Grimm: Dark Legacy is a free-to-play multiplayer game that draws heavily from the rich lore of the TV series, combining tactical survival gameplay, wide-scale exploration and co-operative multiplayer experiences as you seek to become a formidable Grimm hunter.

Set several hundred years before the current NBC TV series, Grimm: Dark Legacy will explore the rich back-story of the Grimms and their many foes. The game will see players traveling through the Old World meeting increasingly tougher challenges as well as teaming up with other players to survive the Wesen onslaught.

Mixing combat and survival gameplay, Grimm: Dark Legacy starts players off as inexperienced hunters with little knowledge or weapons. Over time, players must explore the different regions of the world, completing tasks and foraging for potions and raw materials so that they can grow in confidence and power, making the transformation from the hunted into the hunter. Players who gather the right combination of items can then craft bombs, traps, and weapons to help them boost their stats as well as hunt and dispatch their foes.


A core component of Grimm: Dark Legacy’s gameplay will be the comprehensive detection system that players use to track & hunt Wesen. Smells, noise, and tracks can all be detected and followed, but the tables can be turned because Wesen use the same system to hunt and kill players. Grimm Hunters will need to employ their skills of detection and evasion to search for Wesen signs while masking their own, helping them gain the upper hand.

Interested fans and any intrepid Wesen hunters to sign up at the official website.

Recently renewed for a sixth season on NBC, Grimm is a drama series inspired by the classic Grimm Brothers' Fairy Tales. Portland homicide detective Nick Burkhardt (played by David Giuntoli) discovers he's descended from an elite line of criminal profilers known as Grimms, charged with keeping balance between humanity and the mythological creatures of the world. After his discovery he increasingly finds his responsibilities as a detective at odds with his new responsibilities as a Grimm.
