Welcome to the Chaos Wastes
Chaos Wastes is the next chapter in the story and players need to reach the Citadel of Eternity. There’s a catch, however, as only those who are pure at heart can finish the journey. For players, it means they must leave whatever armor they have and go back to basics. If you think that’s difficult, then be prepared for more because the region is rather unpredictable, and only a true pilgrim can navigate through it without a map.
New Features
In addition to expanding the story of the game, the expansion also offers these new features:
