Darkest Dungeon 2 update expands its intense, strategy game style Kingdoms mode

Darkest Dungeon 2 was already a brutal, challenging affair, but the introduction of its Kingdoms mode took things to a new dimension. Bringing the core DD2 experience into a strategy game-esque setting, which is laid out like a tabletop board game, it’s dropped its turn-based combat and gloriously grim aesthetic into a fresh experience. Developer Red Hook promised that more content drops, known as ‘modules,’ would arrive for Kingdoms, and now it’s made good on that pledge as its second expansion, Secrets of the Coven, has just arrived.
