"Developers Wildlight Entertainment seem to have been unable to decide what kind of game is, and the first sign of that is in how it mixes together fantasy, sci-fi, magic, and modern guns.

Released January 26, the free-to-play game is a fantasy-sci‑fi MOBA-like 3v3 PvP hero shooter with base defense and raid mechanics. The game debuted at the 2025 Game Awards and received a poor online reaction. Matches start at a base where players pick heroes, set defensive walls, then ride mounts to search for loot and open chests while encountering the opposing team. Visual design blends fantasy, sci-fi, magic, and modern guns into a homogenized style that removes character and grit. Player metrics show rapid drop-off in its second week, driven by uninteresting gameplay and lack of memorable elements.
