A free update titled As Below So Above is out for the PC version of World of Horror, adding new Old Gods, playable characters, and an official Scenario Mode. Rock Paper Shotgun reported that As Below So Above is the largest update released for the game to date. PC players can download the new content at no extra cost.
What it means for players
The update expands the indie horror RPG with new playable characters and Old Gods, alongside a mountain environment.
There's a new location, the Mountains, alongside 60 extra events, 19 enemies, three challenges, and 30 items.
These figures from Rock Paper Shotgun outline the new threats and collectible items available to players in the Mountains zone.
The opening scenario tasks players with searching for three students lost in the woods, offering multiple endings based on the investigation's outcome, according to Rock Paper Shotgun.
Rock Paper Shotgun also confirmed that the updated modding system remains backward compatible with mods created for version 1.0. That compatibility allows existing community creations to function alongside the new content.
