Grimguard Tactics, the dark fantasy tactical RPG, is launching its first major update featuring a brand-new character and exciting gameplay additions! Arriving later today, the update introduces the Acolyte, a unique class with a distinct playstyle. Check out our Grimguard Tactics review to see if it's right for you, but here's a sneak peek at the update's highlights:

The Acolyte, a cunning zealot wielding a hand scythe, utilizes enemy blood for healing and control. Players can experience the Acolyte's unique abilities through a new event, exploring an exclusive dungeon and completing special missions with enticing rewards in the in-game shop.

This update also introduces a new Trinket system, allowing players to significantly enhance their heroes' power and strategic options. Craft these powerful trinkets at the Forge using various materials to bolster your roster and conquer challenging encounters. The Acolyte and the Trinket system combine to offer a powerful new way to strategize and overcome obstacles.

A Familiar Darkness

Grimguard Tactics draws clear inspiration from Darkest Dungeon, a comparison that isn't necessarily negative. The addition of a trinket system, a common feature in many RPGs, provides a convenient way to utilize crafting materials and significantly boost your heroes' capabilities – a necessity for survival in the grim world of Terenos.
