Fast paced action combat
The combat system of Shadowfall is built to be fast and engaging. It aims to bridge the gap between third-person shooters, beat-'em-ups, and action RPGs. You aim free to land your attacks, need to know your class to peform devastating combos and be fast and creative to use the movement abilities of your character to take advantage on the battlefield.
Create your unique gladiator
Become a master of your class and choose between 5 iconic fantasy archetypes that offer different playstyles to fulfill the roles of damage dealers, supporters and healers. You can customize your character from the beginning by choosing between different races from the world of Aranthia and give your character the unique look that you want. From this point on you gain new armor pieces and weapons that make you stand out on the battlefield by playing the game and completing different achievements and challenges.
Small scale PvP Battles
The Ranked Arena (2vs2, 3vs3) is the core competitive game mode of Shadowfall. Fight your way to the top of the leaderboards by building a team of 3 gladiators to compete in an best of 5 elimination mode on small symmetric arena maps against players from all over the world. You can also team up with 2 additional playes for the second ranked game mode Domination (5vs5). In this respawn based game mode, you are going to capture and hold 3 flags on a middle sized mostly symmetric map with the goal of reaching the score limit before the enemy team. Teamwork and individual performance alike are key to be victorious on the battlefield so be ruthless and creative on your own, but work as one unit with your team to reach the full potential of your characters.
Progression Systems
As a mercenary walking between the lines of the Shadowpact and the Lightsworn, other Side Factions of Aranthia seek for your support to complete Bounties and Challenges for them to reward you with experience, weapons and armor such as minor cosmetic unlocks like calling cards. Increase your renown rank of the different side factions and get even bigger rewards. Shadowfall features a replayable leveling system for your account and each of your characters which is called Ascension system. This allows you to unlock class specific armor sets and weapons for your favorite character classes.
An ever expanding Battleground
The core PvP modes of Shadowfall are only the beginning of what you can expect from this conflict. We plan to add new PvP modes of bigger scale for up to 30 players such as PvE Coop missions that let you dive deeper into the world of Aranthia to understand what fate this world has experienced so far, what the origin of the Shadowfall was and what the future holds up for this shattered world. As the core of the game, the small scale PvP will receive new maps, game modes and balancing patches for the existing classes but there will also be new playable classes and races added to the core game in the future.
