Elves of Amberwald adds a brand new map with the living forest of Amberwald, where the trees feed off the blood of its foes, where vast magical roots run beneath your heroes’ feet, and where nightfall ignites the land with life, vengeance, and vitriol toward any who threaten it or its people. The new DLC also introduces Elves as a brand new playable character class, with their mastery of nature, the hunt, and a new defensive Seeds mechanic giving players unique opportunities to turn the tide of battle.
The Last Spell’s evil hordes remain as ruthless and hard-hitting as ever, but Elves of Amberwald, like Dwarves of Runenberg (the game’s first DLC offering) before it, brings refreshing new strategic options for tackling the game’s malevolent monsters. Harness the magic of the forest to your advantage, experiment with three brand new Elven weapons, and Seed the battlefield with traps galore as you take on a new challenge within the game’s established, deeply rewarding framework.
Also dropping on April 22 is a free The Last Spell base game update that sees big changes to the Apocalypse system with Apocalypse 2.0, bringing more personalized difficulty options. Alongside this, a highly requested update to game balancing will see weapons, perks, and Dwarves Perks balancing, as well as quality of life upgrades and bug fixes for smoother play.
One year since the launch of the game’s first DLC, Dwarves of Runenberg, the defense of the last bastion of humanity continues with Elves of Amberwald, launching on PC on April 22, 2025, and available to wishlist on Steam today.
