You feel like a powerful, agile reaper tearing through gothic fantasy landscapes while customizing your build and solving environmental puzzles.

What players say

Players love the fluid combat and RPG-lite loot system, but the PC port crashes frequently, especially in the inventory and City of the Dead. Some find a workaround by opting into the public beta branch and forcing DX11. Later dungeons feel repetitive and enemies get too tanky.
