Whereas it is had a number of hotfixes already this 12 months, Darktide might be getting its first vital 2024 replace in late April. As developer Fatshark explains on its weblog, this replace—known as the Path of Redemption—features a reinvented penance system. Beforehand, penances had been achievements that sometimes rewarded gamers with a beauty. Below the revised system, the factors earned for finishing them will progress you alongside a monitor of beauty rewards together with, “frames, insignias, trinkets, emotes, finish of spherical poses, character cosmetics, and weapon skins” in addition to backpacks, titles, and cosmetics primarily based on the outfits worn by the characters in Darktide’s trailers and artwork.
So as to add some much-needed selection to missions, they’re having new “puzzles, challenges, and collectibles” added to them, although the weblog put up does not go into specifics on these. It does point out one new enemy, a Dreg Tox Bomber who throws blight grenades, and a brand new situation known as “Pox Fuel”.
The Path to Redemption replace will even add an choice to revise your character’s identify, voice, background, and peak by paying ordo dockets. It is known as the Character Scourge, which sounds enjoyable and painless.
Fatshark emphasised earlier within the 12 months that “this isn’t our full plan for 2024. We might be including new parts to Darktide all year long as properly together with (however not restricted to) new missions, new enemies, new weapons, new circumstances, and new options alongside stability updates, high quality of life additions, together with another surprises which we’ll share in due time.” Hopefully these of us ready for a continuation of the story, in addition to extra map and mission selection, can have one thing to stay up for as properly.
