Mountain of Flame is LIVE

We are excited to announce that Neverwinter’s new module, Mountain of Flame is available now on PC, PlayStation and Xbox consoles. This major update for the free-to-play Dungeons & Dragons MMORPG brings back the Mount Hotenow Adventure Zone – originally introduced when Neverwinter launched in 2013. With the return of this adventure zone, adventurers will discover the zone has been completely revamped and re-populated, making Mount Hotenow bigger and better than ever before. This re-imagined zone brings back a classic dungeon, the “Lair of the Mad Dragon”, in a whole new way as all the monsters and bosses within the dungeon have been reworked. Additionally, the module brings quality of life improvements, most notably, a new battle pass that lets players earn rewards, such as a new companion, “Eric the Cavalier”, based on the character from the 1983 Dungeons & Dragons cartoon TV series, Dungeons & Dragons.

In the Mountain of Flame module, the smoking volcano, Mount Hotenow, is rumbling once again and threatening to erupt. The mighty fire giant Gommoth, who lives deep within the mountain, plans to use the growing magma to free the sleeping Primordial within the volcano. Adventurers must band together to do quell the flames and battle against Gommoth and his forces before the powers of the primordial destroy all of the Sword Coast!

Heroes who take on this blazing adventure will find plenty of new content in Neverwinter, including:
