With the drop ofOnce Human’sWay of Winterscenario, players will have a set of seven new deviants to get their hands on. Among the new arrivals are three Combat Deviants and three Territory Deviants, with just one new Crafting Deviant to catch as you take on quests and explore the wilderness. Each is worth capturing, offering unique abilities and effects to use to your advantage at the height of the PvE scenario.
Way of Winterintroduces much more than new deviants, with never-before-seen areas to visit and an all-new temperature mechanic to brave, taking the survival title to a new extreme. Staying alive remains at the top of your to-do list, but keeping warm will now come in at a close second as the two tasks go hand-in-hand. The deviants you catch can offer some help in the matter, bringing useful skills to combat, crafting, and your territory.
