What is Deathbound?

Deathbound is a single-player, third-person action RPG set in Akratya, a city combining medieval life with remnants of technology as it falls into ruin during a crusade. You explore streets, arenas, and places of worship, fight enemies, and absorb fallen warriors’ essences to form a party. Talent trees shape their abilities, while their past affiliations affect how well they work together.
