  • Major Update - Patch 1.3 - 11 October 2020

    Patch 1.3 Hey there! We've been hard at work making improvements and additions to Griefhelm since launch. Based on community feedback, we've focused on combat feel, hit detection, and adding more interesting options to the combat experience. But we also found time to add a new game mode that we think you'll love. We've departed from the original content update schedule a good bit, so we'll get an updated calendar soon. But we plan to continue making improvements to campaign and multiplayer through the end of year at least, as well as adding content well into next year. Hope you enjoy! Gameplay Enhancements New Ability: Dash Players are able to dash or dodge backward or forward with Left Alt (LB on Xbox Controller) This can be used to move away from an opponent to avoid a swing, or through your opponent to force your opponent to turn around New Ability: Dagger Everyone has a dagger equip…

New mechanic: Combo Timing You can gain an attack speed bonus on your next attack if you input said attack…
