and that’s all we’re going to say about that for now. In Darkest Dungeon 2, we’re giving players a glimpse of the supernatural apocalypse twisting and distorting the world beyond the estate. Will the sequel be focused on the Estate and its surroundings, or a new location? We think it’s easier to do that while remaining somewhat small.ĭarkest Dungeon's corrupted setting is an inseparable part of its appeal.
We put a lot of value on finding the right people and giving them an environment to be motivated creatively. Ultimately, a game is only as good as the team you have making it. However, the small team agility and creativity is still key, and we look to keep that. We can afford to be a bit more sensible this time around, and have been growing staff to match scope more reliably and realistically. It took its toll on us physically and mentally, just like an epic Warrens clearing run. We created a lot of Darkest Dungeon with only five people on the team.
