Wolcen’s launch in early 2020 was both a huge success and a missed opportunity. Server issues at launch stunted the ARPG’s incredible early adoption. Since then, however, developer Wolcen Studios has kept its nose to the grindstone. This past December,Wolcenreceived its 1.1 update, tagged asWolcen’s Chronicle I: Bloodtrail. Now, Wolcen Studios is getting ready to expand on Chronicle I with a new content update, which it’s calling the Bloodstorm.
Wolcen: Bloodstormwill be another substantial expansion to the already significant content available in theDiablo-like ARPG. A teaser trailer for Bloodstorm highlighted some of the key areas Wolcen Studios will expand on. These include new dark and fantastical environments to explore and quest through, new skill damage-type modifiers, visual improvements for existing skills, and 30 new expedition levels for players to progress through.

There are smaller improvements confirmed for Bloodstorm intended topolish theWolcenexperience, too. One key area isWolcen’s dodge rolls, an area criticized by players before for not functioning fully. For example, fans should expect changes to the problem of not being able to dodge roll through enemies.Wolcenwill also be adding functionality to allow pets to gather gold, which could potentially please anyTorchlightfans. A new endgame armor project is also teased.
The one detail that Wolcen Studios isn’t ready to tease regardingWolcen’s upcoming Bloodstorm DLC is its release window. All that Wolcen Studios is willing to say is that the content update will arrive soon. Considering howrecently Bloodtrail was released, it may be some time yet before Bloodstorm arrives. But perhaps Wolcen Studios has upped its content release schedule andWolcenwill get updated sooner than expected.
