Will the expansion be a new exe?

Just curious if the expansion will be a new executable or not. I was considering doing An Ocean of Blood and Tears at some point but won’t bother if the expansion is not a separate exe, as I’ll try and get it through natural farming on one of my characters when the expansion comes out.

as far as I am aware it will be same as the hidden path and different patches, and what I heard from a previous dev stream, they will add maybe a small patch or 2 to make sure the expansion will be added smoothly and without any problems to the game because it adds several new features and mechanics

Okay. Would be nice to get a dev to confirm this - I am assuming it’s not like like TQ / TQ:IT with separate steamapps/exes then?

Not sure what separate exe’s have to do with Achievements, but the expansion will be applied directly to the base game, not launched separately.
