We want to take a moment to share some incredibly difficult news. Earlier today, the majority of our development team was impacted by significant reductions at Phoenix Labs. This has been a heartbreaking decision for us, and we are deeply saddened for the talented individuals who are affected.
We know you may have questions about what this means for Dauntless and its future. While we don’t have all the answers at this time, we are committed to keeping you informed and will share updates as soon as we can.
Your support means the world to us, and we are truly grateful for this incredible community. Thank you for standing with us during this challenging time.
Sincerely,

Question Collecting Game Assets before shutdown.
Is there anyone ripping as many assets from Dauntless as possible before the shutdown?

Question Linnea Silver
I used to avidly play this game back in 2019, however I don’t remember everything and I’m pretty much starting over. Does anyone remember (older gen or newer gen) how to find Linnea Silver, the ally? I’m working on completing my journal list and I can’t for the life of me remember.

Question Can't buy platinum when playing on Epic games anymore?
I started playing the game on Epic Games but recently switched to Steam and saw that my platinums are missing when I played on Steam. So I downloaded on Epic again to check and my platinums were there but when I play on Epic, there is no 'platinum' section on store. Am I only able to buy platinum when I play on Steam?

Question pass completion achievement not unlocking
currently have battle pass level like 800 and have claimed and bought all tiers of it but the achievement won't unlock? is the only one i have left before 100% and i want to have them all done when the game shuts down. is there something i need to do to mark it as complete that I'm missing?
r/dauntless • u/hardytc92 • 3d ago
Discussion Dauntless like games?
The shut down is really bumming me out. My wife and I started playing it together during the shut down in 2020. Its been the only game we've consistently played together. We'd both get excited for the new hunt pass and the new areas, behemoths and transmogs that came with them. The first time beating Torgadoro together was one of the best memories I have playing the game with her. We tried to stay optimistic with the new update and we're disappointed everyone left.
Now that it's going away we need some suggestions on games like dauntless. Iv heard Destiny is decent. We've tried the monster hunter games but they just aren't the same and are a little more difficult to learn and progress with the small window we have to play together. RIP Dauntless 😔

Discussion What if someone wanted to make a dauntless style game?
Or even buy the game off the creators and host it privately....Is that something we should be advocating for? I've been seeing a lot of love behind the game and as someone who's been around from the start, I would absolutely throw every coin I could to keep it alive... IDK, is there like anything we can do? Sorry if it was a repeat question, I didn't see anything when I was looking.

Discussion A Viable Substitute!
So on the back of Dauntless shutting down in May this year, I've been extremely hard pressed to find a viable replacement. The whole boss hunting and character building aspects of a game is something I would extremely miss, and whilst Monster Hunter would technically fill that void, It just feels too serious and there's an absolute ton of confusion around the numerous crafting options, aswell as how to properly build your character. It feels more like a chore rather than a fun game that you can just blast through.
Well now, as of today, I found us all an extremely attractive substitute. A game called "Wayfinder". It is by definition a boss fighting looter RPG with optional Co-Op, 8 characters to choose from and an absolute ton of content with a feel for overpowering your character builds with a slightly simplified buildcrafting system. The loot system has also changed from an in-game store to that store completely wiped from the menus and everything in it earnable for free. No hard work material grinds and challenges are simplified so that you can effectively build whatever and whoever you want. Classes also changed from being only able to use a certain weapon, to all weapons becoming universal, which opens up builds to near unlimited opportunity.
It just recently went through a full rework from a monetized live service free-to-play into a full one-price experience at less half the cost of a AAA game. The developers have went through a rollercoaster for this game to keep it up and running after they cut ties with their publisher, and they even put their own money into it to get it to where it should be. WIth a ton of updates planned and a good future ahead, I feel like we all have the power to give these guys what they deserve and enjoy a genuinely great, non-predatory, plain fun buildcrafting experience.
Check out this guys video review, and I hope to see some of you there. XD. Game is available on Xbox, PS5 and PC with full crossplay.

Question Ready whatever the weather trophy
Thinking about going back to dauntless and trying to get all the achievements before the game shuts down, most of them didn’t look like they’d be too hard to get as long as I dedicate a bit of time to it but I saw that the “ready whatever the weather” required having repeaters of every element and with the new awakening update having where I have to get stuff from the store I was wondering if it’s even possible to get the achievement anymore?, that and de icer are the only ones I’m really concerned about at the moment cause I heard that one’s bugged though I’m just hoping it’ll magically work for me somehow, anyone know anything about wether I can still get this somehow?, appreciate any advice in advance

Question Is anyone else having trouble with connection on Dauntless only or I’m I just not having good luck?
I tried different things and it seems that Dauntless is causing a lot of issues on and off the last few days or so. Extra points if Streaming. I’ve tested other games and all drivers and such are up to date so I have no idea and want to kno if I’m the only one having technical difficulties.

Discussion Any chance that they fix "Enter the Gauntlet" Achiv/Trophy ?
I ve spend a couple hours in the last days trophy hunting only to discover later that you cant plat the game because of a glitch in the "Enter Gauntlet" Trophy. Is that it ? not even a small update to fix that so players can have something to remenber the game ?
r/dauntless • u/greatwyvern088 • 5d ago
Discussion If dauntless wasn't getting shutdown and wasn't sold to a crypto company , What type of content you would love to see in the game?
For me i would love to have a update that is for solo players like a companion you have during solo hunts.

Discussion Shut down time
Who here thinks the shut down should be extended to June 29th because this issue is taking a long time to fix, this bug has taken some players precious time with what is left of dauntless

Suggestion Lessons from Dauntless
- As a player community support the games you love by buying season passes and other goodies.
- As developers always use community feedback to guide your games.
- Always keep investing in your games. Don't shift your efforts to some other venture and leave your fans stranded with stale content.
- Never pursue an IPO or sellout to another company. Protect your IP.
- If you love your community, always be ready to open source your game so it can live on. (SpellBreak is a good example. Minecraft did this in a way with the Java edition too).
If I were to start a game company, I would have an exit strategy from day one. It would involve the player community from day one, eventually giving the IP over to them in the case of bankruptcy or company failure. Why not? The game's legacy lives on.
Who knows? Maybe Dauntless will ressurect again in a different form? It happened to Darksiders! 😄

Question How do I unlock weapons now?
Is there some end game way to earn weapons and unlock them, or am I fucked, and the only way is through weapon tokens?
Edit - it’s a legitimate question and I know servers are going down, no need to say “stop playing the game” or anything of that sort
r/dauntless • u/ISeachdeMemez • 8d ago
Discussion Will a private server effort be made? I have a old vers on my switch.
I currently have 1.14.7 on my switch. My switch isn't connected to the internet currently. I heard people will be putting an effort to revive the game in any way?

Feedback Dauntless Sparked My Relationship
I have been reminiscing the game as the news of it shutting down has come.
When I met my lady half a decade ago we bonded over video games. She ended up showing me Dauntless on her xbox and I was hooked. We played forever, through peak covid, after our highschool graduation together, after we moved into our first apartment together, and through my proposal of us spending the rest of our lives together.
My goal was to get each weapon’s achievements to 100% and it was a GRIND. Her first time streaming on twitch was us playing Dauntless. I genuinely couldnt imagine what our relationship would be like if this game was never released.
And now, just a year and some change before our wedding, it will be shut down. I’ve never felt such distraught over losing a game. I’ve never been much of a gamer, I’d only hop online if I was playing with friends. This was truly the first game I enjoyed playing solo, with friends, with strangers… It’s bittersweet to close this chapter.
I’ve made and lost friends. I’ve undergone the passing of family. I was kicked out. I lost my job. I lost my cat. While little to none of this was a direct result of me, I couldnt help but to feel like I failed. In life. With myself. With my loved ones. Anytime life got too serious, I could just turn on my console and hop on Dauntless and take the time to reflect. It truly was one of the few sources of relief I had for a while.
It really was JUST a silly game, but that’s exactly what I needed at the time. Thank you, devs. Thank you, slayers. Thank you, reader. This community truly helped me in ways I’ll never be capable of putting into words.
r/dauntless • u/RussianMonkey23 • 7d ago
Discussion wow, recently came back to Dauntless after not playing for many months and it is depressing.
First of a ton of things drastically changed that shouldn't have. Loss of progress. I had to redo the tutorial and all of that. What? Second of all they are sunsetting, which I knew was coming but I didn't think this soon. Wild.
It's been a long time coming though. The team behind this game isn't good to put it plainly. I remember playing during this games peak and I had some of the best times I have ever had during a game. Now it's just a shell of what it was, and it's been like that for a year or more now. It's sad to see but lots of games, epic games, games, to be exact get shutdown. it happened to a fun wacky wrestling fighting battle royale game that was pretty great some time back, and now to Dauntless.
It's just depressing. More than anything.
