A few days back, we had a chance to watch the launch trailer for Dauntless’ latest Call of the Void content update. That update is now live, featuring a new Escalation challenge, a new Behemoth, the latest iteration of the Hunt Pass, Training Grounds, numerous balance adjustments, and more.
You can find the complete patch notes over here, along with links to a number of articles detailing the new features. An excerpt:
UMBRAL ESCALATION
Strange ruins, dark energy, and a lost civilization — discover the new Umbral Escalation, and take up arms against the new threat looming beyond the Shattered Isles: Thrax.
To challenge Thrax, you’ll need to make your way past the Shadowtouched Behemoths that lurk in the Umbral Deeps. Umbral variants of Nayzagas, Koshais, and Drasks will block your path. But you’ll need to face them and brave the depths to uncover the truth.
NEW BEHEMOTH: THRAX
With the power to tear holes in reality and strike from anywhere, this agile Behemoth is not to be taken lightly. Thraxes are fast, deadly portal users who can attack from anywhere, so you’ll need to keep eyes peeled, your head on a swivel, and your finger hovering over dodge.
NEW HUNT PASS: RELICS & RUIN
We know the Void Runners traversed these caves, but for what purpose? Investigate the ancient ruins and learn their secrets with the new Hunt Pass. Earn rewards while you hunt and make your way to level 50. Relics & Ruin is active now and ends July 23.
SLAYER JOURNAL
Discover the secrets of the Shattered Isles by unlocking Journal entries. The mysteries of the Umbral Deeps, the Behemoths, and even Ramsgate itself are revealed as you explore.
TRAINING GROUNDS
Try out new weapons, learn combos, test loadouts, or help new players! The Training Grounds have arrived, giving you a chance to get comfortable with different gear and maximize your damage output. If you’ve ever wanted to try out a build without putting your face in the path of an Embermane, this is the place to do it.
NEW
- Client-authoritative dodging is now live. This will improve playability for players with high latency, and more clearly communicate when you’re invulnerable during a dodge.
- Dauntless is now available in Russian on all platforms except PlayStation 4, which will be coming in a future update.
- The Trials aether strikers skins (Victorious and Champion) are available in Lady Luck’s store.
- The main menu has been reworked to match the scale of the game we have now, and to allow for some of the new features we’ll be releasing in the future. It’s also much easier to navigate on consoles.
