[previewyoutube=VHtW6pQksM8;full][/previewyoutube] Hello Everyone! Today we’re looking at some of the new stages in the upcoming expansion, [i]Seekers of the Storm[/i]! [i]Seekers of the Storm[/i] allows players to explore some of the lost regions by bringing six new stages across ancient Lemurian temples to intense showdowns on a [b][REDACTED][/b] with plenty of secrets to uncover.

With new terrain, lush foliage, and crumbling structures, each environment offers a fresh take on the classic [i]Risk of Rain[/i] you know and love.

This Tier 1 stage features a sprawling central plain and a crater surrounded by sections of complex architecture to dodge and fight around.

Each potential teleporter location has its own cover and paths for navigating enemies, giving skilled players options to dodge high-damage early boss attacks–like Wandering Vagrant's explosion and Stone Golem's laser–even with slower characters. Survivors like Railgunner, Huntress, Void Fiend, Acrid, and [b][REDACTED][/b] can utilize their high vertical mobility to move between the stage’s tier system with ease. At the same time, less mobile characters can speed across the flat central plains to grab items.

Survivors must be vigilant and prepared if they expect to weather Petrichor's new challenges."

These variants add a lot of unique flavors and provide an additional level of difficulty as players try to get their grasp on each version.

This is a free update for anyone who has [i]Risk of Rain 2[/i] and will come out soon. We dive deeper into Update Devotion in the [i]Triple-i Initiative Showcase[/i].
