Perfect World and Cryptic Studios have announced that they will be revealing the next lineup of content for Neverwinter during a special Twitch stream on June 1st.
Neverwinter has grown to around two million players on Xbox One alone at last count, not including those who play on PC. Since it launched last March on Xbox, the game has seen nine expansions with The Maze Engine being the most recently released on May 3rd. Players have fought along side Drizz't Do'Urden in the Forgotten Realms as well as the five headed dragon herself, Tiamat. The live stream will take place at Meltdown Comics in L.A. on June 1st at 7PM Eastern time on the official Twitch channel for D&D.
There are many options that Cryptic can take to Neverwinter. The first thing that comes to mind is a level cap increase. The last increase saw a rise from 60 to 70, but a rise to 80 may be met with some resentment. The amount of XP it took to get to 70 was drastically high and a cap of 80 would require nearly a month of grinding out XP. Other things can be introducing story lines from other aspects of D&D. The addition of Drizz't Do'urden opened up the door for story lines like Dragon Lance and other Wizards of the Coast products. Personally, I'm hoping for Dragon Lance as I'd love to see the implementation of Raistlin Majere and the Dragon Orb into Neverwinter's story arc.
With no other information to go on, what do you want to see for the future of Neverwinter?
