The Hamlet serves as the game's hub, where players are automatically sent to at the end of every quest. Gameplay is effectively divided into two core sections: the Hamlet and the Dungeons. Careful character placements, financial knowhow, and patience are all larger keys to success. Relying entirely on the RPG mainstays of levelling up ultimately leads nowhere. Neglecting the latter will only make the former harder. This is an RPG, yes, but it's also an item, character, and town management simulator.

Failure occurs most of the time, not due to overwhelming difficulty, but out of unpreparedness. Rather, it's hard because it's punishing. It's doubtful anyone would ever deny that, but it isn't hard for the sake of being so.

There will also be a new Town Event called “A Day Long Awaited.” This will give players a Stagecoach with more recruits.Īdding to all of this, Sony has also offered a 20% PlayStation Plus discount for two weeks for both consoles. Players will start with two trinkets, while three more must be found. This means they can also make characters more susceptible to other abilities and afflictions. These items, while can enhance your characters, also work like a double-edged sword. However, there will be more content in the form of trinkets. The game will also support cross buy and save features, meaning buying it on one console will ensure you have it on the other. Darkest Dungeon will launch on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita on September 27th.
