About Wartales

Wartales poster

Wartales throws you into a harsh open world a century after the Edoran Empire fell to an unprecedented plague, leaving a land rife with mercenary work, banditry, and thievery where honor has become an almost forgotten virtue. You are not the destined hero of this story; instead you lead a band of unscrupulous characters whose only goals are to survive and thrive by any means necessary, chasing riches and recognition in a medieval world defined by combat, death, and greed.

The heart of the experience lies in developing your own group of mercenaries, recruiting companions with unique specializations, skill sets, weapon preferences, and personalities as you take on dangerous quests. An intuitive RPG progression and crafting system lets you customize your group's skills, equipment, and appearance, while developing your camp with luxuries, tools, and gear helps your team endure and recover from each day's hardships. Beyond combat, a vast and mysterious open world awaits exploration as you pursue notoriety and wealth across its varied reaches. Blending adventure, indie, RPG, and strategy elements, Wartales delivers a gritty, survival-focused journey on PC where only the bravest and most ambitious see their tale written.
