About This Game

"It is said that when living beings perish, their souls return to the Nether Abyss. Should a soul attempt to trek upward from the depths, it must endure myriad tribulations."

Yet I choose to draw my blade and storm the Abyss!

Nether Abyss is a dark Chinese fantasy action-roguelite that seamlessly integrates high-stakes extraction mechanics. Here, you are a nameless undead crawling out from the lowest blood pools. Through countless cycles of shattering and reshaping in the eternal samsara, you will scavenge the lingering obsessions of the fallen, slay ancient demons and death guards of the old dynasty, and draw your blade against the heavens as you climb!

Define Your Aesthetics of Slaughter

In Nether Abyss, every descent into the abyss allows you to fully customize your combat style.

Sword, Spear, Bow, Darts, Staff, Greatsword, and Katana. Seven distinct weapons, each possessing its own exclusive move sets and combos. Unleash devastating greatsword slashes or sweeping spear strikes, and freely combine them with unique weapon skills to forge your signature build.

Arcane Treasures (Fabao): Deploy an array of ancient mystical treasures to assist you in battle, annihilating any monstrous entities that dare block your path amidst a flurry of blades and fire!

It’s Only Loot If You Make It Out Alive

The abyss is littered with priceless treasures, yet death lurks at every corner. Always remember: die in the abyss, and you lose everything.

When your inventory is bursting with god-tier gear but your health is flashing red, you will face the ultimate dilemma—do you push forward out of sheer greed, or seek out an "Extraction Point" on the map to safely retreat back to camp?

Of course, there is always the option to have it all: spend a fortune of gold to secure and ship your most precious equipment back to camp ahead of time, buying an ultimate insurance policy for your hard-earned spoils.

Rally Support from Powerful Allies

Within the safety of the Undercrypt camp, you will cross paths with eccentric eccentrics and formidable allies who will aid you in growing stronger.

Old Cow the Blacksmith: Continuously swings his heavy hammer to forge peerless divine weapons that are otherwise impossible to find in the depths.

The Monkey Merchant: Serves as your inexhaustible source of vital survival supplies and equipment.

The Mesmerizing Meng Po: Do not forget to visit the stunningly beautiful Meng Po to spend your soul points and unlock permanent talent and attribute upgrades.

...

Face the Avatars of Dread Within the Abyss

Venture deeper into the vast abyss, and you will encounter eerie, terrifying entities and unknown perils. You must face the giant "Draconic Lord of Gluttony" bearing a mountain of sins, the formidable neutral "Wandering Deities" leading armies of spirits through the wastes, and the insatiably greedy "False Buddha" who seeks to strip you of all your wealth.

Teetering on the brink of exhaustion, weaponize your skill and wit to achieve the miraculous feat of a mortal slaying gods!
