Last month, it was announced that Red Hook Studios’ Darkest Dungeon would be the latest video game to receive a board game adaptation. And over the weekend, the official Twitter page gave a quick preview of the miniatures for the board game coming from Mythic Games.

Mythic Games in turn posted the same screenshot, as well as announcing that the board game will be receiving a Kickstarter later this Fall for fans to get a jump start in supporting the project. Mythic Games also had a bit of the preview of the gameplay during the final day of GenCon Online, which you can see in the video below (around the 30:15 mark).

Much like the video game, Darkest Dungeon in board game form is a campaign game, where you’ll be questing into dungeons to battle monsters, cultists and more. As you fight, you take on deadlier foes and battle bosses before being allowed to enter the Darkest Dungeon and defeat the final boss. The board game looks to remain as faithful to the video game as possible, using many elements from the video game, but tweaks things where necessary.

As for the sequel, Red Hook admits that things have been quiet, but want to share more “when the stars are right”.

Once the heart of the powerful Vampire civilization, the Ruins of Mortium now lies in ruins, teeming with the cult-like remnants of Dracula’s forces. Players will encounter the Draculin, creatures tainted by Dracula’s influence, and face off against his Vampire Generals. The ultimate challenge awaits as players journey into the depths of Mortium to confront Dracula himself. While battling through his forces and disrupting dark rituals intent on reviving the ancient Vampire king, players will uncover ancient powers and prepare for the ultimate showdown against the tyrant himself.

Ruins of Mortium is just one piece of the new content for V Rising when it launches in full. Here’s a rundown of what to expect:

  • Explore a new deadly endgame zone: The Ruins of Mortium
  • Experience dynamic endgame events
  • Fight a new breed of foe and new V Blood bosses
  • New weapons, A new tier of equipment, and magic improvements
