Face Your Failures.

Red Hook is thrilled to deliver the 1.0 release to PC on May 8th. We’ve packed this update with a host of new features, new content, plus a swath of balancing, refinement and quality of life improvements.

You can revisit everything we’ve done so far by checking out our Early Access ROAD TO RELEASE graphic

Before we get to all the juicy details, first we want to thank all of the Early Access players, whose voices helped shape the game during its journey to 1.0.

We also are indebted to the groups of private beta-testers who suffered through many secret experiments. Your tireless efforts have been instrumental at many times, but most critically this final push.

…and more!

New Player Experience

The tutorial experience has been thoroughly reworked and improved.

Now, the very first expedition is a “Prologue” that consists only of an introductory Valley. Following that, the player chooses their first Confession (Denial) and play proceeds as normal.

All tutorial events and information has been revised. Tutorial events now trigger more contextually and are spaced out over more time.

Videos have been added to many tutorial events to better depict information.

Denial Confession

Denial has been restructured to be more friendly to new players and provide a smoother learning experience.

• Denial consists only of 2 full regions, instead of 3
• Denial features only the Sprawl and The Tangle
• Denial does not require a Trophy to enter the Mountain
• The Shackles have been rebalanced to be a bit easier
• No Champions or Antiquarian will appear in Denial

A number of other balance changes have been made to create a better sense of progression and difficulty escalation between the different Confessions.

Cosmetic Unlocks

• Each hero has 3 alternate color palettes and 3 weapon kits available on the new Mountain subscreen at the Altar of Hope.
• Once unlocked, these palettes and kits are configurable at the crossroads in any combination you wish.

Infernal/Radiant Flames

The Radiant and Infernal Flames allow you to customize the difficulty of the game.

• The Radiant Flame is available at all Valley Inns and gives various gameplay boosts that can help you overcome any Confession. Furthermore, each time you fail a Confession, the Radiant Flame gets stronger and stronger. Mounting the Radiant Flame reduces the candles scored slightly, but it can be well worth it.
• By contrast, Infernal Flames make the game harder. There are five in total, each with a specific theme. Infernal Flames are unlocked at the Altar of Hope. Mounting them will give you a candle scoring bonus at expedition end.

Hero Remains

• Honor the fallen by bringing their remains to the next Inn and you will be rewarded with candles of Hope!

Candle Earning and Altar of Hope Balance Changes

• All “abandon run” candle penalties have been removed. Push your journey forward, risk free. Reaching the next Inn is always valuable for more candles.
• Earn candles by carrying your fallen heroes’ remains to the next inn (see Hero Remains, above.)
• First time victory bonuses for each Confession increased dramatically
• Increased region completion candle awards modestly
• Valley completion candle award increased slightly
• Overall Altar of Hope price audit, resulting in reducing prices of many unlocks
• Hero unlock prices raised from 4 to 8
• Hero Altar tracks: changed first deathblow resist upgrade to always be the first upgrade (after the class unlock)
• No longer need to spend candles to leave the Altar

Misc Balance Changes

• Relationship blessed and cursed skills now are selected with weighted chance influenced by usage, meaning that the most-used skills are more likely to be chosen.
• Enemy Advantage tuning pass (several have changed)
• Meltdown: hero stress now drops to 1
• Overstress (meltdown or resolute) confer a 3 round stress resist buff afterwards
• Resolute: now heals 67% (was 50%) and gives a 3 round debuff resist buff
• Meltdown: affinity penalty to -3 (still down from -4 that was in Early Access)
• Adjusted overall affinity change rates to try to reduce current positive relationship heavy bias. Will continue to monitor data after launch.
• Champion monsters will no longer appear until Confession 3+

Assist, Resist, Cultist, and Oasis Encounters

• Added various quirk-driven choices
• Quirk-driven choices in encounters now show the name of the quirk that caused it
• New logic for choice selection, which will ensure that at least one hero will want to interact with Encounter. For example, you will no longer arrive at an Assist Encounter desperate for Flame, and have all heroes want to leave or kill the helpless. Similarly, at least one hero will always want to interact with the Academic’s Study, and so on.

Academic’s Studies

• Thorough revamping of all Academic’s Studies to ensure that they are all beneficial generally, although not without some risk of downside to accompany the upside.
• Audited and redistributed which of the Studies appear in which regions, to give region identity.
• The exact Academic’s Study type (e.g. Hovering Polyhedra) can now be scouted and will appear on the minimap, allowing you to plan a route specifically to go to that Study.
• Some new items that are exclusive to specific Academic’s Studies, including a new food item, new combat items, and new trinkets.

Darkest Dungeon 2 Gameplay

Get ready for an epic adventure in the roguelike role-playing realm of Darkest Dungeon II! Just like its predecessor, this game is packed with thrilling gameplay and captivating characters. Each character brings their own unique strengths and abilities to the table, and you can equip them with trinkets and combat items to enhance their skills.

To navigate this twisted world, you’ll commandeer a trusty stagecoach that serves as your primary mode of transportation. Your ultimate goal? Conquer the sinister evil that has engulfed the world by reaching the menacing mountain. But beware, the journey is filled with surprises!

As you explore, you’ll encounter various locations and roadblocks that will put your mettle to the test. Brace yourself for intense turn-based combat scenarios! Position your heroes strategically, as their skills may vary depending on where they’re standing. Remember, a misstep can make all the difference between victory and defeat.

While venturing through this dark world, keep an eye out for the Shrines of Reflection. They offer a deeper glimpse into the rich backstories of your beloved characters. Uncover their hidden secrets and forge a stronger bond with your team.

But be warned, the stress levels of your heroes will rise as they push forward. Too much stress can lead to catastrophic meltdowns during combat, causing a significant decrease in health and acquiring negative traits. Stress can also strain relationships between characters. Foster friendships to gain additional perks, but beware of hostile dynamics that hinder each other’s skills and increase stress levels.

Fortunately, there’s a Hospital where you can heal your characters and remove those pesky bad traits. And when tragedy strikes and a hero falls, fear not! You may find solace in an inn, where new heroes eagerly join your cause. In this haven, you can also alleviate stress and improve team dynamics. But be cautious, as an extended stay at the inn can increase the looming Loathing, an ominous indicator of the all-consuming evil plaguing this world.

Keep a close watch on the flame that burns on your stagecoach. It symbolizes your team’s dwindling hope. When it flickers close to extinction, penalties befall your party. Stay vigilant and protect that flame at all costs!

With each run you embark upon, your Profile rank increases, unlocking new characters and items for future adventures. So gear up, hone your skills, and brace yourself for an exhilarating journey through the twisted world of Darkest Dungeon II!
