Ashes of Vados introduces a brand-new boss encounter with a drastically different heroic boss variant that will conclude the final story thread of Death’s Gambit: Afterlife. In addition, Ashes of Vados will test your mettle with the ultimate platforming challenge level and a new Arena with both boss rush and horde mode. The DLC will also spice up new runs of the game with alternative game modifiers that completely flip the experience on its head, with modes like randomized items, heroic forced and hardcore mode. All of these new challenges come with their own set of rewards, so go out there and conquer Ashes of Vados.
