With the Forgotten Gods expansion for Grim Dawn well on its way, Crate Entertainment's game designer Kamil Marczewski had a chat with WCCFTech about the game's future, its new expansion and its prominent new features, and the upcoming Xbox One release. Here are a few sample questions:
Is there anything you can tell us about the story behind the upcoming Forgotten Gods expansion?
The Forgotten Gods expansion is going to explore beyond the Erulan Empire, where Grim Dawn’s story has taken place so far, to elaborate on its extensive lore and vast world. You will interact with the Witch God cults and fight alongside them to vanquish a rising threat of a forgotten deity.
It is an opportunity for us to touch upon many topics in Grim Dawn’s world that have up until now been in the background or secreted away for players to discover while they dealt with the Aetherials and Chthonians.
How long do you expect this expansion will take players to complete?
The average player will probably spend at least 10-15 hours clearing the main story content. Then there are the new faction reputations, new Nemesis boss, secrets to discover and of course the Shattered Realm game mode, so there is going to be quite a bit of content!
As with Ashes of Malmouth, Forgotten Gods is turning out to be another huge addition to Grim Dawn.
When do you plan to release the Forgotten Gods on PC? Will it be available at launch on Xbox One included with the base game?
Forgotten Gods is currently slated for release later this year. We’ll announce a more concrete date as we near the end of development.
We are discussing bundling all of the DLC with the base game for the console release, a complete edition of sorts, but more on that as we near the console release.
