'Guardians of Ember' Early Access Update Adds New Content

Guardians of Ember is a combination of hack’n slash and traditional MMORPG with a focus on action-oriented combat in PVE and PVP as well as near endless character optimization.

After the success of Dragon’s Prophet and Runes of Magic, upcoming hack and slash/MMORPG hybrid Guardians of Ember will take on the mantle from Runewaker Entertainment’s past hits. The game offers a classic hack and slash experience with enormous hordes of enemies, deep crafting and enchanting systems, strong questline and exciting boss battles. To mix things up, Guardians of Ember comes with Runewaker’s signature-features like a housing system and the unique dual-class system.

After years of war the world of Olyndale has descended into chaos.

As a Guardian of Ember, your brotherhood marks the last line of defense against a dark menace. Sinister forces threaten the land and can only be stopped by the ancient Ember. The future of Olyndale lies on your shoulders. It is your fate - and your duty - to retrieve the magic stone and bring back peace to Olyndale.

Choose from six different classes and extend your skill set by selecting a secondary class after reaching level 15. A variety of 58 different regions with over 60 randomized and challenging dungeons await, where you battle against monsters, mortals and the living dead during your crusade to retrieve the Ember; different PvP modes as well as more than 300 skills and thousands of items will guarantee hours of exciting gameplay, extended by regular content updates.

Act 4 offers exciting new regions as well as sinister dungeons to explore and increases the level cap to 50. 

Dark news reach the heroes of Olyndale these days: The legendary Ironspine Fort has fallen into the hands of the enemies and is being held by the sadistic Ramos Elves, which have formed an alliance with Andromalius. But what sinister deeds is Andromalius really scheming and what bigger threats lie ahead of the Guardians of Ember?

After releasing Act 3 on Christmas eve and adding the hardcore mode with the recent Iron Hero event, Olyndale welcomes players once more to roam its lands and explore the secrets of Act 4. Fierce enemies are waiting in ten new zones while bigger bosses protect valuable loot in sixteen new dungeons. To make looting easy, two new pets, the Blue Magpie and the Greenwood Chameleon, are added to the game. Players should expect challenging fights for which they need new gear and the best skill combinations on their way up to level 50 - the new level cap for Guardians of Ember.

To celebrate the arrival of Act 4, Guardians of Ember is now on sale through Steam Early Access with a 25% discount until the 26th of February.
