Today on June 30th, the new expansion “Rise of Tiamat” for the action MMO Neverwinter starts.
From 4 PM, the servers will be down for two hours. When it resumes on Xbox One, “Rise of Tiamat” is supposed to be active: one of the 5 modules that Xbox One players are supposed to receive this year until they catch up to the PC version of the action MMORPG Neverwinter.
New gameplay content awaits to be conquered. The dragon goddess and her minions lurk in the new area Dragon’s Maw or in the dungeon “Temple of Tiamat.”
But this patch also brings other changes that PC players received last year. In the patch notes , the other changes to the game are detailed: Performance adjustments have been made, frame rates increased, many bugs fixed, and minor improvements made. A mini-map has also been added.
And these 4 (+1) modules are still coming this year
4 more “older” modules are still set to release on Xbox One this year: Elemental Evil, Icewind Dale, Dreadring and Fury of the Feywild. These are modules 1, 2, 3, and 6. Currently, alongside the base game, there is Tyranny of Dragons, the PC module 4. And starting today, there is also Rise of Tiamat, module number 5. The two modules are linked in the story. And it seems Cryptic thought it best to start with the “Dragons” from “Dungeons and Dragons.”
For the PC version of Neverwinter, 2 new modules are also announced for 2015: Strongholds and Underdark. Complicated matter with the version confusion.
This should end soon. The aim is to quickly bring the Xbox One version up to the PC version’s standard. Xbox players should also receive Strongholds this year.
