Talent System

Hello, Hikers!

We’ve overhauled the talent system from top to bottom – it’s now more in-depth and has a greater impact on your playstyle.

There are more talents than ever, and their bonuses are more significant. Do you want to sneak silently through the trees, last longer in combat, or organise your inventory? Now every skill gives you a real advantage in the forest.

What’s more, talent books are now easier to spot in the world, and the progression of talent points and their placement have been revised.

The forest is getting deadlier. Become stronger.
