Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon patch 1.1 is available now.
Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon is one of the more surprising successes of 2025. Questline’s open-world RPG gives Arthurian legend the Elder Scrolls treatment, letting players explore a decaying, war-torn version of Avalon while guided by the ghost of King Arthur.
Tainted Grail’s unusual world and intriguing questlines more than made up for a few rough edges, as Sam Desatoff explained in his Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon review. “Every NPC has something worthwhile to contribute, and most of them offer side quests that add new wrinkles to the larger story”, he wrote back in June. “They can also be surprisingly funny: you’ll help a nobleman fake his death to get out of a loveless marriage, uncover the lair of an undead chef chasing the next great meal, assist a woman who accidentally turned her husband into a pig, and more.”
Questline has updated Tainted Grail sporadically since launch. But the latest patch—v1.1—is by far the biggest yet. Not only does it squash a vast array of bugs nibbling at the RPG’s underbelly, but it also adds several major features and a bunch of new locations for players to explore.
