The first update for MMO Wayfinder is officially titled Call of the Void. Digital Extremes revealed the update during their Wayfinder Wednesday blog post. The highlight of Call of the Void is a new Wayfinder character named Grendel. Also included in the update is the first-ever live event for Wayfinder, new content, and some quality-of-life updates. Call of the Void ushers in the second season of Wayfinder.
A new Wayfinder named Grendel will be joining the roster of characters with the Call of the Void. The ferocious beast will be available immediately for players who have an Awakened or Exalted Founder’s pack. Other players will have the ability to farm the components required to craft Grendel, who will then be permanently unlocked.
Other than the teaser trailer, Digital Extremes hasn’t released much about Grendel just yet. According to his description, Grendel is an enraged berserker who explodes into battle in a whirlwind of speed and fury. His full reveal details will be coming soon.
The first-ever live event, Call of the Void, will have stranger rifts appearing all across the Highlands. Players will be able to seek out and explore the rifts which are full of mysteries and surprises. Two new quests will lead players into the flames as they confront the Highlands Fire Lord. Another quest titled The Final Score will unlock the Drill Machine, a new secret weapon constructed deep in the Mines.
A new Lost Zone, Gloom Dungeon, and a new weapon called Juggernaut are also coming in the update. Wayfinders who complete the event will gain access to an exclusive Gloom Dagger skin called Dawning Hope.
Finally, a slew of quality-of-life and balance updates will be coming to Wayfinder in phases. You can find the full patch notes
