Grim Misadventure #136 - Enter the Korvan Plateau

Here we are with another Grim Misadventure, the #1 locally sourced source of Grim Dawn development update news. Last time, we announced one of the awesome new quality of life features we’re working on for Forgotten Gods. But much still remains to be revealed for the upcoming 2nd expansion to Grim Dawn.

In more immediate news, you’ll be happy to know that v1.0.6.0 testing has begun and we expect to roll out the latest free content update in the coming weeks!

Today though, we’re going on a tour…keep your arms and appendages inside the car because we are entering the unknown…of the Korvan Plateau.

Far from the reaches of the Erulan empire, long before the first Erulan banner was even raised, a culture thrived in the oases of the Korvan Plateau. A culture deeply rooted in tradition and faith, where an Oath made upon the temple steps was worth more than the gold that lined its statues and walls.

Here was a land of purity by fire, of virtue through zealous faith to a god of unfathomable power. But then tragedy struck, the land was split asunder with violent eruptions and the people scattered to the winds to escape the enraged wrath of their patron. Or perhaps it was the land itself reacting to the agony of its celestial benefactor. None living today could tell you for certain, no human anyway.

The civilization crumbled into ruin, its riches plundered by thieves and opportunists, but something has awakened deep beneath the sands. A fire once again burns within the temple and new eyes are drawn to this once sacred place.

What will they discover? What terrible secrets await?

Im floored. That is so beautiful! It’s much better than Egypt! :stuck_out_tongue:

Oh yeah, pretty good!

Holy crap… I think my jaw just dropped somewhere in the middle of all that sand!

Amazing job with this desert area, guys! It’s beautiful!

Those locations are looking stunning.:stuck_out_tongue: I do hope to see some large dunes like the Sahara.

5/10… Too much sand ~ IGN

Looks great!

So awesome! Seriously can’t wait for this expansion.

Weryy nices… I cant wait to hunt down some sandclaws :slight_smile:

These look amazing… A blend of Egyptian and western America deserts, with a hint of tropics added - cant wait :smiley:

I wonder if that dangerous looking purple flower is edible? =)

Holy shit, it’s gorgeous

But seriously that artwork looks great, nice variety.

Amazing work. I feel the heat. Texture of the reddish stones is brilliant. And dont forget oddly strange lighting and heavy windy stormy atmosphere with eerie sound background with more eerie music :). Big thanks !

Looks great!

Desert areas have always been my favorites, so these screenshots have me pretty excited.

Titan Quest Memphis…

The environment artists do some fine work. I’m suitably hyped up for the expansion.

Amazing level design

absolutely bee-utiful. here’s hoping it even manages to surpass the aesthetic design of ugdenbog!

also it sounds like we’re going to get some more lore about Ulzuin, perhaps we’ll finally learn how and why he turned into a God Going Their Own Way. :cool:
