* MinionMaster: Of the six available classes Mindthief can be used like that - she possesses several rat-themed summons in her ability deck, and a number of actions that interact with them somehow, although the unlockable class[[spoiler:es Summoner and Beast Tyrant]] is an even better example of the trope.

* BonusBoss: Scenarios [[spoiler:79 and 81]] are [[spoiler:side scenarios]] which contain optional bosses. In fact it's possible that a party won't even unlock the ability to fight them at any point in their campaign. There are also a number of bosses which are along the critical path but not required to complete the main story.

An expansion titled "Forgotten Circles" was released in 2019, adding a new class (the Diviner), new enemies, and around 20 scenarios. The expansion requires base Gloomhaven, and is intended to be played after it as a conclusion to it's story.

A standalone expansion titled "Jaws of the Lion" was released in July 2020. It features four new classes and 25 scenarios, plus a handful of new items and enemies. It was intended to be an easier introduction for players new to Gloomhaven, including a considerably more robust set of tutorial scenarios, which it recommends veterans skip, and a much more streamlined campaign progression. The game is a standalone experience, but the new characters and items can integrate with the original games content if desired (or vise versa), and the plot of the story serves as a loose prequel, however, prior knowledge of Gloomhaven's plot is not required.

A sequel, entitled ''Frosthaven'', was announced in December of 2019 and a Kickstarter Campaign was launched in March 2020. The campaign successfully concluded raising over $12 million (over its initial goal of $500,000). It was released in late 2022 (although fulfillment of kickstarter orders carried on into 2023).
