Darkest Dungeon Getting Significant Update Later This Month
Red Hook's Darkest Dungeon continues to roll out updates during its early access phase, with the the "Fiends & Frenzy" update dropping later this month on May 28.
This update will feature two new classes, the commander-style Man-at-Arms who comes hardened for battle with a mace, a shield, and rallying cries, and the Arbalest, a plate-wearing artillery class with some field medic abilities! In addition to the two new classes, three new bosses will be making their first appearances in the existing dungeons, and new special rewards will be available for those brave (and crazy!) enough to explore larger dungeons in a state of darkness.
Darkest Dungeon is expected to go into a full launch state sometime this summer.
Our Take
My experiences with Darkest Dungeon in early access have been fairly incredible. The sooner it releases, the better.
