FACTRICK
1. NEW AND DOOMED Of the 11 party member classes announced so far, only the fiery runaway is entirely new.
2. TOURING TERROR Including the fiery Sprawl, seven different traversable regions have been announced to date.
3. ON THE HOOK Red Hook Studios is a small developer, with just over 20 full-time staff and contractors on this project.
Riding in a stagecoach at sunset, charging through piles of leaves, and even finding the odd palmful of coins, we can’t rest easy. As everything is bathed in the dying light, there’s no ignoring that something red is coming for us; ruin has found us once more.
The first Darkest Dungeon saw you plumbing the depths of a cursed family estate. You’d assemble parties from drifters and odd job men passing through town, tempting them with coin before looking on as they spent ever longer either in the cloister or down the pub after each expedition. Some would never make it back from the estate, and you’d forget their names in time.
This sequel has those same desperate vibes along with arresting Mike Mignolainspired art direction, though at a much grander scale. For a start, rather than exploring one mouldering estate you’re on the road with a rag-tag crew with the aim of averting the apocalypse, and the gorgeous 2D art is now punctuated by 3D character models and environments.
