If you love your games both passive and active, the survivors-like sub-genre was tailor-made for you. One of the more popular entries outside of mainstay Vampire Survivors is Chasing Carrots’ Halls of Torment, which had a couple of exciting announcements to make this week. 

First up, after selling over a million copies, the next stops are Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. So far both platforms are just listed as “coming soon.” The devs are also gearing up for the impending launch of the game’s first-ever paid DLC, titled The Boglands. Check out the new platform trailer below, followed by a peek at the Boglands.

Here’s more of what you can expect in the DLC, the Steam page for which is live now:

  • A New Stage: Trudge through a slowing swamp teeming with insects, spirits, and ancient walking trees. Time is not your enemy here – survival is. Victory lies not in the grains in the hourglass, but in the piles of slain foes.
  • Two New Heroes: The Crone summons twisted plant life to ensnare enemies and spread Decay, while The Alchemist hurls volatile mixtures imbued with elemental power – customizable for fire, ice, lightning, or earth. 
  • 50+ New Quests: Earn rewards by experimenting with new mechanics, braving the Boglands, and mastering your tools.
  • New Abilities & Gear: Unlock three new abilities and a dozen new items, designed to synergize with the Crone’s control and the Alchemist’s raw elemental creativity.
  • Decay Mechanic & Earth Element: Unleash the new Earth element and apply Decay, a long-lasting, armor-cracking curse that softens even the toughest foes.
  • 6 New Artifacts: Customize your runs with powerful stage modifiers. Risk meets reward as these ancient objects twist the rules to your favor—or demise.
  • More Traits. More Blessings. More Ways to Die: Expand your build potential with potion-focused blessings and new traits waiting to be uncovered.

The Boglands will join the Halls of Torment sometime in Q4 2025.
