Chained Echoes: Ashes of Elrant is a premium DLC that gives fans more of what they loved from the base game. Set right before the ending of Chained Echoes, the Crimson Wings reunite for another mission, letting you spend more time with beloved characters.

Deep focus on story and lore

Chained Echoes: Ashes of Elrant doesn’t reinvent the formula but builds on it with extra story content and more lore. This DLC helps flesh out background details and character moments the base game didn’t focus on as much, making it feel like a natural extension of the main adventure.

What’s new here is a playable character, fresh areas to visit, and over 40 new enemies and bosses to battle. It features mini-games along with more than 15 new music tracks. The only downside is that gear upgrades feel underwhelming, offering little incentive to dive deep into them.

A worthwhile addition

Overall, Chained Echoes: Ashes of Elrant is a solid expansion that adds more story, exploration, and activities for those who already loved Chained Echoes. It’s not groundbreaking, but it is a valuable addition for those who want to learn more about the things that happened behind the scenes.
