Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon Gets Free Fists of Fury DLC and Patch 1.30
The update makes unarmed combat a fully supported build for the first time, alongside performance improvements and new Steam Deck graphics modes.
Patch 1.30 for Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon arrived alongside a free DLC called Fists of Fury, released simultaneously on 1 October 2026.
What changed
- Unarmed combat is now a fully supported build, with its own weapon category, dedicated gear, a skill tree, and a new teacher NPC
- Performance and stability improvements across all platforms — described by the developer as another round of optimization
- Two Steam Deck-specific graphics presets have been introduced: Quality and Performance
- Additional general fixes and improvements are included in patch 1.30
The DLC carries no price tag and is available now. The developer notes the unarmed build has been among the most-requested features since launch, which explains why it arrives as a headlining addition rather than a quiet patch note.
For players who have been steering around weapon-dependent builds, the addition of a dedicated skill tree and gear category suggests unarmed is treated as a first-class path rather than a novelty — though the full scope of that content remains to be seen.
