14 DAY TRIAL // Blightbound, the multiplayer dungeon crawler in development at Arcane Glamour, is getting one of its biggest updates since release. The game tasks three heroes to face the abominations of the Blight, a mysterious and corrupting fog that covers the land.
The update announced this week promises to bring a wealth of additions and improvements, thus adding a tangible air of prestige to the character ranks, as well as brutal new randomized foes and major gameplay features that players have been waiting for for quite a while.
More importantly, the update introduces a new area ready to be explored by the three heroes in the Underhold. Obviously, the new area is inhabited by new horrors and even a new boss: Haäken, the jailed.
Two new enemies are also included in the update – the Elusive Wretch has greatly and the imposing Sinful Totemist – which have recently been making the lives of many adventurers on the battlefield more difficult.
Surprisingly, the fine folks at Arcane Glamour have decided to add a new playable hero. Roland of Stendhall is “an untouchable exhibitionist on the battlefield with a lock-down and long-distance kill.”
One of the highlights of the update is the fact that players can now select any hero before matchmaking, as the game will offer more variety and tactical possibilities than ever before. An abundance of new items has been added to the game, alongside their respective recipes, while detailed hero stats ensure that no item is wasted in your quest to strengthen the Refuge.
Last but not least, encounter randomization now changes enemy types between runs, ensuring every excursion provides a unique challenge. The update is already available for download via Steam, but if you don't own the game yet, you can pick it up right now for just $16/€16, which includes a 20% discount.
