Terrinoth: Heroes Of Descent combines real-time exploration with deep, turn-based tactical battles and can be played solo or in co-op.

Set in the troubled lands of Terrinoth one year before the events of Descent: Legends of the Dark, Terrinoth: Heroes Of Descent invites players into a new chapter of the saga, where fractured realms and encroaching darkness call for a new generation of heroes. Players will form a party of adventurers and journey across perilous locations throughout Terrinoth, uncovering a fully original storyline that expands the lore of the board game series.

Terrinoth: Heroes Of Descent has been created for both long-time tabletop fans and players discovering Terrinoth for the first time. Familiar factions, threats and themes return in a new form, while the narrative, characters and missions have been built so that no prior knowledge is required to follow the story.

“As fans of Descent, stepping into Terrinoth has been both a huge responsibility and an incredible joy,” said Bruno Chabanel, CEO of Artefacts Studio. “With Terrinoth: Heroes of Descent we wanted to capture the feeling of a tense tabletop dungeon crawl and translate it into a tactical RPG that flows naturally on PC and consoles with a multiplayer cooperative mode to accurately convey the atmosphere of the board game. It’s easy to pick up, but there is always another strategy, another synergy or another build to discover.”

“This project sits exactly where we love to be: at the crossroads of strong IP, character-driven stories and smart, meaningful gameplay,” said Cédric Maréchal, CEO of New Tales. “We’re excited to partner with Artefacts Studio and asmodee, and we can’t wait for the Descent tabletop community, and tactical RPG fans in general, to discover this new way of becoming heroes of Terrinoth.”

“Seeing the Descent board game world of Terrinoth come to life in a full video game experience is something fans have been asking for over many years,” said Brian Mulcahy, Head of Franchise Development at asmodee “Terrinoth: Heroes of Descent respects the spirit of the tabletop game while opening Terrinoth to a wider audience of tactical RPG players. It’s a meaningful new step for the franchise.”
