About This Game

BATARA: FATE UNBOUND is a dark fantasy Sekiro-like featuring 2D hand painted visuals, developed from the beauty of diverse Indonesian aesthetic traditions. Step forth as Moriyan, The Unfated, and battle your way through the shattered lands of Yrdra. Master parry-focused combat, clash with ambitious gods, and cleanse this world of corruption.

This world is sick. It has been 500 long years since the skies split, gods trembled, the realm itself broke open, and something dark crept in through the cracks. In a world where reading the future is common, everyone knows their destiny. And yet, rumors are beginning to spread of a young man with no fate.

Moriyan has lived his whole life in the remote jungles of Wyndra, yet when on his 20th birthday his Fate-reading goes wrong, the tyrant King Caraka catches wind of his scent, and he is forced to flee.

Fight your way free of Caraka’s clutches, and unravel the mystery of the poisonous Starlight that has plunged the world into chaos. Along the way you will meet friends, foes, opportunists, tricksters, companions, scholars, and more, each with their own goals and ambitions. Discover the truth of the king’s madness, Moriyan’s destiny, and make your mark on the world of Yrdra.

Hone your skills in precise, fast paced swordfights against bloodthirsty soldiers, twisted beasts, and dangerous spirits. Take on powerful bosses and even parry Death itself as you master Sekiro-like Parry-Focused combat. Feel the rhythm of battle as you deflect astonishing flurries with precise timing.

Unlock strategic combat equipment and magical abilities, reflect arrows back at your enemies, and relish in hundreds of unique execution animations.
