Knight of the Forgotten Realm is a 2.5D side-scroller action-adventure soulslike set in a war torn-land ravaged by demonic beings known as the Ancient Ones. After an unprecedented attack on a critical outpost, a god-like being named Lucian saves your life. In return, the Eternal orders you to head east, to venture into forbidden territory to uncover lost knowledge crucial to the realm. Will you survive the Eternal's call? Traverse A War-torn Land 34 years ago, the Great Burning scarred the realm of Austeria. A once peaceful and harmonious realm, thrown into chaos by a coup d'etat lead by a traitorous royal guard, Typherius. Rivers of blood flowed through the streets of cities who would not bend the knee, who would not denounce the Eternals and burn any knowledge of Eternia. Many paid the ultimate price in the years to come until Ancient Ones flooded the eastern lands of Elemore, halting the bloody crusade led by Typherius and refocusing humanities efforts on survival. Visceral CombatInspired by the soulslike genre, experience a visceral combo-based combat system that is easy to learn, but hard to master. On your journey, you'll discover ancient relics lost to decades of war, unlock numerous abilities, and encounter bosses that'll challenge even the most decorated knight. Overcharge Your SoulAs you gain momentum in combat, Lucian will grant you the capability to overcharge your soul. While in this overcharged state, Vali's power is significantly increased, providing him an edge in combat. The more successful you are in combat, the more Lucian will lend you his power.
