Key Features
Reap their souls
Endless hex-grid arenas filled with monsters, traps, sinful souls, and 7 sacrilegious bosses await. Slay them all with a variety of customizable scythes, crossbows, and powerful Blessings from the Gods of Death around the world. Master the scythe and crossbow to maximize damage to your foes with a unique combat system that rewards clever use of your dual-wielded weapons.

Gather materials and craft equipment
The spoils of battle are the tools of your trade. Gather materials from the battlefield and work with your mentors in the arcane arts to craft new and ever more powerful weapons, armor, and consumables.

Customize your build
Every reaper carves their own path! Mix and match your crafted equipment with skills gained from an expansive skill tree at the start of every run. Then choose carefully from the randomized Blessings you obtain mid-run to create powerful builds!

Life after death
Explore The Academy, built for the training and arming of Death’s various Reapers. Seek enlightenment from mentors, take on quests to build your relationships, and unlock sage advice, knowledge, and powerful support from your peers. Learn the stories of the dead by interacting with the Academy’s denizens.

Built for portable play
Play at home or on the go with crisp visuals and refined haptics that let you feel every heavy-metal guitar riff and critical hit on go for Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, Steam Deck, and XBOX on Handhelds.
