Fangjie:Shattered Altars

The voxel world has shattered, its altars broken and its order lost. You wake beneath a great tree as an adventurer meant to put it back together: pick your race and class, head into a world that is different every time, and find the lost altars.

Terrain, biomes and encounters are recombined every time, so there is no fixed route. Forests, snowfields, deserts, grasslands and islands each have their own look, and day, night and the seasons keep turning. More than ten kinds of wonders, from a colossal tree to frozen falls and a whale-bone harbor, wait to be found, and gliders, boats and a grappling hook carry you over mountains and seas.

Every village has its own people and trades. The blacksmith upgrades and modifies your weapons, the stable looks after your pets and hatches eggs, the warehouse keeps your loot safe, and someone in the tavern always wants a word. Spend time with the villagers and their friendship grows; after dark, the village needs you to help its guards hold the line.

Human, Elf, Orc and Undead each bring their own talents, and the four classes play completely differently: the Warrior charges in behind a shield, the Mage commands the elements, the Ranger shoots from afar and the Ninja strikes from behind.

• A skill tree with three paths and freely spent points

• Pick one talent per tier, so the same class can grow into different styles

• Passives and a star map to fine-tune your build

• Advance into a stronger class once you are ready, or change class and start fresh

Dodge-roll, raise your shield, time a parry. The last hit of a combo sweeps the whole pack, and a wounded foe can be finished in a single execute. Every enemy attack is telegraphed, so if you read it you walk away clean.

Each main boss has its own arena and a full moveset. Once one falls, you decide its fate, and each choice brings different rewards and consequences. More than twenty kinds of regional bosses are scattered across the world, waiting for a challenger.

Hundreds of pieces of gear, each with its own look. Complete a set to unlock its set bonus, and random affixes make the same item play differently. The blacksmith can upgrade and modify your gear, and you can dye or transmog the looks you love.

Twenty-four creatures can become your companions: tame them in the wild, or bring an egg back to the stable and hatch it. Companions fight at your side and use their own skills; once your bond is strong enough you can ride them, and some will carry you into the sky.

Explore at your own pace alone, or invite friends through Steam and adventure together with up to 8 players, bosses included.
