Kalypso Media :
Bracknell, UK – November 2nd - Kalypso Media and in-house developer Realmforge Studios, have unveiled the first in a series of Developer Diaries for their upcoming game Dungeons 4. This first Dev Diary focuses on the evolution of the iconic Dungeons series, discussing how the newest game will expand on the gameplay, art, and lore of the series.
The Broadcasting Evil has decided to allow its devilish devotees at Realmforge Studios to profess their love for Dungeons 4 in a special, behind-the-scenes, video. The video, titled “The Evolution of Dungeons,” follows Creative Director Christian Wolfertstetter, Art Director Anika Linke, Level Designer Marcel Hähnlein, Project Manager Maita Sedlaczek, and Lead Programmer Immanuel Scholz, as they discuss their favorite ways in which they have expanded the Dungeons series in Dungeons 4, even dropping some new character information, and gameplay features, exclusive to this video.
Dungeons 4, which was recently the 34th most played demo in the recent Steam Next Fest, will be unleashed upon the world on November 9th with Xbox Game Pass for console and PC and on Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, and PlayStation 5.
Features:
Everything is better with Dwarves™: The Dwarves have arrived to build their underground strongholds and the hardy fellows compete with the Ever-Expanding Evil for space and resources.
It makes your Dungeon great again: Dungeons are up to four times larger than before and there are many more creatures who await the All-Commanding Evil’s orders to conquer the Overworld. The time has come for massive armies and truly sprawling dungeons!
Ripe for the taking: The Overworld is bigger than ever before. Gain Evilness by beating Mini- Bosses like the obsessively Harmonious Unicorn and use it to transform the Overworld into stunning biomes of pure evil.
New and shiny: An ability-based Perk system for Thalya, the Absolute Evil’s trusted *cough* and most loyal subordinate, grants her impressive new powers. The Absolute Evil can now enjoy taking over the world, governing the creatures and slapping subordinates even more with the customizable Evil Hand.
Minions, everywhere: The Horde, the Undead, and the Demons wait to do the Absolute Evil’s bidding with more creatures than ever before eagerly following the gesturing Evil’s orders, and with Snots who will now play a much more prominent role.
Many ways to tell the story: Immerse yourself in a carefully curated campaign, narrated by the beloved English Narrator Kevan Brighting, as well as several skirmish maps, and cooperative play - all to challenge your rule as the Absolute Evil.
Change the world: Spread your Evilness across the Overworld to bring lush and green environments over to the dark side, now shining even more vibrant and beautifully evil as you take control over new biomes.
Work together, slay together: 2-player co-op multiplayer with both players managing one Dungeon together. All skirmish maps and the campaign are playable in co-op.
