Alaloth: Champions of The Four Kingdoms is a fantasy action role-playing game, inspired by pen & paper games, glorious classics and recent masterpieces.

Alaloth - Champions of The Four Kingdoms is a high-fantasy RPG set in a dark world inspired by the darkest period of The Middle Ages. It's a story about great warriors, war and epic fights. Players take on the roles of mighty heroes (or villains), undertaking quests, building reputations, and gaining ancient relics and secrets that will allow them to triumph. The challenge doesn’t end after the first playthrough – new game modes are activated after finishing the game for the first time, giving players even more options for exploring the kingdoms and customizing their characters. Alaloth brings the ARPG dynamics to a new level with a skill-based gameplay in a gritty, dark, mature environment filled with magic and blood!

Set in a vibrant world corrupted by darkness and full of lethal dangers, the game brings players to face an ancient evil, in an epic journey through devastated lands, plagued by conflicts with noble families and clans fighting each other. Alaloth combines a hardcore combat system featuring motion captured combos and executions and the depth of cRPG that fans of the genre have always enjoyed playing.

The combat system is the core of the game experience. You will have to master different fighting styles to survive in combat. You can choose among three different Ways: Ways of Arms, Ways of Nature, Ways of Gods. Each ways allows player to spec his character following a specific class. Each class has its own abilities to use along with combat combos that are commons for all the champions.

Each hero can hire up to 3 companions during the game. Or even group with other players on hunt for larger and deadliest creatures in the world.

Gamera Interactive did a lot of research and, additionally, fantasy is something that is still appealing for a very large audience. The game is set between old school classic RPG and modern action games. All the animations used for the combat system are motion captured for a gorgeous effect. Moreover, every single environment is hand painted by the studio’s artists.


 "Alaloth is Gamera Interactive's flagship project and partnering with such a great partner and respected publisher as All in! Games will be invaluable to its success. They loved the game right from the very first pitch at GamesCom,” said Alberto Belli, CEO of Gamera Interactive. “All in! Games really respects our vision and, along the way, they will be able to provide the resources we didn't have access to, turning Alaloth into a bigger and better game."

"We are thrilled to be working together with Gamera Interactive,” said Piotr Żygadło, COO of All in! Games. “We want to help Gamera Interactive reach the full potential of Alaloth, which has a strong foundation in the fact that the lore is incredibly rich and Chris Avellone has been involved in the project. We plan to make Alaloth an amazing game together."

All in! Games and Gamera Interactive plan to release Alaloth in 2020 on PC and Xbox One, aiming to make a polished finished experience in respect to scale and content.  


Alaloth takes players to a vibrant fantasy world created with the support of the RPG legend Chris Avellone. The game lets players explore a fully realized ARPG landscape that is a mixture of old school classics and modern action games. The dark god Alaloth has descended to the mortal realm, lying imprisoned in the Valley of Storms and wreaking havoc. Destroy Alaloth within his prison to free the lands from demise. Do it as a hero… or as a dark lord.
