'Ark Of Charon' Leaving Steam Early Access, Full Launch Next Week

by Rainier on Nov. 1, 2024 @ 9:31 a.m. PDT

Ark Of Charon is a distinct blend of tower defense and colony simulation with Ghibli-inspired visual design.

Ark Of Charon will deliver a seamless blend of colony simulation and tower defense as players take on the role of caretaker to the beast-like sapling of the World Tree. Only by guiding the World Tree sapling to its nursery will it be able to grow and restore balance to a world teetering on the brink of disaster.

Gather resources along the way and turn a small settlement into a bustling mobile fortress, but be warned, space atop the sapling is limited, requiring strategic construction and awareness of gravity, which is essential to maximizing a settlement’s potential and ensuring it doesn’t all come toppling down at the first sign of trouble.

Helpful familiars inhabit each caretaker’s colony and can be instructed to harvest, forage, and mine for resources at campsites littered across the route to the nursery. Old relics and lost technologies once used by the human inhabitants of this world await, too, and can be used by caretakers to strengthen the colony and unlock special resources that will strengthen their chances of survival.

Leaving the safety of campsites will see the colony's strength and power tested by fierce creatures attracted to the life force that emanates from the sapling. Only through the careful construction of a fortified colony on the monolithic sapling's back can caretakers defeat the relentless hordes that lay ahead on their quest. Deploy powerful weapons, stockpile ammunition, and construct robust defenses to protect the sapling from evil forces determined to halt its journey.

Currently available on Steam Early AccessArk Of Charon will now launch on November 7th!

The 1.0 update spruces things up with a bunch of new features and overhauls to the game, such as new regions and enemies to encounter, reimagined weaponry to fight off the hordes that await in the darkness, and an extensive array of both visual and sound improvements that add an extra layer of polish to Ark of Charon.

Key Features:

  • Fight Back Against the Monsters: While on your journey, monsters will attack relentlessly. Construct various weapons to combat them.
  • Gather Resources: Before doing anything else, you must gather resources. Instruct your familiars to mine and harvest, collecting the necessary resources.
  • Construct Buildings: Stockpiling items, manufacturing ammunition, and building defenses are essential to protect the sapling. As space atop the sapling is limited, you must construct efficiently in preparation for the journey.
  • Embark on a Journey: Once you are prepared, embark on your journey. Check for what items are obtainable in the next area and carefully choose your destination.
  • Unlock Technology: Unlock the technology once used by the human inhabitants of this world and make use of it on your journey. Occasionally, relics may be found underground, allowing you to create more powerful weapons and facilities.

 Ark Of Charon is coming to PC (Steam) on November 7, 2024.
