FACE CHALLENGING NEW ENEMIES

GUTO (Elite Enemy #1)

Run, run as fast as you can because in a flash the Guto will be upon you. These agile elites dash at alarming speed and in unpredictable directions, making every twist and turn through the dank underground a possible threat.

DEMON HAG (Elite Enemy #2)

Now she’s here...now she’s not...beware the teleporting Demon Hag and her searing laser beams that shoot out from her gruesome, green eyes. Rising from the dirt and murk, this elite is a deadly combination of the Witch and the Mariner.

NEW OBJECTIVES

Unlock areas of the map with the help of a mind-controlled Quiet One. Escort the lumbering enemy turned ally safely and be sure to keep feeding it points if you want it to walk faster.
