About the Game

Pulled from death into a dying land

You were nobody: homeless, asleep in the open when the fog rolled in. It should have killed you. Instead it dragged you into the Tractus: a cursed region drowning in a necrotic mist that raises the dead, twists the living, and rots the land itself. Now you wake in a strange castle the fog cannot touch, with one goal: to find a way out.

EX-Tractus is a soulslike extraction game for up to four players. Raid the fog-choked ruins of a doomed land, fight for every scrap of loot, and claw your way back to safety before undead, the fog, or something much worse take what's yours.

Risk everything, extract alive

This is the heart of every raid: what you carry in, you lose when you die. There are no second chances and no safety nets in the field. Press your luck for more valuables, and you may never make it back. Extract, and everything you hauled out is yours to keep.

  • Soulslike combat - Deliberate, stamina-driven melee combat. Every action counts.

  • Pick up your bow for ranged precision, or master magic to bend the fight your way

  • You're just an ordinary survivor - Every ounce of power comes from the weapons, armor, and enchanted relics you pull from the Tractus

  • Only the most powerful items and most dangerous roads will save the world. Will you risk it all?

  • Find out what happened, and if anybody survived: You may not be alone. Or are you?

Better together

Drop in with up to three friends. Coordinate your styles: a shield to hold the line, a bow to thin the horde, magic to break an ambush, or scatter to cover more ground and gamble that everyone makes it to extraction. The fog rewards the bold and buries the greedy.

Build between raids

The unknown castle is your one refuge. Bank your hard-won loot in storage that survives death, then put it to work:

  • Recycle and Smelt raw ore and materials at the forge

  • Craft weapons, armor, and enchantments at the workbench

  • Cook food and brew potions, every little advantage can be the difference between the end or survival

  • Choose your stakes: Announce yourself to the fog before you depart; brighter flames draw deadlier threats and richer rewards

Descend deeper

Raid mountaintop cathedrals, abandoned temples, mist-shrouded lakesides, and the buried places beneath them. Unlock crypts, interiors, and boss arenas as you return at higher stakes, hunting the truth behind the fog and the necromancers who thrive in it.

Can you escape the Tractus?

The fog comes and goes without warning, and no one knows what waits at its heart. Gear up, raid hard, extract clean, and find your way out before the land claims you for good.
