Official update history
Hello everyone! We have just pushed the changes that have been sitting on our coming_in_hot branch live.
Those changes include:
Another fix for the Colour of Madness loot window bug
Localization files should now use colors from the colors folder - This is only mod related and needs to be checked by modders if it works as they need to.
We have reverted our previous work surrounding the Trinkets expansion as it was not functioning as intended.
Greetings Hamlet Dwellers!

Greetings Hamlet Dwellers!
We have a new update for you to test. This update contains the following:
A fix for the Colour of Madness loot window bug
Fixes for some Steamdeck issues that had been reported
We have also have increased the trinket limit from 999 to 9 999!
We are pushing a new build to 'coming_in_hot' on Steam for Darkest Dungeon. This build has only a few changes since the original 64-bit build was deployed.
Based on reports from you all we have reverted FMOD to the previous version due to the incompatibility it created with many mods, and the unlikely nature that those mods would be updated. While this does re-introduce some rare crashes that can occur, we felt this was the safer course of action given what we are trying to accomplish.
We wanted to add a special shout out to Cood Alume (aka Void Slime) from our Discord. He helped us test mods (mostly his own) against the update and was very helpful in investigating the issue.
Changelog for the build:
- FMOD reverted to previous version (due an incompatibility with some mods)
- In Butcher Circus, it's Not Possible to Win Match After Surrendering it Right After Beginning Anymore
- Missing Dismiss Hero Button When Switching From Stage Coach Hero Sheet to Roaster Hero Sheet
We are pushing a new build to ‘coming_in_hot’ on Steam for Darkest Dungeon. This build is the culmination of the past few months as we wanted to do some slight updates to the game to solve some longstanding issues as well as release a 64-bit version of the client.
Coming back and working on Darkest Dungeon has been a delight. That said we are very conscious of the robust mod community that has been thriving since principal development has ceased. As such we’ve done our best to ensure that the work we’ve done has not had any adverse impact on the existing mods.
A big feature of this work has been in preparing and testing a 64 bit version of the game. This has the added benefit of the game running slightly better for everyone! And if you are using mods you can now go even crazier with the amount of mods you load and play with.
We’ve been working with the team on Black Reliquary to test and validate this new build, but we are now ready to push it to a larger pool of players to help ensure stability.
In addition to that we’ve fixed the following issues:
🔸 Random crashes caused by incorrect null pointers (basically, less random crashes)
🔸 Abbey Help Window is Missing Texts
🔸 Windowed Resolution Scale Differs on 32bit Build From the None Beta
🔸 Player Able to Duplicate Trinkets While Dragging Them From Slot to Inventory
🔸 Duplicating Items When Looting Treasure During any Quest
❗ We STRONGLY recommend that before you switch to the branch and receive the update, you back up your save files! ❗
After you switch branches on STEAM you will be given the option when launching the game if you want to use the new 64 bit client or the new 32 bit client.
We kindly ask you to switch over and assist in testing and let us know if you hit any issues.
It’s been a while! We wanted to let everyone know that we have just pushed a new build for Darkest Dungeon to the coming_in_hot branch. The purpose of this build is to get us a step closer to releasing a unified binary to all our storefronts. Some of you may know that our GOG and Epic builds are not the same as what is available on Steam and this build is part of our effort to rectify that situation. This build does NOT contain any other fixes.
We’ll keep this build up on the coming_in_hot branch for at least a few weeks to ensure stability. We have been testing many of the popular mods to ensure compatibility, but we want to give a period of time to soak test this new build and catch any issue we may have introduced. We would appreciate it if you could help test it out during that time to make sure everything works as intended.
Known Issue: If you are using Ubuntu and got your Steam client installed through "App Install" (also called SNAP), the game won't start.
To fix this, there are two possible solutions, but for both you will need to use terminal:
Solution 1:
uninstall Steam from snap:
- sudo snap remove steam
and then reinstall it with additional parameter:
- sudo snap install steam --classic
Solution 2:
Don't use the SNAP version of Steam (which is not made by Valve, but by Canonical) and instead download official version from https://store.steampowered.com/about/
Thank you for your help!
