About the Game

Fractured Core is a story-driven JRPG set in a cyberpunk world where a team of mercenaries takes on high-risk missions—only to uncover secrets that could change everything. As corporate wars rage behind the scenes and society teeters on the edge, your choices will shape the future.

Follow the journey of a group of mercenaries as they navigate a world teetering on the edge of collapse. Along the way, they’ll cross paths with a diverse cast of characters, each with their own ambitions, struggles, and secrets.

From everyday citizens trying to survive to corporate elites guarding dangerous truths, your choices will determine who you ally with, who you help, and how the story unfolds.

Engage in strategic, turn-based battles where every move matters. Throughout your journey, you will find various foes each with their own strengths and weaknesses. 

Take up your guns and blades or harness the power of Psionic Combat, which allows for a range of strategic abilities. Use psionic abilities to buff allies, weaken enemies with debuffs, and inflict powerful status effects to gain the upper hand. Stun them to deal a massive amount of damage.


Customize your characters to better suit your style, each with different elemental and combat proficiency. Equip them with various weapons and mods obtainable from your journey and find the right one that suit your playstyle.

From neon-lit cityscapes and corporate strongholds to desolate slums and captivating countrysides, every environment is rich with stories, secrets, and opportunities waiting to be uncovered.
