Gloomhaven Is Now A Steam Video Game

, , , , , , , 0

There’s now more than one way to play the dungeon-crawling RPG Gloomhaven. Originally born as a tabletop RPG, it soft-launched in video game form on Steam Early Access two years ago. Since then publisher Asmodee Digital and developer Flaming Fowl Studios have been building up its content, and as of today, the complete and finalized version of Gloomhaven has officially launched. The Gloomhaven game plays much like its cardboard-based real-world counterpart, mixing tactical RPG elements with randomized dungeon crawling. It’s main attraction is an Adventure Mode with roguelike mechanics and turn-based combat. There’s also a co-op mode for two to four players. But the finished game has 95 new stories and event missions to delve into, on top of the 170 missions of the Guildmaster campaign that were added to the Early Access version. That equals over 200 hours of gameplay, with thousands of abilities to master, gear to collect and monsters to slay. After two years of Early Access, mercenaries will now be able to explore the entire board

Gloomhaven is a tabletop game, a video game, and now a comic book. Gloomhaven: Fallen Lion will be a one-shot comic released through Source Point Press and Deep Water Games that expands the lore with a new story written by Travis McIntyre and illustrated by Tyler Sowles. “The world of Gloomhaven is one of the most rich, detailed and unique in the fantasy genre. And somehow, there was still a ton of room for us to stretch creatively, adding story details, and creating new characters,” says McIntire. “Collaborating on the first Gloomhaven comic has been a privilege and putting a tiny bit of our own stamp on a world loved by so many people has been amazing. I can’t wait for people to get it in their hands!” The City of Gloomhaven can be a tough place to make it as an adventurer and being in the right party is key to survival. The Jaws of the Lion are the top of the mountain in the hierarchy of the city,

First, Gloomhaven was a tabletop game. Then it became a video game. Now Isaac Childres’ creation is invading another medium: comic books. Gloomhaven: Fallen Lion is a one-shot book released through Ox Eye Media and Deep Water Games that expands the lore with a new story written by Travis McIntyre. “We’ve all put a lot of thought into what exists in the canon of Gloomhaven, and what Isaac’s vision is, and how story arcs fit into that and where there’s room to create,” says Travis. “I think we are going to be coloring in some areas that were left a little gray previously and adding shades and variations to bits of lore that previously existed.” The City of Gloomhaven can be a tough place to make it as an adventurer and being in the right party is key to survival. The Jaws of the Lion are the top of the mountain in the hierarchy of the city, but their latest job goes sideways, and Anaphi, the mindthief, is to blame!

There are those who say the tabletop game industry will be hit especially hard this year….that might be news to Isaac Childress, whose sequel to Gloomhaven launched its crowdfunding campaign last week. Frosthaven has since become one of the most successful Kickstarter campaigns ever. The campaign for Frosthaven hit three million dollars in just three hours. That’s correct, a million dollars an hour. The pace has slowed since then, but in one week it has doubled that amount and, as of this writing, currently sits at $6,656,655. And climbing! The original Gloomhaven was also crowdfunded by Childress, and made a sweet haul on its own, taking in $4.4 million during its campaign. The game itself is one of the most robust out there, packing in hundreds of hours of gameplay in a 20-pound box. The end product became so successful it was translated into a video game in 2019. The tabletop version earned high praise and a sequel seemed inevitable. And indeed, here it is. A copy of Frosthaven, when
