Tell them Thalya’s coming, and Hell’s coming with her! Dungeons 4 is catching a steam engine to the Wild West in its first DLC, The Good, the Bad and the Evil, on August 8, 2024, for Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC, taking you through a brand-new, western-inspired area of the overworld known as “The West.” The new frontier is bristling with opportunity for The Absolute Evil, featuring new enemies, environments, and challenges, including a 5-mission campaign that will revisit an old rivalry between the Dark-Elf Thalya and the Dwarf Queen Brynnhild, culminating in a duel at high-noon.

Brynnhilde and her army of do-gooder Dwarves gather their forces as the last bastion against Thalya and the uprising of The Absolute Evil. The feud reaches an epic climax as the minions of Evil battle against Dwarven gunslingers to determine the fate of the Overworld. But it won’t be easy; the Wild West is a dangerous place for even Thalya and her most formidable and evil Little Snots, and you will need to contend with powerful new enemies wielding weapons dreamt up by the finest Dwarven blacksmiths. Check them out below!

  • The Pistolero is a pistol-wielding outlaw especially adept at close range battles. They draw their guns faster than you can say “Brynnhilde” and unleash their full clip with a fury before needing to reload.  
  • The Machine Dwarf is equipped with rotary guns powerful enough to pierce through even the most well-armoured Evil with maximum efficiency and speed, but with a slow enough reload time you might be able to take them out before they lay waste to larger areas.
  • The Crack Shot is capable of firing at long distances with extreme precision zoning in on one specific target.
  • The Brewmaster does more than just brew beer for his thirsty compatriots, but weaponizes the malted grain to damage to enemies and heal nearby allies.

And if these new daunting enemies weren’t enough of a challenge for the Absolute Evil, the mighty (irritating) Dwarves and their new gunslinging factions have turned to the tracks to capitalize on their new steam locomotives, which roar and chug through the prairie. Outfitted with more dynamite than you can shake a stick at, the Dwarves are pulling out all the stops to try and stop Thalya from conquering the Overworld.

But, luckily for Thalya, the Train-Enthusiast Evil is a long-time Railway Empire 2 fan and has been conjuring up an idea for a locomotive of its very own. Traverse the West and research the necessary science to uncover the boundless resources of the dusty plains to build your own locomotive capable of destroying the Dwarves once and for all and put it to use for the good of all that is Evil!

Dungeons 4 – The Good, the Bad and the Evil releases on August 8, 2024, with the base game available to play now with Xbox Game Pass and PC Game Pass. So, there is only one question left to answer – do you feel evil, punk?

Dungeons 4 – The Good, the Bad and the Evil

Kalypso Media

Dwarves, steam locomotives, and a showdown at high noon – what could possibly go wrong? Dungeons 4 – The Good, the Bad and the Evil awaits the Absolute Evil and his more or less dedicated General Thalya with (train)wagon loads of evil work to do. Led by their fearless queen, Brynnhild, those pesky dwarves have infiltrated a new part of the Overworld, the West, and kidnapped the Council of Little Snots. This is unmistakably screaming for a proper treatment of Evilfication™!

In this latest adventure, the Only-too-familiar-with-hardships Evil has to face new enemies equipped with pistols, sniper rifles and rotary guns, and … a beer-brewing beast of a dwarf. But of course, the Cunning Evil is prepared and leaves you well-equipped with new traps and building options to protect your stony dungeon heart!

• Wicked Wild West: Dungeons 4 – The Good, the Bad and the Evil takes you into ‘the West’ with 5 new fully voiced missions in a brand-new setting. Thalya must pursue the Dwarven Queen Brynnhild and prepare for an epic showdown at high noon!

• Reinforcement of The Good™: Four new dwarven units spice up the battle between Evil and Good – the Pistolero, the Machine Dwarf, the Crack Shot and the Brewmaster.

• The Train-loving Evil rejoices: Steam locomotives roar through the prairie, filled to the brim with dynamite-throwing, gun-slinging dwarves. Crack their armour and unleash your inner train enthusiast, building your own train to punch the dwarves’ final ticket.

• Vermin alarm! Manavores, Spiders and Lavalumps are joined by the “delightful” Giant Scorpions that skulk through your dungeon and the overworld.

• Home Sweet Home: The Forces of Evil have enhanced your dungeon with new traps, like the lava-spitting Hydro-Lava-non or the Steam trap cooking heroes like dim-sum, and building options, like Floor Grates enabling you to build on lava or water.

• The return of the Dwarf Queen: Brynnhild is back in the game (and gosh, she even has a twin) and she’s using that steamy steel monster train against YOU!

• Dressed to kill: Thalya takes this literally! She goes full Wicked Wild West and even brings some new passive skills into the fight against the Good.

The Absolute Evil and its trusted *cough* servant, the Dark Elf Thalya, return in Dungeons 4 after the events of its fabulous predecessor to bring about their triumph over the forces of good once more.

Build a cozy and comfortable Dungeon to suit your creatures’ needs and rule over them, then send them out into the Overworld to kindly remind the good people living there that the Absolute Evil rules over their lands. Gather your Evilness in new and dynamic ways and unleash it upon the lush green forests and plains of the Overworld to turn them over to the dark side. But make sure that your Dungeon is well-secured by traps and defended by your creatures, for those pesky Overworlders won’t just twiddle their thumbs while you turn their land into the Absolute Evil’s most pleasurable holiday paradise.

But what is that noise? “Gold, gold, gold and gems, gold and gems and gold!” The ancient song echoes throughout the underworld, accompanied by the clanging steel of hammers and axes. The Dwarves have arrived to claim their share of the abundant resources and together with the Elves and Humans of the Overworld, they send out their raiding parties to find the Dungeon’s heart.

Dungeons 4 keeps the spirit of its predecessor, but everything is now bigger, better, and with even more dynamic Evilness™.

Features:
• Everything is better with Dwarves™: The Dwarves have arrived to build their underground strongholds and the hardy little fellows (although they don’t like being called that) compete with the Ever-Expanding Evil for space and resources.

• It makes your Dungeon great again: Dungeons are up four times larger than before and there are many more creatures who wait for the All-Commanding Evil’s orders to conquer the Overworld. Now the time has come for massive armies and truly sprawling dungeons!

• Ripe for the taking: The Overworld is bigger than ever before. Gain Evilness by beating Mini Bosses like the obsessively harmonious Unicorn and use it to transform the Overworld into stunning biomes of pure evil.

• New and shiny: An ability-based Perk system for Thalya, the Absolute Evil’s trusted *cough* and most loyal subordinate, grants her impressive new powers. The Absolute Evil can now enjoy taking over the world, governing the creatures and slapping subordinates even more with the customizable Evil Hand.

• Minions, everywhere: The Horde, the Undead and the Demons wait to do the Absolute Evil’s bidding, with more creatures than ever eagerly following the gesturing Evil’s orders, and Snots will play a much more prominent role this time.

• Many ways to tell the story: A long campaign, narrated by the beloved English Narrator from previous titles, as well as several skirmish maps all to challenge your rule as the Absolute Evil.

• Change the world: Spread your Evilness across the Overworld to bring lush and green environments over to the dark side, now shining even more vibrantly and beautifully evil as you spread your evilness across many new biomes.

• Work together, slay together: 2-player co-op multiplayer with both players managing one Dungeon together. All maps from the campaign and the skirmish mode are playable in co-op.
