Risk of Rain 2 Gets Surprise Fourth DLC Hallowed Concepts

Gearbox Software and 2K released Hallowed Concepts, the fourth DLC for Risk of Rain 2, during The Triple-i Initiative 2026 broadcast on October 9. The expansion was announced in April at the same event, with release timing described only as coming soon, and arrived without a separate launch date. It adds eerie new regions of Petrichor V, new enemies and bosses, and two playable survivors: the Acolyte, who mixes close-range sword attacks with long-range attacks, and the Enforcer, a front-line defender. A curse system called Hex brings negative effects; players who endure hexes can obtain holy items. New trials and challenges were added. In a multiplayer lobby, one owner of the DLC makes new monsters, stages, and items appear for everyone, but the new survivors and item unlocks require each player to own it. Hallowed Concepts is available on PC via Steam and Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. The Steam version is priced at 1,520 yen including tax.
