ABYSS OF DUNGEONS HITS A HIGH NOTE WITH NEW BARD CLASS IN AUGUST UPDATE

New season introduces musical support class, Dispatch Team missions, and summer-themed rewards


KRAFTON, Inc. today released the August update for Abyss of Dungeons, the mobile dungeon-crawling extraction RPG developed by Bluehole Studio. Headlining the update is the arrival of a brand-new class, the Bard, along with the launch of a new season, “A Chilling Harmony.”

Now available in North America and other select regions, the Bard class brings a musical twist to dungeon crawling. As a support-focused class, the Bard bolsters allies with buffs activated through various instruments, including flutes, drums, and lyres — each offering its own set of active abilities. Players can unlock the Bard once their account reaches level 6.

New Update Highlights:

  • New Class – Bard: Perform your way to victory with a musically gifted support class. Choose your instrument and amplify your team’s power with a range of unique buffs and skills.
  • Dispatch Team Missions: Form a squad of hired mercenaries and send them on dungeon expeditions. Mission outcomes, including loot quality and duration, depend on the team’s composition and the regions explored. Bonus rewards are also possible based on chance.
  • New Weapons & Gear: Expand your arsenal with powerful new gear like the Blunderbuss and Great Shield, as well as unique weapons including Pale Breath (Flute), Frostpiercer (Spear), and Grip of Winter (Spellbook).

Limited-Time Summer Event (Aug. 9–Sept. 2)
Celebrate the season with a special event featuring:

  • Craftable swimsuit costumes
  • EXP boosts to help level up quickly
  • An event codex filled with character-strengthening challenges and rewards

Abyss of Dungeons originally launched in the U.S. and Canada in February 2025, expanding globally to markets including Indonesia, Thailand, Brazil, and Mexico in June.

Set in a dark medieval fantasy world, Abyss of Dungeons blends the thrill of battle royale survival with the depth of dungeon exploration and RPG progression. Players must battle their way through dangerous dungeons, claim powerful loot, and escape with their lives — or lose everything.
