Dev Blog: The Voices of the Lex

[Chaos791]

Interesting dev blogs as usual, just too bad it lacks some recording of previous voice acting to spice things up.

Is there gonna be any content for people that won’t buy the dlc?

[MarxistDictator]

New content? Buddy we just got a new map 6 months ago, that’s supposed to sate your desires for at least a year.

Dont care, show the skill tree

[kqgee]

Cool stuff!

Give us behind the scene sessions Please!

Yes, your character gets to interact with players who run around declaring who they are the law too.

Jokes aside, I think there is a mission board update for everyone, for ease of use/narrative.

I would like some new maps if we’re asking!

[Panda420]

And when will they say something about cross-save? We need it

Beside the pleasure of Arbites interactions, all the free stuff spoken of so far is as follows.

Free Update coming June 23

Launching alongside the Arbites Class DLC on June 23, Darktide will receive a free update designed to offer a more structured narrative experience for new players as well as a rework on difficulty progression and selection

• Improved onboarding and narrative experience:
  • A curated mission path will guide new players through Tertium, introducing key characters, locations, and threats across escalating difficulty tiers.
  • Missions will feature increased story context, with debriefs showcasing the impact of strike teams across Tertium.
  • Seasoned players will be offered the option to re-experience the improved story of Darktide from the start.
• Changes to difficulty progression and selection:
  • Introducing a reworked difficulty progression system: players will now unlock higher difficulties by demonstrating skills, not just by leveling up. Progression will be tied to completing a number of missions at your current difficulty, rewarding mastery over time played.
  • Mission board changes: all missions currently in rotation will now be available at every difficulty level. This update significantly broadens the mission selection for players at any tier, offering greater variety and more meaningful choice when deciding how (and where) to fight.
