Duskenra

Claim the day. Survive the night.

A strange forest waits beyond your gates. Somewhere under its branches lie new spells, forgotten treasure and things better left undisturbed. Go looking. Just leave yourself a way home.

Duskenra is a single-player, third-person fantasy survival adventure from Ritrat Studio. Explore a continuous realm, build up your keep and gather a band of peculiar magical guardians. When night falls, stand beside them against raiders and towering creatures.

01   Find your power

Begin with a rune blade and Keep Recall. Discover fire, ice, lightning and stranger magic across the world, then choose which powers deserve a place in your nine-slot spell belt. Earn experience in battle and choose upgrades as you grow.

02   Build your sanctuary

Spend the scrap you collect on structures, workers and mythic defenders. Strengthen your keep, command your guardians or take control of one yourself. Fire can spread and buildings can break: surviving the fight is only part of keeping a home.

03   Follow the lights

Venture into Witchwood, explore eerie interiors and search ruins for treasure. Travel beyond the mainland toward volcanic, snowy, jungle and kingdom islands. Find a boat on the coast or seek out an azure drake to take to the skies.

04   Bring the storm

Freeze a threat, send lightning through a fight and turn a desperate defense into a blast of color. If you need to get home, channel Keep Recall and fly back to the castle as a streak of light. Choose your moment: the ten-second preparation leaves you vulnerable.
