Tribes of Midgard (2021)
Gear up, journey across Midgard (and beyond!) in this epic Survival ARPG adventure. Build, craft, explore, and fight creatures of legend to discover the secrets of the Sanctuary stones. Valhalla awaits, Einherjar! Save The Day, Your Way: Travel across procedurally generated worlds to harvest resources, gather loot, craft powerful Weapons, level up, and chase chickens in the most colorful Ragnarök you’ve ever seen! Survival Mode: Explore at your own pace and build your perfect Viking home! Choose among 90 skills as you progress and fight your way through towering Jötnar until you can face off against the all-powerful Ancients. Discover what awaits you at the end of your epic journey. Saga Mode: Challenge yourself in this fast-paced adventure to face the forces of Ragnarök before the endless winter. Unlock and specialize among 8 Classes to defend your Village for as long as you can. The greater the feat, the greater the reward when you take the Bifröst! Face Colossal Threats: The bigger they are, the harder they’ll fall! And trust us—they’re pretty big! Descending from Valhalla, your Einherjar starts with nothing but a loincloth and a save the world attitude. Stand against the ever-looming threat of the gigantic Jötnar, and the even more threatening Ancients that command them. Unleash mighty Spells contained within your Weapons, block incoming attacks with your trusty Shield, and time your evades in this action-packed gameplay against these screen-filling baddies! Forge Your Viking Legend: You are in control of your own destiny, Einherjar! Create unique character builds by leveling up and choosing game-changing abilities from the Norse gods. Hunt rare resources and loot powerful Runes that will modify your playstyle in surprising ways. Complete in-game events, sail boats across the oceans, take on NPC quests, and raid dungeons to grow your legend further! Or simply fish! Not only are you up for the challenge, this is what you were chosen to do. Rally The Tribe: You don’t have to do it alone, save some glory for the rest of us! Adventure solo or form a tribe of up to 10 players in online PvE co-op. Play together to build a functioning village, complete with formidable defenses, towering structures and top-of-the-line crafting stations! Or just an aesthetically pleasing Viking homestead with some well-earned decorations! The game difficulty adapts to the amount of players in a world. Note that we recommend taking on Ragnarök with a tribe of four or more. Keep Up the Fight: Never has the end of the world been so bright and fun! Continuous free updates and limited time Festive Events bring even mightier treasures to the endgame. Play to accumulate Golden Horns and redeem them to unlock a myriad of recipes, including Starter Kits, Runes and Equipment, to make each new session more rewarding. Progress through Valhalla Levels and complete hundreds of challenges for even more. Make each saga your own by wearing your best costumes and bringing your cutest pets along!
