Necropolis: Brutal Edition is a 2016 action RPG developed by Harebrained Schemes for PC, combining hack-and-slash combat with dungeon-crawling adventure across procedurally structured environments. This expanded edition of the base game introduces a new playable character class, the Brute, alongside a substantial outdoor area called the Black Forest that adds fresh terrain to explore beyond the original setting. The update also expands the game's content through additional enemy types, weapons, armor, traps, potions, and scrolls, broadly deepening the pool of threats and tools available to players. The core experience centers on melee-focused combat as adventurers descend through a dangerous, ever-changing structure known as the Necropolis. Brutal Edition represents a comprehensive overhaul rather than a minor patch, incorporating numerous systemic improvements alongside its new characters and environments.
