Vagrus – The Riven Realms: Old Acquaintances is Out Now!

The time has come to release our next DLC, Old Acquaintances, which adds Javek and Sedarias to the main game, two Companions we’ve met in the prologue scenario previously. Both of them changed drastically in the time that passed since we first saw them and both offer extensive questlines to tell their stories, replete with new NPCs, enemies, allies, lore, and rewards.

The DLC also contains the Freelancers’ Guild, a specialized mercenary organization that allows you to recruit new hirelings (from a selection of four) to round out your crew. They can be found in the four major cities of the North and the Onyx Outpost.

Alongside the new content, the accompanying Patch (detailed below) contains a number of improvements and fixes to improve the general experience of Vagrus.

Patch 1.170 is LIVE
