Wolcen Studio has announced the first round of alpha testing for its new “ExtrAction RPG” codenamed Project Pantheon. According to the team, the game offers players “intense hack’n’slash action and high-stakes extraction gameplay.” All this is housed in a “fantastical reimagining of historical mythologies.”
Project Pantheon is a free-to-play live service game that will take players on a journey into a strange afterlife, where they are tasked by Death itself to aid in restoring order to a shattered reality. Players explore diverse maps, battling enemies in dynamic PvPvE combat. Successful extractions will see players haul back valuable loot, while failure may result in losing their gear for good. In their hidden fortress, players will be upgrading their base, customizing loadouts, and experimenting with gear to find their optimal playstyle. An open market will foster a player-driven economy that is going to allow players to trade and support each other.
Developers released a new trailer to provide viewers with a peek at how the game plays and its dark, moody setting.
Players are invited to sign up for closed alpha testing that’s set to begin in the coming weeks. European players will have an opportunity to try out Project Pantheon on January 25-26, 2025. North American players will have their chance from February 1-2, 2025. Closed alpha applications are being accepted here.
