About This Game

HUMANITY HAS LOST THE CLANKER WAR.

The clanker hordes have overrun the world and humanity is running out of places to hide.

The last hope lies with an unlikely ally: a mysterious crystal capable of granting ordinary survivors fantastical powers. It can command troops, empower defenses, and when its chosen hero falls, it can refract them back into the fight.

PUSH BACK THE HORDE

Refracted is a third-person roguelike action shooter built around a battle for momentum. Cut through waves of clankers, fight alongside crystal troops, strengthen your defenses, and push deeper into enemy territory.

Your objective is more than survival. Break through the clanker forces and destroy their towers anchoring their assault. The longer and further you push, the more deadly the clanker horde becomes.

TEAM UP WITH FRIENDS

Team up with up to 3 friends in online or LAN co-op. Unlock heroes with unique playstyles and abilities to push back the clanker forces.  

BUILD YOUR POWER ON THREE FRONTS

Every battle gives you new ways to turn the tide.

• Empower your hero with upgrades that reshape your weapons, abilities, and combat style.

• Strengthen your troops and turn a fragile advance into an unstoppable army.

• Empower your turrets to hold ground and tear through the encroaching horde.

Focus everything on your hero, build an overwhelming crystal army, fortify the battlefield—or create a combination that makes the entire war machine work together.

FACE AN EVOLVING MACHINE ARMY

The clankers will not fall quietly. Specialized enemies and dangerous elites force you to adapt on the move, while massive bosses stand between you and the clanker fortress.

The farther you push, the more dangerous the battlefield becomes.
