The sun is setting upon the land of Valisthea. For centuries, people have flocked to her Mothercrystals to partake of their blessing—the abundant aether that fuels the magicks they rely upon in their everyday lives. As the aether begins to fade and the lifeless deadlands spread ever further, so too does the struggle for possession of the final flickers of the Mothers' light grow ever more fierce. Yet amidst the gathering storm, there are those who believe that the legacy of the crystals has shaped mankind's destiny for long enough.
A single-player action RPG set in a high-fantasy world where warring nations and powerful summoned Eikons shape political intrigue and personal vengeance. Players control Clive, a former shield bearer whose life is upended by tragedy. Engage in fast-paced, tactical real-time combat that blends heavy weapons, Eikon-driven abilities, and cinematic set pieces. Deeply narrative-driven, the game emphasizes character development, expansive locales to explore, and dramatic boss encounters while offering layered combat customization through combos, parries, and skill upgrades.
