Overview[ | ]
The Forgotten Sanctum will be available in November 2018, and will test your party’s allegiance and morality in a quest to help (or obstruct) the great wizards of Eora. Will you befriend, betray or befuddle these venerable mystics as you uncover secrets lost to the generations? Your decision will ripple across the Deadfire Archipelago.
When a violent tremor shatters the islands of the Deadfire, the greatest wizards in Eora seek out the aid of the Watcher. The archmage Maura has vanished into the depths of a newly opened dungeon located in the Black Isles and threatens to awaken what lies forgotten there. Follow Maura's trail and determine the fate of one of the Deadfire Archipelago's most closely-held secrets.
- Traverse an expansive dungeon built into the flesh of a sleeping god.
- Encounter the highest-level challenges yet faced by the Watcher and their companions.
- Scheme with or defy the wills of Eora's most powerful wizards.
Features[ | ]
- The Temple of Revelation, a huge subterranean dungeon beneath the Hall of the Unseen on The Black Isles, serving as the primary setting of the expansion and its namesake.
- Critter Cleaver: As a fun bonus to The Forgotten Sanctum's core content, the DLC also includes the Critter Cleaver - a way for Watchers to get the pet bonuses they like most with the pet appearance they like most. Watchers of any level can find the Critter Cleaver in the Dark Cupboard in Neketaka and finally travel with a pet that has the perfect stats and appearance they so desire.
