Our third and final Early Access content update, Frosthaven: Into the Abyss, is now live!
While the outpost’s walls have offered a measure of safety, a new threat now stirs in the depths of the Biting Sea. An ancient and immensely powerful artifact has begun sending visions of unrest, calling out to be found once more. Now, the heroes of Frosthaven must venture both above and below the sea’s dark, icy waters to secure the artifact before it falls into the wrong hands.
Expanding the world of Frosthaven with narrative centered on the mysterious Lurkers, Into the Abyss adds two playable heroes that bring fresh playstyles and tactical depth to party composition for players well into the game:
- “Coral” channels the power of the sea, manipulating tides and battlefield positioning to control encounters and overwhelm enemies.
- “Kelp” lurks in the shadows and specializes in assassinating enemies, collecting trophies from their victims and using them to grow stronger.
