Red Hook Studios has shared that they are bringing Darkest Dungeon II to Xbox Series X|S on July 15. This follows two separate previous announcements that the game would also be coming to PlayStation platforms, as well as a release on Nintendo Switch all on that same July 15 release date. Darkest Dungeon II is now available for pre-order on the Microsoft store for $39.99, 38,99€, £33.74 with a 15% launch discount.

Like on Switch and PlayStation platforms, the Xbox Series X|S release of Darkest Dungeon II will offer the Oblivion bundle that will allow players to purchase the base game and its “The Binding Blade” DLC simultaneously, though people can purchase them separately as well.

Red Hook Studios mentioned that Darkest Dungeon II will receive a new ‘Kingdoms’ mode in a free content update later in 2024; this puts players under a time limit to defeat a threat that threatens to destroy the kingdom in a set amount of time.
