Like any roguelite, knowing where you’re going is vital to plotting your next adventure. Displayed in hand-drawn parchment, the map will help you chart your progress and show how much you’ve explored a certain area. It indicates treasures, enemies, resources, and loot left behind by foes.

Having introduced players to the Guard, Shaman, and Raider classes in the demo, players can look forward to an ever-expanding roster of new goblins to get to grips with (look below!).

Up first is the Hunter which uses axes, spears, and arrows. Next is the Mystic, a studious magic user that’s fragile, but wields a trusty wand with ease. Lastly, we have the Bandit, a melee support class that commands other goblins.

Finally, no fantasy adventure is complete without an epic soundtrack. Music from composer Peter McConnell – famed for his work on Monkey Island and Hearthstone – has now been added.

The #NextFest update is set to go live at 9:00am PST on June 15th, with Goblin Stone set to enter into Early Access later this year and is set to launch December 2021.

Will you be the one to save goblinkind from extinction?
