Overhype Studios recently announced ‘Blazing Deserts’, the third DLC for the acclaimed turn-based tactical RPG Battle Brothers. Blazing Deserts will take players to a new area of the continent: a new land of burning deserts and lush jungles, to the south of the lands their bands of mercenaries are familiar with. The new DLC also introduces a new unique culture, loosely based on medieval Arabian and Persian cultures. With new lore, equipment, contracts, legendary locations and beasts, as well as a new late-game crisis, Blazing Deserts will be the biggest DLC ever released for Battle Brothers. Blazing Deserts is expected to be released in Q2 2020; more details will be announced soon. Stay tuned to the Steam store page of the game for dev blogs with new details of the DLC in the weeks to come.
