Fantasy Flight Games Announces The Betrayer's War - Descent: Legends of the Dark’s Next Chapter

Are you up for the challenge of securing the future of the land in Fantasy Flight Games' second act of their epic best-seller Descent: Legends of the Dark? The Betrayer's War sees a collision between the armies of Waiqar and the servants of Dragonlord Levirax. Players are tasked with keeping the peace between these groups to ensure the safety of Terrinoth, while also keeping a watchful eye on the Uthuk Y’llan.

The Betrayer's War game expansion shares similarities to the original Descent: Leggende delle Tenebre as a cooperative game for one to four players to explore the fantasy land of Terrinoth. Nevertheless, don’t be fooled by your expertise in the board game’s first act; The Betrayer's War features new challenges in the form of new enemies and a unique story to navigate. This second edition will be greater than ever, arriving at the end of 2023.

However, hope is not lost, and your characters have grown considerably since act one and learned to harness their strengths. In The Betrayer's War, the six familiar heroes have taken on additional abilities. You can see their newfound strengths and strategies on the game’s hero cards, complete with new character art.

Each hero you play will come with various abilities on each side of their character card. Fantasy Flight Games have also chosen to grace each character with new health and stats to give you more gameplay options and outcomes. In addition, your team can utilise the characters' new skills.

For example, Brynn’s character will have the opportunity to react differently depending on the weapon she has for the play, making this game a more ferocious fight with more tactical options than ever before.

And as this is a second addition to Descent: Legends of the Dark, the players can use some of the cards they unlocked during the first act, such as the hero’s weapons.

As mentioned, the six hero characters have received further upgrades and abilities. Although, don’t start celebrating too soon, as your hero characters aren’t the only ones to receive new upgrades in The Betrayer’s War. The enemies are more formidable than ever, and the game makers' addition of the ‘stress’ condition may require you to work tactically to ensure your heroes come out on top in any of the potential variations in the story.
