Inhuman Bondage DLC

The Inhuman Bondage DLC introduces a new mini-region, The Catacombs, and a new playable hero to Darkest Dungeon II, the fan favorite and original Kickstarter backer-assisted designed character: The Abomination. The Catacombs invites players to plunge their stagecoach beneath the Kingdom to face a corrosive, oozing threat. This is a high-risk, high-reward region featuring a faction of new enemies and new items, and will bring variety and challenge to both Confessions and Kingdoms. The Abomination brings unique mechanics, trinkets, signature items, palettes, weapon kits, and a fully voiced origin story, including playable flashback encounters.
