Crate Entertainment has revealed the latest expansion for its Hack and Slash Action RPG Grim Dawn, ten years after the game’s initial launch.
Grim Dawn: Fangs of Asterkarn will be the final expansion for the game, and the developer claims it will be the largest one to date.

Fangs of Asterkarn gives Grim Dawn an all-new region, double the size of previous expansions, the shapeshifting Berserker mastery, and the new Ascendant mode, which turns the entire campaign into an endgame proving ground that will challenge even the most seasoned of players.
The journey into the land of the Asterkarn will span over 6 square kilometres, which is 190% as big as Ashes of Malmouth and 250% as large as Forgotten Gods.
Asterkarn features new environments that span from snowy peaks to breathtaking hot springs. These new environments are also riddled with secrets to uncover and hundreds of new treasures, such as New Epic items, unique Legendary items, and Monster Infrequents.
Grim Dawn is an apocalyptic fantasy world where humanity is on the brink of extinction, iron is valued above gold, and trust is hard-earned. The game features complex character development, hundreds of unique items, crafting, and quests with choice & consequence. So adding even more on top with this latest expansion makes Grim Dawn a hell of a time sink.
Alongside the massive new expansion’s release, Grim Dawn will get a QOL facelift for all players in the free v1.3 update. The update will feature an overhaul and expansion of the player’s Stash so that players have a more intuitive inventory management experience as they return to their playthroughs or create a new character.
Fangs of Asterkarn will be available on Steam, GOG, and the Humble Store for $18.99.
