Kingdom: Two Crowns is a great game to unwind with after a long day, and it’s been very well-received by players. On Steam, the game boasts 26,553 reviews, with 91% of them being positive. Recently, it received a new expansion called Call of Olympus, inspired by Greek mythology. The DLC is available on PC, Xbox One/Series X, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, and mobile devices.

Call of Olympus details

The Call of Olympus DLC was released yesterday, on October 8th, and is priced at $8.99 on Steam. The expansion introduces a new quest tied to Mount Olympus, which players must ascend, with the approach being entirely up to them. According to the Steam description, the expansion includes:

  1. Temple and Quest Islands, featuring unique challenges, treasures, and powerful artifacts.
  2. New mounts, such as Cerberus, Chimera, Pegasus, Donkey, and more.
  3. Battles against a dangerous Snake enemy, with Hoplites serving as your soldiers, and the ability to command your own fleet in combat.

It’s worth noting that the Call of Olympus DLC has received mixed reviews so far. Players are mainly complaining about bugs and game freezes, with some unable to even start the game. However, since the DLC was just released yesterday, the developers are likely to address these issues with upcoming bug fixes.

The whole Kingdom Franchise is currently on sale. For instance, we can buy:

  1. Kingdom Eighties for $5.99.
  2. Kingdom: New Lands for $1.49.
  3. Kingdom Two Crowns: Norse Lands for $4.89.

DLC price and changes in Patch 2.0

Let’s start with the updates introduced in Kingdom: Two Crowns Patch 2.0. After installing it, players can now make up to ten saves and toggle the tutorial on or off. The developers also addressed some minor bugs and made a few balance adjustments to improve gameplay.

It's also worth mentioning two new cosmetic add-ons. The first, Regent’s Royal Wardrobe, includes skins like the Eloquent Queen, Dark Templar King, and Mycelium Monarch. The second add-on, Archon’s Royal Wardrobe, features the Celestial Queen, Minotaur King, and Trojan Monarch skins. Each of these packs is available for $2.99.

Right now, Kingdom: Two Crowns is on sale for just $3.99 (regularly $19.99) on Steam. According to SteamDB, over 8,000 people are currently playing the game, which is a solid result.
