Two New Areas to Dive Into

First up, the Netherguild update adds two unique floors to explore.

The Sewers: Expect to face swarms of pesky pests and automated cleaning machines. Watch out for the ancient sewer water — since it slows your units and adds an extra layer of strategy to the fight.

These areas are not just about the combat — they’re also full of loot and mysteries that add to the thrill of each descent.

Four New Classes to Master

The update doubles the number of classes in the game, with two tied to the Nobility faction and two to the Commoners. Here’s what’s coming to Linux and Steam Deck:

The Duelist (Nobility): A master of Bleed and Incapacitate effects, the Duelist is perfect for those who like to keep enemies on their toes (or off their feet).

The Alchemist (Nobility): A healer with a twist. This class buffs allies, takes advantage of enemy status effects, and delivers a massive single-use heal that scales with health.

The Healer (Commoners): A straightforward support class that’s all about keeping your team healthy and free of negative effects. If you want a pure healer, this is your pick.

The Hero (Commoners): This tanky powerhouse absorbs damage, buffs allies, and builds up for a devastating blow to crush enemies later in the fight.

These classes add fresh strategies and synergies, letting you build the perfect party for your underground adventures.

Each expedition is a mix of careful planning and unpredictable discoveries, with procedurally generated levels ensuring no two runs feel the same.

Early Access Journey
