Gloomhaven 1.0 available now
Wed, 20 October 2021



From gloom, only death and greed emerge… and occasionally, the wild Gloomhaven v1.0

A band of battle-scarred mercenaries violently opens the door of the Sleeping Lion. Not the best tavern in town but not so shabby as to deter bounty hunters, ruffians and other unsavoury folks. Once seated, a beer in each hand, their leader clamors with a distinctive deep voice:
“We’re back lads! Do you smell this? The scent of opportunity! We’ve left the city for two years, we’ve become Guildmasters and taken our fair share of loot, but Gloomhaven has called us home.”
With a quick glance, he notices several people whispering and counting their gold whilst looking around.
“It seems like work is back on the menu.”

Soon enough, a heteroclite group of small-time adventurers approaches him, seemingly confused.

“Well, well, what do we have here? Green blood! Whaddaya want? A contract? An advice? A hug mayhap?”
Without giving them a chance to answer, the veteran mercenary grabs one of them by the collar and mumbles:
“No hug for you, but let me give you a piece of advice, if you’re looking for mercenary work, we’ve heard there’s a Valrath looking for hired blades capable of tracking down some stolen documents. Go see her if it is in your line of work. Now get lost!”

GLOOMHAVEN 1.0 RELEASED



Esteemed mercenaries and guildmasters, will everyone please gather round?
Gloomhaven is finally 100% content complete and ready to be enjoyed by everyone out there. You will be able to play the entire board game campaign as well as the guildmaster one.

MacOS Release & Development Update
Thu, 25 November 2021

MacOS users rejoice! And more development news.

MACOS RELEASE DAY HAS COME UPON US

Good day, glorious adventurers!


Today is generous with us, as Gloomhaven is finally available on macOS.
*YAY*


We worked hard to release a macOS version that would be fully stable and of a quality level we deemed appropriate for Gloomhaven players.
As of right now, we are happy to announce that we have met the standards we set for the macOS version to be released, hence this brilliant update.
We are very excited to be giving macOS players the opportunity to join us on Gloomhaven.
Welcome!


What about the specs tho?

You will find below the minimum and recommended specs to run Gloomhaven on your beloved and dear macOS!

MINIMUM

OS Version: Big Sur (11)
Processor: 2.7GHz
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Graphics: 4 GB

RECOMMENDED

OS Version: Monterey (12)
Processor: 3.2GHz
Memory: 16 GB RAM
Graphics: 8 GB




DEVELOPMENT UPDATE

MERCENARIES!

We heard you.
We received lots of feedback regarding the enhancements and randomness issues, and thanks to you all, we have been able to carefully evaluate and discuss these topics.
The next major update coming in December will thus implement the following changes:

Enhancements:

We are working on implementing the permanent enhancements for the retirement system from the original board game to the Gloomhaven Digital Campaign. This will be a toggleable option in the campaign that will allow a mercenary to keep their enhancements after they’re retired. Consequently, if you or another member of your party wants to play the same character, the unlocked enhancements will remain.
In the non-permanent enhancements mode, the enhancements’ pricing will be reduced and rebalanced to allow you to create new build ideas. These changes were approved by Isaac Childres and his team.

Game variant - reduced randomness:

This board game variant allows players to reduce the variance in damage caused by the x2 (or “Bless”) and x0 (or “Curse”) attack modifiers by instead treating them as a +2 and -2 modifiers respectively.

> These are two of the numerous improvements and changes we will be bringing in the upcoming update next month.
We felt it was cool to let you know we were working on these specific two as there has been a huge demand and tons of feedback about it, and since we’re cool, too. <

Is the DLC going to be a standalone campaign?

No, you are able to integrate the content of the DLC (4 mercenaries, 10 items and 25 new scenarios) with a simple click of a button into an existing Story campaign without having to start over.

Note - DLC enabled save games cannot be reverted to non-DLC games.
If you play in the Guildmaster mode, once converting the save or starting a new game the 4 mercenaries will be immediately available and the items will be added to various treasure tables.

How long is the game going to be at launch?

Meet Voidwarden and Demolitionist

Greetings, fellow mercenaries!

Now is the time for you to meet the remaining two mercenaries from the upcoming Jaws of the Lion DLC: Voidwarden and Demolitionist.

As a reminder:


Each of these characters brings something new to combat within Gloomhaven Digital, including their own unique powerful ability when they reach level 5 so be prepared for spoilers about their gameplay and stop reading now if you want it to be a surprise!

[Note: some parts of this article are hidden under black lines to avoid spoilers - Hover over them if you wish to reveal the content!]

The important thing to know is that these characters are available to use in your core Gloomhaven scenarios and core mercs can take part in Jaws scenarios, neither are limited to their own content, so the amount of combos has increased massively.



Control Freak

The Voidwarden has access to a wide range of abilities, suited to almost any occasion, as long as that occasion involves an assortment of fangs, claws and various rusty weapons pointed in your direction. She excels however at control, both via classic crowd control abilities, debuffing multiple enemies or by directly controlling ally or enemy actions. The sheer range of options for her top and bottom half abilities can be intimidating at first.

Also, due to her ability to buff her allies (often with minor drawbacks) she performs better in larger parties where there are more mercs to aid and more enemies to exterminate.

JAWS OF THE LION - NEW DLC AVAILABLE NOW
Tue, 17 May 2022



The first ever Gloomhaven DLC is out. Join the adventure now!

You and your group are sitting down for some cold brew in the Sleeping Lion after a hard day's mercenary work. Protecting that merchant was too troublesome... Suddenly a peculiar Orchid covered in an innumerable amount of crystals approaches and sits down at the table.

Looking from under her shadowed hood, she begins speaking.
"So you're the the mercenary group I've heard about?"
She looks around the table.
"Not that it says much coming from the people I heard it from. But I'd like to know what kind of feats you can muster."
She eyes each of you intently, measuring your value to her.
"Prove your true worth." She snaps "Accept the challenge that is coming and uncover all that lies beneath the veil..."

A chill runs down your spine at her final words, but before you can consider responding to the ludicrous comments of this crazed Orchid, she disappears in an instant. Your group stares quietly at one another, wondering what kind of wild and harrowing adventure awaits you all...


JAWS OF THE LION RELEASED
