Neverwinter: The Heart of Fire Announced

The Heart of Fire, the next bit of new content coming to Perfect World Entertainment’s D&D-inspired MMORPG Neverwinter, should be arriving to the PC platform on November 6, 2018, bringing a new Skirmish, storyline, and an overhauled profession system.

And because utilizing the voice talent of tabletop podcasters and livestreamers seems to be all the rage lately (Obsidian had Critical Role, Beamdog got Dice, Camera, Action), this new update will feature some characters from Penny Arcade’s Acquisitions Incorporated show. Here’s the announcement trailer:
