We encourage players who want to help test these changes and provide feedback to switch to either the "coming_in_hot" beta branch on Steam or the Experimental branch on EGS. Your save will carry over when you switch to that branch.
IMPORTANT: Once you switch your branch you MUST stay there until we push the update to the retail branch for everyone. Due to the nature of these changes, if you attempt to switch back to the retail branch too early you will be unable to start or continue a new expedition. We always recommend making a backup of your save file!
Modded Content is accessible differently this time around for Darkest Dungeon II! We’ve invested extra effort to maintain base-game functionality and ease of access to the game as we have designed it for you to play! Now upon launching the game you can access the dark side of the mountain!
On this side of the mountain, you can copy and migrate any of your profiles over to begin playing with your favorite mods! You can copy and rename a profile as many times as you wish to try out any combination of mods!
Each profile can have its own set of mods set to active and you are able to set the order they will be loaded to hopefully have control over mod conflicts if they arise!
As we stated before this initial release of official mod support is limited in what can be changed, but we’ve been blown away by what the creators have managed to accomplish with the tools we’ve provided. Speaking of tools, we have also released the official Darkest Dungeon II: Mod Tools on Steam! This library item contains a Unity project that is necessary for making and publishing mods for the game. We’ve created a guide on how to use it and it is now being maintained by the same group of mod creators who’ve been testing it with us!
Please note, this our first playable version, and as such many of the art assets are missing or are temporary. Expect added visual polish as we get closer to our retail release.
