Nacon and Passtech Games have released a new paid DLC for Ravenswatch, this time adding the character Kintaro. The shorthand to this particular addition is to give you someone who is into chaotic combat, as you're literally getting an axe-wielding warrior riding a giant bear. We have mroe info about them below as they are available for $8 starting today, if you believe they're worth the cash to add.

Kintaro Arrives to Wreak Havoc

Hailing from Japanese folklore, Kintaro is a powerful hero armed with a gigantic axe. He can fight while riding his bear, Kuma, or let his faithful companion wreak havoc alongside him on the battlefield. As such, he has two sets of abilities, offering greater complexity as well as flexibility depending on the situation. Riding Kuma, players can slice through Nightmares with his claws. On foot, they can swing Kintaro's axe and unleash devastating combo attacks with his carnivorous sidekick.

In addition to the DLC, Passtech Games is rolling out a major update eagerly awaited by many players: a rework of Talents, the heroes' special abilities. The studio has been very attentive to the community, observing gameplay patterns and taking player feedback into account to rework these Talents. Some have been rebalanced, others merged, and still others have simply been added or removed. As a result, all heroes now have new ways to play through their active and passive abilities, with the goal of revitalizing the gameplay experience.
