PORTAL KNIGHTS is Getting Biggest Update Ever

DLC expansion and a free update now available

London – Publisher 505 Games and developer Keen Games are adding TWO huge additions to the hugely popular and award-winning sandbox action RPG, Portal Knights. The first addition is the DLC ELVES, ROGUES, AND RIFTS, where the mysterious moon of Faynore will offer never-before-seen content, including: 

  • A new Elvish race! Play as an Elf, complete with new customizable ears, Elvish hair styles, skin tones, and more!
  • A new Rogue class! Play as a Rogue and explore new talents like stealth and backstabbing, along with dozens of new, craftable weapons and armor.
  • The Roguelite Rifts! Extensive dungeons that are randomly generated upon entry – home to devious traps and puzzles. Time in the Rifts is limited, and they require absolute mastery to obtain the best loot! Players can explore them with friends for their best shot at survival.
  • The Elvish City and Rogue’s Guild. Brand new environments packed with quests and political intrigue.

Players who buy the DLC will be able to invite their friends to join them in these new areas so they can preview expansion content for free.

The FREE update for all PC and console players is the QUESTING UPDATE, which contains:

  • The Mage’s Guild! A new quest city full of characters and Elysian lore.
  • Dungeon creation! For the first time, Creative Mode players will be able to place monsters and create traps and puzzles with new logic blocks, buttons, pressure plates, and more.
  • Public multiplayer games and user permissions. PC and PS4 players can now choose to host or join public multiplayer games that will be visible to all players – not just friends. To help protect your buildings and treasure, hosts will be able to set user permissions.
  • New Quest Log. Players can keep track of their quests as they travel from island to island and can choose which ones to track.
  • Much, much more! Hundreds of quality of life updates, bug fixes, performance optimizations, and other surprises.

The “Elves, Rogues, and Rifts” DLC SRP $9.99 and the FREE Questing Update will be available on Steam and Xbox One today, June 27th and will be available for PS4 on Friday, June 28. Both updates will also be released on Nintendo Switch shortly thereafter in summer. Check your store of choice for discounts and promotions.
