This week, Arc Games and Cryptic Studios announced that their latest update to their long-running free-to-play MMORPG ‘Neverwinter’ will see its latest update “Red Harvest Part II – The Soul Collector” launch across PC, PlayStation, and Xbox consoles on 25 November.
Red Harvest Part II will take players deeper into the heart of Thay as they face off against Szass Tam’s dark, undead monstrosities, and twisted experiments.
Despite the successful uncovering of Szass Tam’s plans for deification and rescuing the captured Celestial, the Lich has struck back and lashed out at the fleeing members of the Resistance in Tyraturos. Teaming up with Xuna, who seeks to rescue the missing Harper Tesser, the Hero of Neverwinter is tasked to return with Xuna to Tyraturos, rescue as many of the Resistance members as possible, and escort them to a place where they can continue their work. Szass Tam must be stopped before he completes his Ritual of Ascendency!
Have a gander below for more details on Neverwinter’s latest update. The Red Harvest update first launched back in late Spring.
Heroes embarking on this epic journey to Thay will discover plenty of new in-game content, such as:
New Adventure Zone – Doomvault Remains:
Hiding out somewhere beneath Thaymount, right under Szass Tam’s nose, Red Harvest II: The Soul Collector will allow players to explore what remains of Szass Tam’s dreaded Doomvault. Explore abandoned vaults, caverns, and never-before-seen Doomvault laboratories where the red wizards continue to engage in disturbing magical research and experiment on the unwilling!
Dive into exhilarating challenges, defeat Named Encounters to unlock a portal to a perilous battle royale-style arena where the true threat must be faced whilst avoiding a deadly storm that shrinks the safe ground beneath your very feet.
Beat the greatest Heroic Encounter yet: while The Soul Collector presents six new Heroic Encounters, none are as menacing as Rise of the Necrotitan. Forged from the fused flesh of massive zombie hulks, this towering Undead Colossus looms over the battlefield. Hold back the Red Wizards and their thralls before the Necrotitan awakes and becomes your worst nightmare.
New Trial – Soul Harvest
As the conductor of Thay and the orchestrator of the Rebellion’s demise attempts to ascend to godhood, it’s up to you to finally bring Szass Tam’s reign of terror to an end. Step into Szass Tam’s extra-dimensional Dreamvault – a desolate void where three distinct biomes stand as a reflection of Tam’s future domination of Faerün. Prepare for a high-stakes trial of coordination, strategy and endurance, where only teamwork can halt the ascension of the Arch-Lich Regent of Thay.
With three difficulty levels, every adventurer can test their strength:
Normal Mode – Accessible to all and part of the Random Trial Queue.
Advanced Mode – A stepping stone for mid-level players looking to push their limits.
Master Mode – A relentless challenge for the most skilled adventurers, emphasizing mechanics over raw stats.
