Darkest Dungeon 2 is overhauling progression and adding bounty hunters next
The next early access update for grim roguelike Darkest Dungeon 2 revamps its progression system and brings in some temporary hired muscle in the form of bounty hunters. The Altar Of Hope update is already live in the game’s experimental branch and is coming to the main game when devs Red Hook are satisfied with its stability. You can catch a glimpse of the bounty hunter in the teaser below.
Remember, RPS premium supporters can get their free copy of Darkest Dungeon today
Earlier this week, we announced the next free game key for existing RPS premium supporters, the excellent gothic roguelike Darkest Dungeon. This is your reminder that these free game keys will be available to claim today, November 11th, from 4pm GMT (that's 8am PT for folks across the pond).
Darkest Dungeon is the next free game for RPS premium supporters, and here's how to get it
When we relaunched the RPS supporter program at the end of June, one of the benefits of becoming a premium subscriber was regular free game keys, as curated by the RPS staff. Today, we're announcing one of the next game keys that will be available for existing premium subscribers: Darkest Dungeon, the exquisite gothic roguelike that's also one of our favourite RPGs of all time.
Darkest Dungeon 2 is out now in early access
Darkest Dungeon 2 has launched in early access, inviting us all on a delightfully stressful wagon ride. The sequel to Red Hook Studios' dark roguelike moves away from expeditions in the gloomy Hamlet, and instead sends you on a journey through horrific lands to stop an apocalypse. The devs recently told me about why they're taking their gothic tale on the road, and it has something to do with wanting to emulate a rather uncomfortable road trip.
