Jester's Spooktacular

Jester's Spooktacular DLC

Greetings, defenders! Today, a new harrowing, seasonally-inspired challenge awaits only the most fearless of Etheria's heroes. Utilize whatever tricks necessary to defeat an onslaught of malicious forces, and rightfully claim the treats that await you!

[h3]New Challenge Map: Jester's Spooktacular[/h3]

The already twisted terrain of the King's Game map receives a spectral makeover in the all new challenge; Jester's Spooktacular! Survive a relentless assault of masked foes and—if you're savvy enough to find the secret summoning method—take on the dreaded Flying Pumpkin Boss!

[h3]Map Rewards[/h3]

If this contorted world doesn't cause you to lose your mind—and the Flying Pumpkin Boss doesn't cause you to lose your head—you'll be rewarded with a bone-chilling bounty!

The Corrupted Axe, Dragon Halberd, Punk Jester Costume and Devil Mask are all unlocked upon completing Challenge Map: Jester's Spooktacular.
The Flying Pumpkin Pet is unlocked via completing Challenge Map: Jester's Spooktacular after having defeated the Flying Pumpkin Boss!

The Devil Mask is cursed with a particularly nasty hex, causing its wearer to sprout ghoulish, hideous, and definitely not super rad demonic wings!

This DLC is available NOW. and launches with a 10% discount until October 23rd!

President's Day Surprise 2024 DLC + Patch Notes

[h2]President's Day Surprise 2024 DLC[/h2]

Greetings, defenders! We're kicking off October the scariest way we know how—U.S. politics! Introducing the President's Day Surprise 2024 DLC, featuring both current presidential candidates; Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, as well as Abraham Lincoln and Elon Musk. Releasing with launch-discount, you can save 10% on this DLC until Saturday, October 10th!

Much like the 2012 President's Day Surprise DLC, these figures will take the form of hero costumes;

Kamala - Costume for the Initiate. No stat changes.
Trump - Costume for the Squire. This costume exchanges a portion of the Squire's health for a boost in movement speed, similar to the Squire's Mitt costume.
Elon - Costume for the Monk. No stat changes.
Lincoln - Costume for the Ranger. This costume exchanges a portion of the Ranger's movement speed for a boost in health and damage, similar to the Ranger's Tuxedo costume.
