Definitive Edition this summer<\/h2>

I’ll admit: I found Blackguards<\/a><\/em> to be more frustrating than fun. Maybe I’ve grown soft in my old age.

Blackguards – Definitive Edition<\/em> comes with the base campaign as well as the Untold Legends<\/em> downloadable content, which usually goes for about six bucks on Steam.
