IGN was told that the now canceled Hero Pass content, which was set to add two new characters to the vampire co-op shooter, was scheduled for release this Halloween. If it had come out, the Hero Pass would have marked a year-and-a-half of post-launch support for a game that had suffered a disastrous launch and an ever-shrinking playerbase.

However, the offline mode failed to materialize. IGN understands Redfall's May update would have added the ability to play offline, which in turn would have helped with keeping the game alive in the future. Unfortunately for players, it will never see the light of day.
A final update is on its way to Redfall after all.
Following the news Microsoft was closing a number of Bethesda studios including Redfall developer Arkane Austin, it was reported the team was working on DLC and updates - including an offline mode - until very recently.
A new post on X, however, states the update is still on the way. "Thank you all for your supportive messages," it reads. "We are working to release our final update, Game Update 4, that brings revamped Neighbourhood and Nest systems, Single Player Pausing, Offline Mode, and more. We'll provide additional details soon. Thank you all."
What's not specifically mentioned here, though, is the Hero Pass DLC, which will add two new player characters to the vampire shooter but remains missing a year after the game's release.
This was cancelled after the studio closure, with players directed to a Bethesda support page with details forthcoming of a credit programme to reimburse anyone who already purchased the DLC.
At present, that support page still stands. It suggests that while the offline mode and other requested features are still on the way, the Hero Pass is not.
Eurogamer has contacted Bethesda to confirm.
Even before this final update, Redfall remains worth checking out through one last stroll of its world.
Goddamn the banner in the article reminded me the characters (all of them) were hit heavily in the face with the DEI stick, blegh

The characters being non-white is not a problem. The problem is the ugly art style
Wut?
I meant they're all ugly as sin. Arkane has made good looking characters in that same-ish art style with all Dishonored games Prey and and even Deathloop.

When did I say anything about Dishonored and Prey? The art style there is different with less details. Deathloop was more realistic but had better looking character models. There is some weird hybrid style going on in Redfall resulting in the monstrosities you see.
Sorry I didn't mean for us to go and get it? I meant for the crackers to go and get it!! LOL I am sure people will try it if it is free? I know I will! I need a good disappointment! LOL
