Halls of Torment adds shorter runs beside The Lost Archives

Halls of Torment has received a free update alongside The Lost Archives DLC on Xbox. Chasing Carrots' November 4 feature separates new options for existing players from the paid library-themed expansion.

Set a different run length

The free update lets players choose a kill target at the Shrine of Torment, providing a route to shorter runs. A rotating Weekly Challenge visits the five base halls, while the Scriptor records personal results and accumulated statistics.

What the expansion adds

The official Lost Archives listing describes a new stage, the Library of Forbidden Texts, with two characters built around sharply different risks. The Inquisitor uses a hammer and marks enemies for Judgement, then finishes weakened targets through Execution. The Blood Apostle trades life for offensive strength.

Its content list includes 66 quests, three abilities, revised variants of existing abilities, six artefacts and more than 20 equipment items.

Separate free and paid features when planning a return. Adjustable run goals can change how an existing player fits the game into a short session. The expansion is for players who want another stage and more character combinations to investigate.

The store explicitly requires the base game, sold separately. Buying the DLC alone therefore does not provide a standalone route into Halls of Torment.
