The Color of Madness

"With five feeble senses we pretend to comprehend the boundlessly complex cosmos…"

- HP Lovecraft

The Color of Madness is upcoming DLC for Darkest Dungeon and the third over all. It is scheduled to be released in 2018

Some hateful shard of alien origin has streaked through the night sky, crashing into the old Miller’s farm on the outskirts of the Hamlet! Those unfortunate enough to witness the Comet’s arrival have been blinded by what they can only describe as a shifting, ephemeral hue of damnably abrasive intensity. There has been no word from the farm in a fortnight, save for the unearthly groaning that echoes from the ruin of the mill…

The current list of features announced include:
 * Wave-Based Survival in a New Environment: The Farmstead. A new survival mode will be added which includes endless waves of creatures "in an effort to reach the comet's crash site." Some waves will include other creatures from the base game(excluding the Darkest Dungeon). You will also be able to track your highest kill count and compare them with friends.
 * Three new repeatable quests: a novice introduction, a veteran boss-kill, and an endless darkest-level wave-based combat experience.
 * Resupply. In between waves, heroes will have a chance to use new and exotic curios to restore their vigor.
 * An All-New Enemy Faction. The influence of the corrupting comet has turned the miller and his farmhands into slavering monstrosities. Now they are merely lifeless shells intent only on spreading the comet's influence...
 * 2 New Bosses. The Miller has become an overlord of the crystalline corpses that infest the countryside and must be put down. But be wary, as terrifying new creature, a Thing From the Stars, stalks the farm lands...
 * Twisted New Trinkets. The Nomad Wagon will have a new section available known as the Jeweler. Your gold is no good here; only Comet Shards may purchase the twisted new treasure that await.
 * New Tunes. The Color of Madness will have new music, which according to RedHook is "the longest, most involved combat score to date!"

RedHook has stated that more features will be present, but have not revealed them yet.

Trivia

 * The Color of Madness is likely based on "The Color out of Space", a novel about a meteorite which crashes on a farm and causes strange things to happen.
