In Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion, players are thrust into a thrilling new chapter set within the expansive world of Gloomhaven. Unlike the original game, Jaws of the Lion serves as a more accessible entry point while retaining the rich, strategic gameplay the series is known for. The story is set in the bustling city of Gloomhaven, where a mysterious criminal organization has begun to tighten its grip on the city, and strange, dangerous creatures roam its streets. Players take on the role of one of four unique mercenaries, each with their own distinct abilities and backstory. These mercenaries—The Red Guard, the Hatchet, the Scoundrel, and the Voidwarden—band together to investigate and dismantle the criminal syndicate, uncovering dark secrets hidden beneath the city’s cobbled streets. As they navigate through dynamic, branching scenarios, players will face off against vicious monsters, explore ancient ruins, and make choices that will shape the future of Gloomhaven. With a strong emphasis on tactical combat and deep character progression, Jaws of the Lion offers an epic adventure where every decision and every encounter can change the course of the story.
