If you’re wondering what you missed this past weekend, I’ve rounded up every significant announcement made during Evo 2024 and sorted them by developer.

No party is truly complete without a healthy dose of bickering, but when it comes to the art of trading barbs, the most vicious characters aren't always the most obvious candidates. As a game that's full of moral grays, doesn't only elect do-gooders as potential party members, tossing some downright malicious characters into the mix. Although no one who can be recruited in the game is completely irredeemable, characters like Astarion and Lae'zel are capable of plenty of cutting words.
