Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“EX-Tractus aims to combine the best elements of some of my favourite genres of the last years into one package, while providing the thrill of a last second extract without resorting to PvP. Foundation and game loop are in place, but "thrill" is vastly different per person. Therefore I want to shape the upcoming locations, new or improved mechanics, and gameplay tunes together with players.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“The expected Early Access duration is approximately 18 months.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The current lore plans for three more maps, including multiple boss encounters, magic and enchantment systems, more armor and weapon variety and tiers, more enemy types and variants and more side-quests. And most importantly: More loot.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The early access version offers 2 large maps, 8 main quests, and several hidden areas and puzzles. It already supports solo or up to 4-player coop. Five difficulty levels for tuning to your preferred style.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Price will increase over time as more content is rolled out.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“EX-Tractus provides ingame feedback functionality which is read and listened to. I will also be active on the Steam forums.

Due to EX-Tractus' per-raid character, it is built with customizations in mind. While these are not exposed currently, adding more customization hurts noone: Those who don't want it play the intended experience, and those who do can change enemy variations, loot drops, various difficulty settings, etc. What those will be is up to you.”

About This Game

Pulled from death into a dying land

You were nobody: homeless, asleep in the open when the fog rolled in. It should have killed you. Instead it dragged you into the Tractus: a cursed region drowning in a necrotic mist that raises the dead, twists the living, and rots the land itself. Now you wake in a strange castle the fog cannot touch, with one goal: to find a way out.

EX-Tractus is a soulslike extraction game for up to four players. Raid the fog-choked ruins of a doomed land, fight for every scrap of loot, and claw your way back to safety before undead, the fog, or something much worse take what's yours.

Risk everything, extract alive

This is the heart of every raid: what you carry in, you lose when you die. There are no second chances and no safety nets in the field. Press your luck for more valuables, and you may never make it back. Extract, and everything you hauled out is yours to keep.

  • Soulslike combat - Deliberate, stamina-driven melee combat. Every action counts.

  • Pick up your bow for ranged precision, or master magic to bend the fight your way

  • You're just an ordinary survivor - Every ounce of power comes from the weapons, armor, and enchanted relics you pull from the Tractus

  • Only the most powerful items and most dangerous roads will save the world. Will you risk it all?

  • Find out what happened, and if anybody survived: You may not be alone. Or are you?

Better together

Drop in with up to three friends. Coordinate your styles: a shield to hold the line, a bow to thin the horde, magic to break an ambush, or scatter to cover more ground and gamble that everyone makes it to extraction. The fog rewards the bold and buries the greedy.

Build between raids

The unknown castle is your one refuge. Bank your hard-won loot in storage that survives death, then put it to work:

  • Recycle and Smelt raw ore and materials at the forge

  • Craft weapons, armor, and enchantments at the workbench

  • Cook food and brew potions, every little advantage can be the difference between the end or survival

  • Choose your stakes: Announce yourself to the fog before you depart; brighter flames draw deadlier threats and richer rewards

Descend deeper

Raid mountaintop cathedrals, abandoned temples, mist-shrouded lakesides, and the buried places beneath them. Unlock crypts, interiors, and boss arenas as you return at higher stakes, hunting the truth behind the fog and the necromancers who thrive in it.

Can you escape the Tractus?

The fog comes and goes without warning, and no one knows what waits at its heart. Gear up, raid hard, extract clean, and find your way out before the land claims you for good.
