t get any wilder, think again. Edmund McMillen and Tyler Glaiel’s bizarre yet brilliant cat-breeding brawler has already taken over the lives of players worldwide, with some sinking over 100 hours into its chaotic, roguelike world. But according to McMillen, the madness is far from over. In fact, it’s just getting started.

A Game That Refuses to Let Go

Senior editor Robin Valentine of PC Gamer couldn’t stop raving about Mewgenics in his 92% review, calling it a game that “still surprises me every run” after three weeks and over 100 hours of playtime. And if that’s not enough to convince you, McMillen himself has dropped some jaw-dropping stats: it’ll take most players over 200 hours to “beat the game,” and a staggering 500+ hours to see and do it all.

Yes, you read that right. Mewgenics isn’t just a game—it’s a lifestyle. And now, McMillen and Glaiel are hinting at even more content to keep you glued to your screen.

DLC on the Horizon: More Cats, More Chaos

In a recent Reddit AMA, McMillen teased the possibility of DLC for Mewgenics, saying, “I assume we will start on DLC in a few months after seeing what people like and want to see more of.” While the details are still under wraps, McMillen hinted at “a few more classes and more areas” to expand the already massive game.

But don’t expect the DLC to drop anytime soon. McMillen estimates it’ll take about a year from the start of development to release, though he admits, “maybe?”—a classic McMillen move that’s become almost as legendary as his games.

The McMillen Effect: Good Things Come to Those Who Wait

Let’s be real: waiting for a McMillen game is like waiting for a comet to pass by. It’s rare, it’s magical, and it’s absolutely worth it. As PC Gamer’s Shaun Prescott once wrote, McMillen “has a habit of announcing cool stuff and taking aaaages to release it.” And Mewgenics is no exception. Originally announced in 2012, the game took nearly a decade to finally arrive, with McMillen himself saying in 2018 that it was “a few years” away. Spoiler alert: it took eight.

But here’s the thing: the wait is always worth it. Mewgenics is a masterpiece, and if the DLC is anything like the base game, it’s going to be legendary.

What’s Next for Mewgenics?

While we don’t have a release date for the DLC just yet, one thing’s for sure: Mewgenics isn’t going anywhere. Whether you’re a seasoned player or a curious newcomer, now’s the perfect time to dive into this chaotic, cat-filled world. And when the DLC finally drops, you’ll be ready to sink even more hours into the madness.

So, grab your controller, stock up on snacks, and get ready for the ride of your life. Mewgenics is here to stay, and it’s only getting bigger.
