The news coincided with an all-new trailer highlighting the game’s incredibly customizable base building systems, as well as the reveal of a threatening new late-game enemy type: the Gorgons!
You are the Defier, subjected to a mythic plot across the ruined isles.

Gather resources, craft and upgrade your gear, and face down the trials of the Gods with up to three friends.
