Start Slaying in Jötunnslayer: Hordes of Hel
Grindstone and Games Farm have released a new content update for Jötunnslayer: Hordes of Hel, bringing players to the frozen expanse of Jötunheim. This update also introduces the frost goddess Skadi, which is now available on Steam and Epic Games Store with a limited-time discount. It also comes with new challenges, enemies, and mechanics.
Jötunheim is a harsh tundra filled with towering basalt columns, magical bridges, and relentless storms. Players will navigate treacherous landscapes while battling ancient giant civilizations and waves of colossal insects. The environment itself is a threat, with fierce winds and unpredictable hazards. New enemy types include venomous elementals, swarming insects, and upgraded Nithstangs, all adding to the game’s intensity. A unique Curse system focused on storms introduces fresh gameplay dynamics.
The update also introduces Skadi, the Goddess of Winter and Mountains. Her arrival brings the Seal mechanic, allowing players to lock in preferred skills during level-ups. With frost-based abilities and enhanced Banish and Reroll options, she adds new strategic layers to the experience. With this update, Jötunnslayer: Hordes of Hel expands its world, offering fresh challenges and deeper gameplay for those ready to face the icy realm of Jötunheim.
“This content update represents our commitment to both expanding Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel and implementing community feedback during Early Access,” said Matej Hudak, Publishing Director at Grindstone. “This addition significantly increases the value and paves the way for future content updates, including new maps, gods, characters, weapons, and an endless mode arriving in time for the 1.0 launch.”
