DESCENT: LEGENDS OF THE DARK Gets Expansion This Fall
The fan favorite tabletop dungeon-crawling adventure Descent: Legends of the Dark is getting a new expansion. Titled Act II: The Betrayer’s War, this expansion brings new mechanics and adventures for the heroes from the original game. You and up to three of your friends will have to work together to conquer the new storyline. The Betrayer’s War uses an app to run the game so you don’t need a Game Master and allows for player choices to drive the game forward.
Descent Act II is a sprawling and deeply cooperative dungeon crawler driven by player choice - all powered by an app that allows for games to run without a Game Master. The game's immersive storyline is packed with twists and turns sure to thrill players of all skill levels. Campaigns can be played solo or with up to 4 players, requiring cooperation and skillful teamwork to overcome challenges.
The Betrayer’s War builds on the exhilarating dungeon-crawling adventure of its predecessor by introducing new villains, quests, and mechanics. The game sees players returning to Terrinoth, where they find themselves in an unlikely alliance with their greatest enemy, Waiqar the Betrayer. They have to work together to battle against armies of dragons and the sinister machinations of the Uthuk Y'llan. All six heroes from the original game return to defend their legacy, each equipped with a new hero card and a variety of abilities to aid them in their battle against the impending darkness.
Talking about The Betrayer’s War, lead designer Philip D. Henry said:
Descent has been a fan favorite for years, and this new installment is a natural evolution, introducing new mechanics and leveling up heroes for the next threat. Descent Act II builds on the core mechanics of the original so players can easily transition from one to the other. So finish up those campaigns now, and be ready to face the Dragonlord Levirax!
Fans can look forward to The Betrayer’s War this fall when it launches for $159.99. The game expansion will be available from Asmodee’s store and select retailers. Unfortunately, we don’t have an exact release date yet. Are you excited for this expansion for Descent: Legends of the Dark?
