Arhaekon Gets Early Access Date

Independent developer Predict Edumedia has announced that its tactical turn-based dungeon crawler Arhaekon will be coming to Steam Early Access on June 4, 2024. The game sees players explore dungeons while obtaining treasures and knowledge, commanding units, and rebuilding civilization.

Arhaekon is set in a dark fantasy world where a lost civilization is caught up in a battle between two god-like factions: the Arhaekon, who seek to save mankind from destruction, and the Prospherisors, who pledged to destroy humanity if it attempts to transcend its limits and disrupt the balance of the void. As a consequence of mages seeking power, half of a continent is destroyed and covered in dark clouds, obscuring the sun and causing famine and death. Both of these events coincide with the opening of a Prospherisor’s tomb, unleashing a being capable of controlling the minds of humans and driving them to extinction by turning them against each other. Upon being awakened by a priest after their tomb is similarly disturbed, it falls to an Arhaekon to prevent the genocide of mankind.
