| Gauntlet Development Coming To An End | 2015-10-09 | Gauntlet Players, It has been a busy year since our vision and remake of the arcade classic Gauntlet was released. In that time we have not only released one version, but recently released our newer, shinier updated version as well – Gauntlet: Slayer Edition – on both PC and PlayStation 4 console. While it has been great working with Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, the development phase and our time together is now drawing to a close and Arrowhead’s involvement with the support of the game will come to an end. This means we likely will not release any more patches for the game. If anything were to ever change in the future we will of |

| Gauntlet: Slayer Edition Coming August! | 2015-07-23 | Nearly 30 years ago Morak first took his place in the Gauntlet to shape it to his will and torment any adventurer daring to brave its depths.

We are happy to announce that Gauntlet: Slayer Edition will be a free upgrade for all current and future owners of Gauntlet on PC when it is released on August 11th. As we had hinted at earlier, this has been in the works now for a while and it’s b |

As we've watched countless heroes slain and slaughtered by Season 1 of the Gauntlet Colosseum, we wondered if we should ask Morak to perhaps tone down the mayhem in order to let the less hardcore of combatants have a chance. Well we did and he promptly spit in our face and kicked us into a deep pit filled with undead orcs. He then announced that Season 2 of the Gauntlet Colosseum was going to start as soon as next week with even more devious challenges. Once we managed to escape by climbing on top of the dead bodies of all the others he kicked down there, we raced back home to inform everyone that Season 1 is ending next Tu |
