Grim Dawn version v1.2.0 is going to be entering the public playtest later this Summer with an expected release in the late Summer/early Fall. This update is, to put it mildly…a big one. We have gone through literally hundreds if not thousands of data entries to bring you quality of life improvements and breathe some fresh air into the game.

Any updates for it on Xbox to finally take advantage of the XSX?

That's good news.

And btw, even though I did enjoy the campaign in D4 a lot, I think I have to say that I enjoyed Grim Dawn a little bit more..

Seems this 1.2 update is mostly about QoL changes and add more game customizability options. I'm curious on whats 'beyond' it tho.

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Insane that they’re still making significant improvements to this game after it launched 7 years ago. A new expansion would be amazing.

I wouldn't mind a UI rework entirely for consoles. Loved Grim Dawn on PC, but it's the only game I've refunded on Xbox. Text was hilariously tiny with seemingly no way to enlarge it and overall I just felt like very little effort went into the port.

1.2 is out now! Have started a new character, been a few years since I've played.

Need a solid discount on the DLC's now though!

Better than Diablo

Oh cool. These guys are the best in the genre.

This is another dev that doesn't seem to give a damn about their console audience. Does this even finally optimize the game for Series X because it doesn't sound like it. So many top down rpg's- whether arpg or crpg's are half assed on console while still charging full price. They're typically a couple updates behind the PC too. Pretty gross if you ask me.

I play on PC but yeah, that kind of thing sucks. Like Tekken 7 is still only 720p on Series X with slow af loading. Even though they kept adding the new content packs and patches they have kept it all at original Xbox One quality. Poorly supported cash-in ports are lame.

It's funny how some projects you support when they are in kickstarter style stages keep going and going, producing more and more and others are just scams. You just never know.

That’s a shame. One issue can be who the publisher is on console as devs often go through intermediaries. And the publishers refuse to pay to patch and devs can’t patch like that.

For example Pathfinder Kingmaker was never fully patched up because the publisher didn’t feel like paying. Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous got patched (probably still behind PC to an extent, not sure) because the devs self published this time.

I'm gonna play Grim Dawn again. I have 125 hours in the game. I know not much but for me its plenty. Update 1.2.0.0 sounds sweet especially "All loot tables have been overhauled with 30-60% less items dropping. To compensate, loot quality and iron bits drops have been significantly increased."

 

[MagiusNecros]

I'm just going to wait for the expansion that's going to drop next year.

Checked it, still 1080p on SX with framedrops. Did receive the new patch.
