Hallowgrove Confirmed as Bleached-Forest Zone Added in Open Beta
Hallowgrove is confirmed as a beta-added forest zone with thick cover and a central Mist Lord arena.
Hallowgrove is a confirmed zone name, added as new content in the June 2026 open beta, described as a bleached, half-dead forest offering thick cover for close-range fights.
What is confirmed
Hallowgrove is a confirmed zone name, added as new content in the June 2026 open beta, described as a bleached, half-dead forest offering thick cover for close-range fights.
- Official beta materials list Hallowgrove alongside the Withered Knight class as new June 2026 additions.
- The terrain favors close-range combat and ambushes over long sightlines.
- A Mist Lord arena sits at the heart of the zone.
Why this matters
Knowing the terrain type helps players choose classes and routes suited to close-range engagements rather than assuming every zone favors ranged play.
What to watch next
Confirm exact extraction points and loot density once live map data is available after launch.
