By proving yourself on the battlefield, you will slowly regain your divinity, which you can use to improve your character. Besides tracking your progress in the campaign log, there is no upkeep between scenarios; all the new weapons and items are picked up during play.

While the core gameplay focuses on the cooperation between teams of two, there will be a dedicated three-player variant and a thrilling solo variant for those seeking solitary adventures.

Will you and your fellow gods overcome the trials of the Underworld, reclaim your divinity, and restore balance to Olympus?

The fate of the gods and the very fabric of the mythological world hang in the balance.

Embrace your divinity within and embark on a quest you will never forget!
