Darkest Dungeon: The Color of Madness Release Date Announced

The Color of Madness DLC for Red Hook Studios’ Darkest Dungeon will be arriving on June 19, 2018, according to this announcement on the game’s website. This cyan-hued expansion is priced at $4.99 or your regional equivalent on Steam and promises a good chunk of fresh content that includes a new endless challenge mode, as well as new items, enemies, and buildings. Here’s the official description:

Some hateful shard of alien origin has streaked through the night sky, crashing into the old Miller’s farm on the outskirts of the Hamlet! Those unfortunate enough to witness the Comet’s arrival have been blinded by what they can only describe as a shifting, ephemeral hue of damnably abrasive intensity. There has been no word from the farm in a fortnight, save for the unearthly groaning that echoes from the ruin of the mill…

“When men shake hands with time, time crushes them like tumblers; little pieces of glass.”
― Abu al-Ala al-Ma’arri

Features:

• Endless Quest: Survive as long as you can while getting lost in time and space, confronted by unending waves of enemies new and old, pushing ever closer to the crash site of the Comet.
