“有些灰暗的画风加上类魂类的元素还能组成什么游戏呢?Ashen是其中之一。模仿黑魂的游戏有很多,Ashen可算是其中游戏性和创新力都靠前排的一款类魂游戏了。它依然拥有着黑魂的高难度和近似于黑魂的UI及体力系统。但也在魂类游戏动作薄弱的基础上增加了很多连贯的攻击手段。对老玩家来讲Ashen仍然可以作为一款类魂休闲游戏,在有着富裕时间之余进行一番新鲜的体验也是不错的选择——漠若雪呐”

Reviews

“The relationships you forge define your adventure through Ashen, and helping your new friends is a powerful motivator that drives you forward through the game's beautiful world.”
9/10 – Gamespot

“Its passive co-op features offer new insights into the genre, and the variety of its beautiful world is an absolute joy.”
8.5/10 – PC Gamer

“Ashen takes liberally from Dark Souls when it comes to combat and progression, but it’s a very good take on the formula that delivers satisfying, strategic combat and progression that rewards careful play. Thanks to a gorgeous, varied open world and neat, passive cooperative features, Ashen comes into its own wonderfully.”
8.5/10 – IGN

About This Game

Ashen is an open world co-op action RPG about a wanderer in search of a place to call home.

Passive Co-Op Multiplayer
As you adventure through Ashen, you'll occasionally encounter other players in a massive open world, akin to the passive multiplayer of Journey. It's up to you to decide how to deal with them - fight together against evil, invite them into your party or simply ignore them.



Souls with a Twist
Ashen is faithful to the "souls" genre of stamina-based combat, introducing players to a punishing yet satisfyingly vast world. But here’s the twist - no two gameplay experiences are alike. Whether you’re exploring bogs, investigating a fjord or pillaging an old palace, where you are at any given moment will dramatically alter the course of your adventure. It's a brutal open world; you're just living in it.



Creatures + Combat
Ashen has no shortage of dangerous encounters, from hostile enemies to indigenous creatures. You'll be rewarded for studying the environment and its inhabitants, planning your adventure rather than flying by the seat of your pants. The flora and fauna within the world aren't just fantastical; they're often fatal. Each confrontation, no matter how trivial, has potentially dire consequences.



Crafting is Key
As you discover survivors, you'll have the choice to invite them to your Town. But these aren't mere adventurers - they're potential collaborators, bringing a plethora of crafting skills, from blacksmithing to foraging expertise, in tow.



Story + Score
Famed fantasy author Mark Lawrence (The Broken Empire trilogy) and renowned band Foreign Fields collaborated closely with the development team at A44 to craft a cohesive and unique narrative and sound.
