New DLC for Across the Obelisk Releasing Next Week

Publisher Paradox Interactive announced a new DLC for roguelite deck-building RPG Across the Obelisk. The upcoming DLC, titled Necropolis of the Damned, will be available on PC via Steam on December 2, 2025, for $19.99/£16.75/ €19.50. To celebrate the DLC release, the base game will be discounted by 40%. In addition, a free update will release alongside the DLC, adding a Practice Mode, which lets players test any deck, card combo, or experimental setup without risking resources.

Necropolis of the Damned takes players to The Dusk Lands, which becomes available at the end of Act 3 as an alternative to The Void. In addition to a new zone to explore, the DLC adds a new dungeon, enemies, cards, mechanics, and more. It lets players control new multiclass heroes Velarion and Nevermoor. Velarion is a Blood Mage, which blends healer and mage roles and specialises in bleed and leech curses. As a Death Knight, Nevermoor is a healer-warrior hybrid, whose actions generate runes that offer various buffs and effects.

Across the Obelisk sees players creating a party and taking part in turn-based tactical combat. It features single player and co-op with up to three others, as the party takes its own path that branches across the world based on their decisions. The base game features sixteen playable characters, over 500 upgradeable cards, and over 200 items. Across the Obelisk is currently available on PC and Nintendo Switch.
