Darkest Dungeon is a gothic turn based dungeon crawler inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft, tabletop RPGs and classic roleplaying games such as The Bard’s Tale and Eye of the Beholder. The game draws deeply upon the psychological strains the characters face when traversing the horrific landscape infested by nightmarish beasts.

“It’s only under great duress that true heroes are born“.

Red Hook Studio’s dungeon crawling roguelike was released on Playstation 4 and Vita on the 27th of September. The game originally launched on Windows and OSX back in January and received near universal critical acclaim. After the initial release, Red Hook Studios focused on the console ports of the game, thus with the exception of minor additions, the game received no significant gameplay updates.

Today Red Hook Studios revealed the game’s first DLC, The Crimson Court, is set for release in early 2017. The announcement revealed little about the content of the DLC, but in an email to PC Gamer, Red Hook confirmed the DLC will include a new playable class, “but we’re keeping the rest of the details close to the chest for now,”.

Darkest Dungeon: The Crimson Court will be releasing on PC, Mac, PlayStation 4, and PS Vita sometime in Early 2017.
