The Hand of Merlin

New Heroes: Tariq al-Ash'ab (Warrior), Alain the White (Ranger), Isabel de Orreaga (Mystic). Each has a unique new passive ability, too! You can recruit these new Heroes on your travels (by visiting Heroic nodes with a non-full party), and you can also unlock them permanently by performing various feats of strength.

Overhauled Hero Skill Trees: New skills are added for each class, most old ones made stronger.

New Passive Abilities: Each Hero received unique passive effects for added strategic depth and character variety.

New Enemies: Enchanter and Witch (Mystic Bandits), and Basilisk (Ranged Abomination)

Gamepad Support: Fully functional support for players more comfortable with a controller

New Difficulty Modes: Story Mode provides a more casual, narrative focused experience, while Hard Mode+ & Hard Mode++ each provide a significantly increased challenge.

New Guardians: Oberon, Atlantes, Siglorel

New Nourishment System: Players will now get stacking (de)buffs based on how long they travel well-stocked, or poorly stocked. These (de)buffs will affect Heroes’ combat stats (health and armor) in a powerful way.

VFX Overhaul: Core to the VFX upgrades was the ability for the game to show the sci-fi orientation of the game more clearly. Cosmetically, the visual overhaul now better represents the distinctions of character skills such as the Mystic, who creates effects through knowledge rather than magic like a traditional wizard or mage would.

Modding (PC Only): Added modding tools and integrated support for Steam Workshop.

Endless Mode: As the name suggests, this mode offers a steadily ramping challenge in which you can fight waves of abominations, in theory, forever.
