Neverwinter: Dragonbone Value is launching on consoles on February 1st, 1 week earlier than initially planned. The PC version went live earlier this month and introduced the new Dragonbone Vale zone, a new grappling hook mechanic, new story quests, and more.
Neverwinter: Dragonbone Vale introduces the following new features to the D&D themed action MMORPG:
Dragonbone Vale Adventure Zone & Campaign – In this new adventure zone, Heroes of Neverwinter set out from the encampment of the four allied factions and work their
way through four distinct regions of the Sword Mountains: Whetstone Thicket,
Quellwater Tarn, Wyrmbone Marrows, and Scaleblight Summit. The adventure zone
includes the following unique features:
Grappling Hook Mechanics - For the first time ever in Neverwinter you can
grapple around specific, designated spots of the Dragonbone Vale adventure
zone with a grappling hook, allowing vertical exploration and new ways to travel
the zone. These mechanics won’t be available in other zones outside of
Dragonbone Vale at this time.
Faction Reputation System: By completing faction-specific quests, such as
heroic encounters, defending supply lines, gathering dragonsight treasures and
more, players can build reputation with each of the four factions,which they can
use to unlock various rewards and features, including faction cosmetics,
companion gear, and more.
The Crown of Keldegonn Trial – A new 10-player trial where heroes confront Valindra
and the dracolich Palhavorithyn atop the dwarven ruins of Keldegonn. Players can begin
to unlock the trial on January 18.
Scaleblight Mythal (Epic Adventure) - The story’s culmination in Sword Mountain’s
Scaleblight Summit region. Members of the Shield of the North Alliance assault the
location of the great ritual and fight to stop Valindra and the Cult of the Dragon from
invoking Rite of the Dracolich to bring undeath to all dragons. Adventurers will have
access to this content on PC beginning February 8 and on consoles starting March 8.
Enchantment and Refinement Overhaul - This update brings quality of life
improvements to the refinement system and all-new enchantments.
