Despite this support from their fans and various websites, Crate manager Arthur Bruno stated in an interview with The Escapist that pre-orders made for only a very small percentage of Grim Dawn's total budget. Fifteen days later in another posting on the game's official website, Crate stated that they had received financial support from gaming website Gamebanshee and one of the authors of the gaming related webcomic Penny Arcade. In a posting on the game's official website, the developers announced that after a period of increased email activity from fans wishing to donate to Crate to support the project that they had added a pre-order page to the game's official website to allow fans to contribute to the project in an official manner. Grim Dawn's development is notable for Crate Entertainment's open appeal to their fans for financial support. Initially, few details were revealed, with Crate Entertainment simply stating that Grim Dawn is set in a thematically dark fictional world loosely based on the Victorian era. Development Ĭrate Entertainment announced on Jthat they had licensed the Titan Quest engine from Iron Lore and announced Grim Dawn 's development on January 21, 2010.

According to Crate Entertainment, the game's crafting system is similar to that used in Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos's popular mod Defense of the Ancients. Like other prominent action role-playing games, the majority of the gameplay in Grim Dawn centers around fast-paced combat and the collection of loot-armor, potions, weapons, and money.

Please help update this article to reflect recent events or newly available information. These unnatural powers are feared by some but give many new hope of launching a resistance to fight the 'outsiders' and reclaim what's left of their world. A few survivors have begun to exhibit strange new abilities after surviving possession or exposure to the warp. These humans have quietly watched the warring invaders destroy one another and have become wise to the strengths and vulnerabilities of their otherworldly foes. Small enclaves of human survivors exist scattered throughout the world, holed up in hidden refuges. Grim Dawn is about survival and adaptation to the grim new reality. The world of Cairn can never be fully restored to the way it once was. This cataclysmic war not only decimated human civilization but warped the very fabric of reality and, in its wake, gave life to new horrors. While the Aetherials were seeking to use human bodies as a resource, the Chthonians appeared to destroy the human race before that could happen. The researchers brought over more aetherials, they got loose, the aetherials were able to then open more portals into their own world, bringing over large numbers of their brethren. Naturally, this research got out of control as such things always do. The researchers discovered that a human, once possessed, retained heightened abilities after the aetherial being was purged from them. Through experimentation, they learned that these beings, made of aether, a sort of spiritual energy, could fuse themselves with the human mind, possessing and controlling their host if they were able to subvert the human's will. Naturally, being paranoid of the unknown as humans often are, they also devised a way to imprison it once it came through. They learned things from the whisperings of these otherworldly entities and eventually attempted to open a portal to bring one across. Humans at some point had come into communication with extra-dimensional beings.

Cairn has become ground zero of an eternal war between two otherworldly powers, the Aetherials, who view human bodies as a resource to use, and the Chthonians, who are intent on destroying humanity before that can happen. The game takes place in Cairn, a dark, war-torn world where a once proud empire has been brought to ruin and the human race driven to the edge of extinction. 4.1 Downloadable content and expansions.
