Update! Crossplay with Epic and a Searchable Server Browser

Greetings New and Old Adventurers!

We’ve had a recent influx of new players from the Epic Store, and needless to say we were a bit overwhelmed.
But fear not! We’ve made some improvements to the Lobby by adding better sorting and a much needed search function.


There are still some issues with some games not showing up initially in the Europe Server so you may need to hit refresh to get the most up-to-date list of games. We’re looking into a fix for this. As a thanks for all the new players, we’re unlocking ALL the seasonal goodies in the Lore Store for the next 2 weeks. You’ll need to actually purchase them in the Lore Store to keep them unlocked, so get out there and start banking Lore!

Limited Time Unlocks and Art Books

Greetings Adventurers Old and New Alike!

We’ve had a recent influx of new fodder adventurers so to show our appreciation we’ll be temporarily unlocking ALL SEASONAL UNLOCKS for 2 weeks. So if you’re the completionist type, or just really want to play as a Merling with Angel Wings and a Santa Hat, make sure you purchase the special unlocks from the Lore Store within the next 2 weeks.

We’ve also received our shipment of For The King Art Books for our Kickstarter backers, and they look amazing! We order extra copies which will be available via our website. This is a one time very limited run, so if you’re interested, head over there now to check them out.

120 full color pages with a gorgeous matte black cover and gold foil logo make this the perfect coffee table book. Inside there’s tons of images from early development onwards explaining our processes and showing off some never before seen concept art and fully rendered spreads.
