Tyranny expansion Bastard's Wounds announced

New content to Bolton.

Bastard's Wounds opens a new part of the world centered around a settlement of refugees. How will you handle them? Sounds close to the bone!

The expansion will teach us more about Verse, Barik and Lantry through new companion quests, and show us more of the race of the Beastmen.

Today Tyranny also welcomes new paid downloadable content in Tales from the Tiers, for £5.49. This adds more story via 40 new vignettes; adds lots more random encounters while travelling; and brings a dozen new items to seek.
