About ELEX

ELEX is a handcrafted action role-playing game from the award-winning creators of the Gothic series, set in a brand-new post-apocalyptic science fantasy universe. It drops you into a huge, seamless game world stocked with original characters, mutated creatures, deep moral choices and hard-hitting action, giving PC RPG fans an open landscape to explore on their own terms.

The conflict revolves around Elex itself, a powerful resource that grants people great, magic-like abilities but also strips away their emotions, turning them into cold, indifferent creatures. As you join the war being waged over this substance, the tension between humanity and detachment becomes the central question the game keeps asking you to answer.

Ultimately the fate of the world of Magalan rests on the choice at the heart of ELEX: whether emotion and humaneness or cold, synthetic logic should rule. That decision runs through the adventure alongside its combat and exploration, letting your actions shape which philosophy prevails. For players drawn to ambitious, choice-driven action RPGs set in unusual worlds, ELEX pairs the pedigree of the Gothic team with a distinctive blend of science fiction and fantasy.
