Darkest Dungeon II launches its Kingdoms mode

Today is the day that thousands of fans of Darkest Dungeons II were waiting for. The biggest free update for the game is releasing and it's bringing huge changes to the game. The Kingdoms mode is a brand-new addition to the game that offers a totally new type of experience. Before the update players would control a group of brave heroes while they embark on a stagecoach journey through perilous lands in order to defeat the ultimate evils corrupting the land. The four chapters in the Confession mode offer a unique experience that is similar to the one featured in the original Darkest Dungeon in many aspects, although it has notable differences. Darkest Dungeons II is more dynamic and aims for a higher replayability but it loses some persistent elements in the process. However, Kingdoms will be in a middle ground of sorts in terms of gameplay.

Board-like experience

Kingdoms introduces a totally new gameplay mode that is like a "board-game inspired strategy metagame that delivers a more persistent sense of space and time". In this mode, players will have to defend a ruined kingdom from the attack of evil creatures. The introduction of such a mode will change the gameplay dynamics in Darkest Dungeon II, in a more significant way than The Color of Madness did to the first game in the series.  High replayability, multiple quests, maps, and customizable difficulty settings await those who want to delve into this new type of adventure.

Kingdoms will be added to Darkest Dungeon II today as a free update. You just have to download the patch once it's available on your platform and you will be able to dive into the new gameplay mode right away. Also, the Inhuman Bondage DLC with the Abomination will become available today too for those who want to support the creators of the game and add a new powerful hero to their roster.
