Buy Darkest Dungeon II Resolute Edition PC key

Darkest Dungeon II is a roguelike journey across a decaying landscape. You form a party of four heroes, equip a stagecoach and set out on a last-ditch quest to avert the apocalypse. The dangers may come from within the party as well as from the world around you.

Kingdoms

Kingdoms is a standalone strategic campaign mode, separate from the Confessions core mode. You defend a crumbling realm from incursions by new enemy factions, managing a persistent roster of heroes, gathering resources and following a questline to find and defeat the source of evil. Progress is tracked separately in each mode, and you can switch between their active sessions.

Kingdoms is available in three adventure modules: Hunger of the Beast Clan, Secrets of the Coven and Curse of the Court.

Expeditions and combat

Combat builds on the turn-based system from Darkest Dungeon, with refined stats and rules. Its Token System adds depth to decisions. Expeditions last from 30 minutes to several hours; even an unsuccessful run provides resources you can spend to improve the next one.

At the Altar of Hope, you choose from a large system of upgrades and boons to shape your strategies for each expedition and prepare assaults on the Mountain. The road there crosses five distinct regions, including the burning Sprawl and the diseased Foetor, each with its own creatures and challenges. At the Mountain, you face five manifestations of your weaknesses.

Heroes and relationships

Each hero has a tragic origin story, and you can unlock new skills, paths, items and more to develop their potential. As the journey progresses, heroes may bond or grate on one another, creating combat synergies or causing dysfunction that can end the expedition. You manage their stress and interactions to keep the party together.

At the Inn, you can give weary heroes a rest, relieve their stress and use diversions to try to improve their relationships.

Presentation

The game uses 3D visuals, animation and visual effects in an evolved version of Darkest Dungeon’s art style. Wayne June returns as narrator, with a new score by Stuart Chatwood and sound effects by Power Up Audio.
