The Dark Arisen DLC will enhance several gameplay features that are already available in the base game. Additionally, it also introduces fresh story chapters in a new area. You can access Forsaken Dominion: Another Tale of Ruin Unfolds in the Snowy North.
The adventure will take you to a long-abandoned region of Norgan, and you’ll then join forces with the enigmatic Eir. Together, you’ll discover the secrets of the undying Fallen Dragon.
In Lost Rites, you can prove yourself with 12 Dungeon Challenges. You’ll also find rare equipment to discover that lied dormant underneath these dungeons. The DLC also adds new variations when it comes to character creation.
