About the Game

BECOME THE DRAGON. HIDE YOUR POWER. DESTROY THE UNDEAD.

In a world consumed by darkness, an ancient dragon takes the form of a barbarian to hunt the forces of the undead while remaining unseen by humans who fear and despise all dragonkind.
You are the last surviving golden dragon, forced to conceal your true nature as the world slowly collapses under the spread of dark magic.

Explore grim crypts, battle hordes of undead, uncover ancient spells, and forge your own path in a fantasy action RPG with realistic visuals, developed by a solo developer using Unreal Engine 5.
