Cryptic Studios has just released new episodic content for Neverwinter: Avernus that brings a special limited time campaign: The Redeemed Citadel. The content is available now on PC and will launch at a later date on Xbox One and PlayStation®4.
For the new campaign, The Redeemed Citadel, players will find that the powerful ruler of Avernus, Archdevil Zariel, is newly redeemed and free from Asmodeus’ bondage as she seeks to redress the balance of her dark deeds. In pursuit of this goal, Zariel desires for the Bleeding Citadel to be restored to its former glory — for it to once again serve as a bastion of angelic strength in the Nine Hells.
In this epic campaign, rather than taking on weekly hauls or campaign tasks, Neverwinter players instead need to work together to reach four major milestones and reforge the citadel. By completing challenging missions in the citadel, such as slaying deadly devils and demons on the surface of Avernus, players will advance the progress of the citadel’s restoration and earn Zariel Favor, currency that can be redeemed for various rewards.
Below is all of the content included in the new update:
- New Area – The Redeemed Citadel
- Parts of the Citadel will slowly unlock as server-wide milestones are reached over the next couple months.
