We’ve got a lot of great ideas to facilitate your ability to get creative! Like we did on the original Darkest Dungeon, we are planning to devote time to developing modding tools after our 1.0 release.įinally, we are excited to announce that our community of existing DDI owners will be able to purchase Darkest Dungeon II at a discounted rate for a limited time! Full pricing and bundle information will be available on May 8th. As many of you know, modding has been an incredible part of the Darkest Dungeon community and it's something that we are eager to bring to Darkest Dungeon II. Modding support is also something the team is very passionate about. We’ve already committed to new monsters (the Collector and the Gaunt Chirurgeon - more on that enemy here), playable hero origin skins, and of course, ongoing balance and tuning based on your feedback. Looking forward, we have a number of free updates planned that range from content to quality-of-life. The 1.0 Steam launch represents a new phase of development for the game. Our approach is the same with Darkest Dungeon II. The original Darkest Dungeon was well supported post-launch with the addition of town events, radiant mode, and multiple new enemies. You can also expect to see corpse art, hero palettes, weapon kits, radiant and infernal flames, achievements and a plethora of other features on May 8th. The final two acts and our blight-fueled 12th playable character, The Flagellant, will be new to our 1.0 release. Each act is a challenging expedition in which you assemble a party of four heroes and then navigate a series of deadly regions in a quest to reach the Mountain, which houses an imposing end boss themed to that particular Confession. We wanted to take this opportunity to discuss what you can expect on May 8th, and beyond.Īt launch the game will feature 12 playable characters with a complete narrative featuring 5 acts. Based on your comments, we made a number of improvements to our driving system, the Valley and first time user experience - along with a huge swath of new content and features. We want to send a massive thank you to those who played our demo in February and sent us feedback. Many of you got a glimpse of the game during Steam Next Fest. Darkest Dungeon II releases here on Steam in just under 1 week!
