Overview

About this game

Crush. Claim. Conquer

In Ashbane, you forge a mercenary guild from nothing and turn it into a force tempered by coin, steel, and hard choices. Recruit and customize hardened warriors, accept high-risk contracts, lead brutal expeditions, and build a name the world can’t ignore.

Three Campaigns, Three Loyalties

Play one of three campaigns, each with its own story, conflicts, and consequences.

  • Join the Oathbound, the disciplined force pushing back against the Dreadforged.

  • Lead the Dreadforged, outcasts returned to break the world that broke them.

  • Or remain Unsworn, an independent guild that works for both and answers only to profit.

Forge Your Guild

Recruit fresh blades and shape them into veterans.

  • Equip gear, develop attributes, and spend ability points to unlock new tools for the fight.

  • With 40 unique classes to build around, your roster becomes your strategy.

  • Upgrade your Guildhouse between contracts, and rely on campsites when the road gets long.

Take the Contract

Push into hand-built regions where routes, threats, and rewards shift with each deployment.

  • Procedural encounters ensure you never embark on the exact same expedition twice.

  • Earn renown and unlock higher-stakes jobs as your guild’s name spreads.

  • Choices branch, outcomes persist, and the world reacts.

Command the Battlefield

Turn-based tactical combat where positioning and timing decide everything.

  • Move to claim angles, control space, and set up decisive turns.

  • Unleash abilities that punish tight formations and swing fights in your favor.

  • If the fight turns, escape or surrender, because death is permanent.

Fight Together, Fight for Glory

Stand with your allies where co-op runs reward coordination, and PvP ranks the bold.

  • Build a warband and set out in co-op, local or online, for up to 6 players.

  • Enter PvP with matchmaking, challenge friends, and climb the leaderboards to prove your guild’s strength.

Built for Modding

Ashbane is built to be modder friendly.

  • Tweak the rules, add content, and expand the game your way.

  • Create new classes, traits, skills, items, expedition maps, and more.
