Slay the Spire 2’s patch 0.105.0 removes the controversial Doormaker boss and introduces a new Act 3 boss, Aeonglass, which adds a Wither status and alternates debuffs/buffs; the update also buffs Defect and Regent, adjusts several cards, previews a Bestiary, and is pitched as a fresh start for Act 3 design, amid ongoing backlash and review bombing from players in some regions.
Mega Crit released a beta patch for Slay the Spire 2 aimed at softening the baseline difficulty to make high Ascension runs achievable for more players, while re-evaluating the Doormaker boss after feedback about its abrasiveness.

Slay The Spire 2 faces a second round of Steam review bombing after a major update, centered on the Doormaker boss which players say is too punishing; Mega Crit says Doormaker's win rate is actually slightly weaker than other Act 3 bosses and is monitoring feedback while adjusting balance, with patch notes also boosting relics and other Act 3 fights; despite the controversy, the game still has around 250k concurrent players and a Mixed Steam rating.
