Black Barrow. Haunting my dreams, shadowing my days.
Deep within, I fear what lies below - what we faced. Yet, here I am again, alone.
I'm the Brute, I kill what people fear.
I’ll kill my fear too.



Lo and behold, mercenaries!
Here is a quick summary of what you can expect from this DLC:
A considerably harder experience than the base game.
You’ll definitely have to git gud this time.

• 17 new delightfully brutal scenarios, each tailored to a specific base game Mercenary.
  
• 17 new items, usable only by one specific Mercenary.
  
• Items & scenarios reworked and rebalanced by Isaac Childres himself to better fit the digital version.
  
• New unique enemies and challenges.

You can already wishlist the Solo Scenarios: Mercenary Challenges DLC today on Steam, right below!!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1958560/Gloomhaven__Solo_Scenarios_Mercenary_Challenges

To be able to spectate or play the Solo Scenarios: Mercenary Challenges content in multiplayer co-op, every player has to own the DLC.

• You can only gain access to the DLC missions at Level 5 in the Story Campaign.
  
• When a mercenary reaches Level 5, they are able to undertake their own Solo mission.
  Alternatively, you can gain access to the DLC unique rewards in the Guildmaster Mode when completing the 2nd Story mission for each mercenary.
  
• You only gain access to the items if you complete the missions, these items cannot be sold or bought by other characters.
  The mercenary has to attempt the missions on their own and if they are successful, they are awarded their specific Solo item. This item cannot be sold or bought by other characters, and any later mercenaries of the same class must also complete this mission to unlock it.
  
• You can play these missions online in a Multiplayer game, but your co-op companions will be in spectator mode, watching you hopelessly try to survive.
  
• You can also play these missions offline. Then, to import the fruit of your hard labor to any game, it will be automatic if you’re the host, and if you are not the host and join a game, the host has the option to import any Gold, XP and Item you gained in the Solo Scenarios.

Note - DLC enabled save games cannot be reverted to non-DLC games.




Each of the 17 mercenaries of the base game have access to their own tailored scenario.
This does not apply to the Jaws of the Lion DLC mercenaries.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

You can expect about 20+ hours to finish the 17 new missions.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

The Solo Scenarios: Mercenary Challenges DLC for Gloomhaven will cost 4.99$ / 4.99€.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Although we cannot share anything at this point, we will keep supporting the game after the release of the Solo Scenarios: Mercenary Challenges DLC.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

All the languages of the base game will be supported: English, German, French and Spanish.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

The DLC will be available on Steam and GoG for Windows & MacOS.
