Asterfel

Besieged by conflict, the King's magical mines have stirred up mutant terrors, and roused an ancient God from its slumber. Nature and magic have become erratic, and dead things crawl out of their graves to wreak havoc. Meet the Crown Wardens: the sword arm of the King, The Kindred: a group of rebels that aims to free workers from the King's exploitative mines, and the Scholars: mages who seek to learn more about magic and its impact on the land. Choose which to work with, or lend your sword to all, as you decide on your path. An Intense, in-depth combat system allows you to wield swords, bows, or magical runes to cast spells. Whether up close or afar, tackle fights your way.  Mix up your play-style and upgrade your abilities to overcome the odds.

You are a shipwreck survivor, new to Asterfel. Shape what happens to the island, play through story rich quests, and learn more about the world through each of the three factions. Can the island's troubles be overcome, or is collapse unavoidable? Explore a lush open world with a Gothic – like atmosphere. Discover arid landscapes, dense jungles, and ancient ruins, where terrors lurk behind every corner. The further abroad you travel, the more difficult enemies become. Face greater challenges, train yourself, and venture forth. The only obstacle is your skill, and your enemy's teeth.
