Dungeon Defenders: Awakened

Chromatic Games have announced that Dungeon Defenders: Awakened will be leaving Early Access and fully launching on Steam, along with console release dates.

As detailed in the press release, v1.0 will feature six difficulty settings from Easy to Massacre, the latter offering unique foes. The modes include Pure Strategy Mode to fight off invading foes, or Mixed Mode with randomized enemy spawns. In addition, 1.0 includes new pets, more challenge maps, and two new posses (Ancient Dragon and Goblin Mech).


Finally, the press release sates that “The Nintendo Switch version will be available in Q3 2020, with PlayStation 4, Xbox One releases coming in Q4 2020 with new free DLC maps, equipment, pets, and a fifth playable hero.” Whether this means the DLC and other new content will be coming to the PC version as updates or paid DLC is unknown.
