Fantasy and adventure game fanatics may be aware of the original Gloomhaven game, which came out in 2017. And over the last six years, Cephalofair Games have been working hard behind the scenes to prepare for a second edition of this beloved board game: Gloomhaven’s Second Edition.
Since the release of the original Gloomhaven board game, producers have been gathering data and opinions from current fans and expert testers to develop their second edition. Isaac Childres, the founder of Cephalofair Games, went on record to say that ‘this new edition is going to be even more fantastic!’. Therefore, we expect the new edition to have come up with solutions to the more frustrating parts of the game and offer an improved gaming experience.
The second edition is a follow on game to the original Gloomhaven board game. So the backstory and difficulty level in the second edition are set to be the same as in previous editions. However, like with most second-edition games, the story has been expanded to include more detail with new material and altered design. The new game, along with all previous editions, now has over 500 miniatures in total.
The artwork is one of the most significant changes between the first and second editions of the game. According to the official announcement from Cephalofair Games, the second edition has a new selection of components, tiles, encounters, and role-play opportunities for players.
The second edition of Gloomhaven is not just for veterans to this board game - anyone can play! Newbies can jump into the game, while veterans will enjoy the improved story and revisit a loved game. Anyone who loves fantasy or immersive role-play games will likely get a kick out of playing the new Gloomhaven game.
The second edition of Gloomhaven has overcome the crowdfunding state of its launch and has now released its newest product. Cephalofair Games announced their BackerKit Campaign would go live June 20th for the second edition as well as the additional miniatures. We are so excited about the launch and can’t wait to get out hands on the game. Keep an eye on TableTopFinder for any further updates to the release date, or pre-order the board game for yourself on 20th June 2023!
