Crate Entertainment has announced that Grim Dawn will be receiving the Fangs of Asterkarn expansion when v1.2 arrives. The team did not reveal any details about the release date, but they did provide fans with a peek at what they can expect.
In Fangs of Asterkarn, players will travel into the “hardened wilderness” to the west where they will take on the Kurn. The goal is to discover the dark legacy that haunts the area and its people.
For those who love to hear the details straight from the source, the replay of yesterday’s Twitch stream is below.
