The Bloodline is a Open World Fantasy Action RPG where you take the role of a descendant of the Harbinger bloodline - a lineage gifted the power of foresight by an ancient god to protect Eudros from the Unforgiven. A legend that seemed faded in time… but your visions show The Unforgiven marching, the Harbinger defeated, and the land devastated. A journey not written in stone, but in blood. The adventure is yours. Follow questlines and help the people of Eudros, or roam the world freely at your own pace, allowing organic opportunities to arise. Reform bonds between kingdoms, construct your village, and prepare the world for the return of The Unforgiven. Explore the world, join various guilds, hunt magical creatures or become a bard at the local tavern – the world is yours to enjoy and experience how you desire. Be rewarded by playing how you want – nearly every action you do has a level associated with it. From jumping, climbing and running to ragdolling, wall-running and swimming. Craft gadgets and equipment, catch rare fish, cook exotic dishes, brew potions, transform yourself into a beast… Plan your adventures by using your foresight – the ability to see events that will transpire in the near future. From meteor storms, goblin attacks and even ghostly pirate ships! A vast world to explore! There are different biomes with distinctive flora & fauna filled with impressive landmarks: blooming towns, magnificent castles, mysterious lakes, dangerous dungeons… and much more. Define your own play style! With over 500 skills to unlock and hundreds of different weapons and equipment at your disposal, your character is truly your own. Will you be a silent assassin, or a paladin adorned with plate mail? Or perhaps you’d rather do something more unique - a necromancer who uses martial arts, or an engineer who can transform into animals using druidic magic? The choice is yours entirely.
