Darkest Dungeon II’s first content patch is just around the corner! Our first free update since launch contains new features, exciting new content and quality of life improvements for you to enjoy. First, we are happy to announce that this update will contain both gamepad and Steam Deck support. These features have been frequently requested since launch, and we’re happy to announce they will soon be in your hands.
How is this game? I liked the first one but I got burnt out pretty quick. I didn’t like the mosquito dlc mechanics, I found that distracting from the main game
Tried it when they had a free weekend shortly before release. They added these awful segments where you drive a stage coach like it’s Skiifree between locations. The rest of it seemed pretty good and the art style looks great.
It’s a bit divisive amongst enjoyers of the first game, but I played a lot of it and even finished the main story. It’s 100% run based with metaprogression even moreso than the first one - you end up caring a lot about the party you have on your run, but not really that much about individuals across runs. The art style was perfectly translated to 3D, it looks great. There are some wonky UI elements and I think the in-between tedium between locations of interest is a bit too long, but I would recommend.
