Update -- December 18, 2025
Features
Our partners at 2weeks.games have been hard at work understanding our tool chains. We present to you their first experiments!
Reforged Mode (Alpha)
- Activate Reforged Mode (Alpha) during character creation.
- Your character will have a badge visible in-game.
- Piken Square will be accessible as an outpost for Reforged Mode players in pre-Searing Ascalon - but you'll have to fight your way there.
- Players gain 5% more experience and gold in the Prophecies campaign.
- Enemies have lower health and armor in pre-Searing Ascalon.
- Henchmen have been retuned and are more powerful with additional skills.
- The Northlands in pre-Searing Ascalon has additional spawns.
- For multiplayer parties, all players have to be in Reforged Mode to experience Reforged Mode content and balance changes. Mixed parties will see the standard content.
- This is an alpha feature we are sharing early to gather feedback. It is only presented in English.
Dhuum's Covenant (Beta)
- Activate Dhuum's Covenant during character creation.
- Dhuum's Covenant is a challenging mode, available throughout the game, where you strive to avoid dying. Ever.
- Characters created with Dhuum's Covenant get a badge visible in-game.
- Upon your character's death, you lose the badge permanently (but can keep playing the character).
- Any titles you earn while under Dhuum's Covenant will have the badge in the Hero panel.
- If you lose Dhuum's Covenant, any future ranks earned for that title will not display the badge.
- This is a beta feature and may undergo changes. It is currently only presented in English. We'd love your feedback!
Four Player Parties in Pre-Searing Ascalon
- This matches the maximum party size at the beginning of Factions and Nightfall.
One More Thing
Classic pregame backgrounds
- You can now choose which background scene is displayed during login and character selection!
- Choose your background in Options->General->Pregame Scene.
- Choose between Prophecies, Factions, Nightfall, and Eye of the North.
- The Prophecies scene was not designed to support 360 degree views therefore it has a fixed camera placement. There is some risk that the zoom level may cut off some of your view of your character in ultrawide screen resolutions.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a delay where Steam DLC was not always available immediately after purchase.
- Fixed a bug where the mouse would move unexpectedly when you touched the screen on some devices like Steam Deck and Windows-enabled touchscreens.
