Cryptic Studios and Gearbox Publishing have announced that Neverwinter will be receiving its 23rd content expansion when Dragonslayer launches on June 14th. For the first time, the new content will launch simultaneously on all platforms including PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
Dragonslayer is based on the new Fizban’s Treasury of Dragons as revealed at the last D&D Direct. Players will become one of Smerdiuk Dragonbane’s dragonslayers as they head into lairs to hunt down chromatic dragons from the D&D universe. Those who join the MMORPG to enjoy the new content will also be able to enjoy all previously-released content up to and including Dragonslayer.
The new module will introduce a brand-new Dragon Hunt system, which lets adventurers battle various chromatic dragons – from icy White Dragons to cunning Green Dragons – of different ages (Young, Adult, Ancient), with each dragon type presenting its own unique set of challenges to overcome, lairs to explore and rewards to acquire. The draconic foe content doesn’t end there, players will also discover Neverwinter’s deadly creatures have been completely revamped with all-new attacks, spells and the ability to take to the skies. In addition, the D&D fan-favorite “Temple of Tiamat” trial featuring the beloved dragon queen, Tiamat, will get a major content update bringing new mechanics and challenges, along with Normal and Master difficulty options.
