The PS5 adaptation moves to a mythic era to showcase large-scale, skill-based battles powered by Krafton’s “Mass Technology.”

Overview

  • Revealed during PlayStation’s State of Play, the first trailer shows hundreds of on-screen foes cut down in fast-paced melee combat.
  • Players step into the role of a towering Rekon warlord who dual-wields massive blades in sweeping battlefield encounters.
  • Krafton positions the game as a premium single-player experience with no multiplayer or live-service components.
  • The story is set roughly 1,500 years before the novels to provide an accessible entry point for newcomers while expanding the universe for fans.
  • Development is underway at Krafton Montreal for PlayStation 5, with no release date announced and the project still using a working title.
