Some lead to the Necropolis. 🏰
This winter, brave the gates of the Necropolis of the Damned, a new, major expansion for Across the Obelisk, arriving December 2nd, 2025!
Enter a gothic descent into an alternate Act 4, where witches roam, vampires reign, and the ruins of a cursed kingdom echo with ambition and sorrow. This expansion introduces a new zone, two new playable heroes, and a fresh set of challenges that reshape your path in some of the darkest ways, leading you to experience a brand new ending to the game.
Long ago, the Count of the Necropolis made a bargain with death — one that would grant him eternal life, but cost him everything else.
Now, his castle lies in ruin. The Queen’s soul is trapped between realms. And a Princess, missing from her caravan, may be the key to restoring what was lost.
Summoned by blood and shadow, your party crosses the threshold of the Black Portal. What awaits is not salvation… but a kingdom of bone, mist, and grief.

🎭 Inspired by Dracula and classic gothic horror, this DLC is both homage and reinvention; blending eerie darkness into a world of cursed bloodlines, desperate bargains, and corrupted legacies.
