In the freezing lands north of Icewind Dale lies the Reghed Edge, where the Reghed Glacier nearly touches the Sea of Moving Ice. There, in a seasonal fishing village, strange events are unfolding. The warm season has stretched unseasonably long, thawing ancient glaciers. Frost giants and other monsters have been seen far closer to the settlement than ever before.

  • New Dungeon: Jotunskar

Taking shelter is possible, but entering the storm and withstanding its debilitating effects is often the wiser choice to eventually reap the great rewards available by opening chests and defeating the Stormbound Reaver.
  • New Ice Breaker Battle Pass
    • Play the game to unlock free rewards from our Battle Pass. You can get the Premium Reward Track to obtain even more!
      • The Premium Reward Track includes the new Companion Wormungandr: A fragment of an ancient doom given a small, coiled form.
