The second major content patch for the open-world RPG Wartales is now live0, and it’s called the Great Gosenberg Update.
In the Great Gosenberg Update, players will travel to the City of Gosenberg in the province of Grinmeer. What was once considered a beacon of hope, culture, and art is no longer safe because a despicable crime has been committed in the Upper City - the murder of Broker Wylla Ald Hoevendorp.
Players are tasked to lead an investigation and bring the accused to the Brokers’ Palace. They will have to channel their inner detective; piecing clues together and gathering evidence to present at the trial to ensure that the criminal gets what they deserve.
Aside from the intriguing storyline, the latest content patch for Wartales raises the unit level cap to 11 and enemy level cap to 12. Furthermore, players can now unlock Level 10 skills, including the ability to change weapons during combat.
