The game is all about cooperative action, so understanding how to grow your character is key. You'll be playing as a Descendant, tasked with saving humanity from invaders on the Ingris continent.

The game uses Unreal Engine 5, so expect some seriously cool visuals blending reality and sci-fi fantasy.

• Descendants: Each character has unique abilities. Knowing your chosen Descendant inside and out is the first step to any good build.
• Equipment: This is huge! You'll need a variety of equipment to grow stronger. You get this by clearing scenario missions and especially through World Missions where cooperation is vital. Expect some epic battles with massive bosses.
• Missions: Both scenario missions and world missions are where you'll spend a lot of your time. Clearing them is how you progress and get the gear you need.
• Gameplay: Understanding the core mechanics of shooting, looting, and using your abilities will help you make better build choices.

While you won't find a step-by-step build here, keep these elements in mind as you play. As you get deeper into the game, you'll start seeing how different equipment and character skills synergize. Don't be afraid to experiment and see what works best for your playstyle!
