Lore

The God Fall and the Rise of the Slayer

The Day the Gods Struck

Long ago the gods harvested Qi from every life to preserve immortality. When humans learned to wield Qi as Elemancers, the gods struck the mighty Zhou Kingdom overnight—slaying the king and hunting Elemancers. History calls it the God Fall.

Cheng, the Elemancer

Cheng lost family on the God Fall. To tear down the gods’ rule, you decipher lost scrolls, train under Elemental Masters, and refine the flow of Qi until you can challenge the divine.

The Star Fall Society

Fear bends the masses, but the Star Fall Society resists. Led by a secretive Mentor, scattered rebels unite to pierce divine rule and clear the skies for humankind.

Trailers & Gameplay

Witness the revolution. See the Zhou Kingdom in motion.
