Wartales: The Pits PC

Wartales: The Pits is the third major expansion for the 2023 RPG game with strategy elements, titled Wartales. The authors of the original, Shiro Games studio, are behind the development of this DLC.

Plot

Wartales: The Pits allows us to descend into the depths of the so-called Black Market, an underworld controlled by the wealthiest bandits from the Five Kingdoms. The expansion focuses on the titular pits, or special arenas where warriors engage in bloody life-and-death battles, trying to prove their worth. The DLC allows us to join this brutal competition, and as a result - try our hand at fighting for respect and wealth.

Gameplay

For the purposes of Wartales: The Pits, five arenas have been prepared. In each pit we have to fight five specially prepared battles. Individual battles differ in terms of the types of enemies we must face, as well as the traps set for the warriors, the elements of the environment that threaten them, and the conditions that make combat difficult. The dangers include clouds of poisonous gas, spinning blades, lightning, fire, and even complete darkness.

All of this makes each skirmish a separate experience, for which one should properly prepare, applying the optimal tactic, as well as leading the correct team, equipped with the appropriate gear. And speaking of equipment - as we progress, we increase our reputation, which gives us access to new weapons, single-use items, and recipes.

In addition, the authors allow us to replay already completed battles at a higher difficulty level. Completing all the battles in both modes can grant us a special reward.

Game modes

Similar to the base version of the game, in Wartales: The Pits we can play alone or in cooperative mode over the Internet.

Technical aspects

Wartales: The Pits is not a standalone expansion, so it requires the base game Wartales.
