Red Hook Studios’ Darkest Dungeon 2 is now available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S and Nintendo Switch, retailing for $39.99. There’s also the Oblivion Edition, which costs $44.99 and includes The Binding Blade DLC.
After entering early access in 2021, Darkest Dungeon 2 fully released for PC last year, selling over half a million copies in the first week. Unlike its predecessor, players select from four heroes at the outset and explore multiple doomed regions via stagecoach en route to The Mountain. Branching paths provide an insight into each party member’s past on top of featuring encounters, random events and boss fights.
Combat is still turn-based but overhauled, featuring tokens for status effects. Check out our review of the PC version here. The developer has made several improvements and new additions since launch, but its biggest update yet, Kingdoms, is out later this year. The campaign is entirely standalone, with players defending inns from three enemy factions. Head here for more details.
