It’s always good to see the free-to-play games out there being hit with updates. Neverwinter is one of those which has seen regular new additions added in order to keep the gameplay fresh and exciting. Let’s hope that the Swords of Chult update does the same!
Announced today, the Swords of Chult is the latest update to become available for Neverwinter on Xbox One and PS4. This update for the free-to-play MMORPG set in the Forgotten Realms brings a dynamic, endgame Skirmish to Port Nyanzaru, as well as PvP, inventory management and refinement system adjustments for all players.
The Swords of Chult expands the Tomb of Annihilation’s content, bringing the jungle’s many threats to Port Nyanzaru. Endgame players will find themselves battling against dinosaurs, the undead and servants of Acererak in “The Merchant Prince’s Folly” Skirmish, which promises to change each time it is played.
Those adventurers of all levels can also experience the competitive side of Neverwinter in a fresh way with reworked PvP experience that features all-new rewards.
Full feature list as follows:
- “The Merchant Prince’s Folly” Skirmish – Port Nyanzaru is filled with riches and the enemies of Chult want them. A defense of the city and its inhabitants is in order in an all-new, dynamic five-player Skirmish for adventurers at the endgame. Save the city for new rewards!
- PvP Updates – In this update, the Tenacity stat has been replaced, PvP items now scale even more with the activity, plus armor penetration has been changed further and control effects now have diminishing returns. Swords of Chult also introduces a new set of PvP gear, a permanent Solo PvP Queue and more.
- Inventory Management Updates – In an effort to improve item management, new sorting options have been incorporated into the UI allowing players to sort all items, identify all items, sell all treasure and tweak other display options.
- Refinement System Changes – Adventurers can also look forward to a more streamlined refinement experience, allowing them to bulk convert items into RP, as well as manage them incrementally as before.
- Campaign Progression for Alts – Avid Neverwinter players with multiple characters now have the option to create a Signet of Patronage for several endgame campaigns. These may be applied to alt characters to progress through supported campaigns much faster.
If you haven’t yet played Neverwinter and wish to, then now is as good a time as any. The free-to-play action MMORPG features fast-paced combat and epic dungeons – two things that are sure to get the pulse going.
It is available right now on Xbox One, PS4 and PC. Check it out.
