Forgotten Gods Expansion for Grim Dawn Launches March 27

Crate Entertainment has announced a release date for Forgotten Gods, the next expansion pack for their hit action-RPG Grim Dawn.

Forgotten Gods will be launching on March 27th for Windows PC via Steam and GOG for $15.99. You can check out the trailer above.

The expansion adds a new region beyond the borders of the Erulan Empire, and a new endlessly replayable game mode called Shattered Realm that allows players to face off against hordes of challenging enemies to earn unique loot and rewards. There’s also tons of new enemies, bosses, legendary items, Rune Augments that can be applied to Medals, and the Oathkeeper class.

Please be aware that the Forgotten Gods expansion requires Ashes of Malmouth to play.

Here’s a rundown of the expansion:


Journey beyond the bounds of the Erulan Empire, traversing burning sands, lush oases and volcanic wastes to reach the sun beaten ruins of a city with secrets that should never have been disturbed. The flames of a forgotten god have been rekindled, sending ripples through the Eldritch realm and sowing terror even among the Witch Gods themselves. Discover hundreds of new unique items, unlock all-new mobility powers and venture into a brand-new game mode with endless replayability.
