About This Demo

Whatever It Takes is a hardcore first-person Action RPG set within the Omnisphere: a colossal graveyard of titans and a prison for those too great to perish.

Once, you were the light of humanity—their guiding force and celestial sovereign. But betrayal came from those who once knelt before you. Now, you are Illazar, an exiled god stripped of name and power. Journey through the ruins of divine sanctums, absorb the essence of forgotten beings, and reclaim your throne. Whatever it takes.

Forget chaotic button-mashing. Here, every movement of your mouse dictates the direction of your strike or parry. In Whatever It Takes, combat is not a choice—it is the law of survival. Precision, rhythm, and focus are your only allies. One wrong move, and the enemy is already celebrating your downfall.

An enemy is not just a health bar; they are a living organism with reinforced defenses and hidden vulnerabilities. Your steel will not pierce heavy plate—you must strip enemies of their armor, break their fastenings, and strike precisely at their exposed wounds. Blind aggression leads to death; calculated brutality leads to victory.

The Omnisphere is a vertical labyrinth, and your harpoon is the ultimate tool for mastery. Soar to unreachable heights, lure enemies into deadly traps, or yank them out of formation. Weaponize the environment itself: turn height, gravity, and ruins into your most lethal assets.

Absorb the essences of fallen gods to reclaim your lost majesty. Bend time to your will, summon nightmares from the Abyss, or become an elusive wraith, passing through stone and steel alike. Every spark of stolen power brings you closer to triumph. Your abilities are not mere magic—they are your right to vengeance.

Every scrap found within the ruins can serve as the foundation for a potent elixir. Experiment with ingredients and rediscover forbidden formulas that can overturn the tide of any duel. Health potions are just the beginning; secret alchemical compositions capable of granting true divine supremacy still await their discoverer.

What awaits you in the Demo:

  • A Glimpse of Act I: Explore the first third of the game’s opening chapter and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the adventure.

  • First Encounter: Battle representatives of one of the 6 major races — the Goblins. Study the tactics of Warriors, Rogues, and Mages to survive.

  • Boss Battle: Put your skills to the ultimate test in the demo’s final confrontation.

  • Tactile Duels: Experience a melee combat system where every movement and weapon clash is physically felt.

  • Magic & Physics: Use spells not just for combat, but to interact with the environment — uncover hidden secrets and overcome physical obstacles.

  • Mystical Mechanics: Master the art of lockpicking and the power of telekinesis to unlock doors from a distance.

  • Progression System: Try out basic crafting directly in your inventory or use dedicated workstations to upgrade your gear.
