| Skill Tree! (And some Shots of the Hub) | 2026-04-08 | Today we want to give you a brief look into the skill tree of Fatekeeper.We’d like to share a glimpse of both the tree itself and some of the skill nodes, as well as the ideas behind it. Our goal is to create a progression system that feels deep and flexible, and truly supports theorycrafting and creative builds.Players can progress in vastly different directions: From fully spellcasting-focused to devastating melee combat, to survivability-oriented and well-balanced builds, as well as more specialized paths such as builds purely focused on consumables. Below are a few examples:This build focuses on maximizing the use of “Shatter”, which allo |
| Fatekeeper Lore Part I: Solace and the Underdwellers | 2026-03-04 | The UnderdwellersLong before the surface knew their name, they turned their backs on the sky.Fleeing a tyrant they could not overthrow, a faction of an ancient people descended into the deep places of the world. Then the earth itself betrayed them. Mountains split. Oceans shifted. The path back was sealed.What began as exile became existence.For centuries, they carved out a civilization beneath the stone. Endless caverns lit by fire and luminescent crystals. Cities grown from rock and metal. They dug not only to survive, but to expand and explore, outward in all directions, mapping the underworld as if it were their rightful dominion.In time, |
| The Hub in Fatekeeper: Haven | 2026-02-02 | Much of your journey takes you far from home, into battlefields, ruins, and lands shaped by war. Still, the world is not without beauty. Forests breathe, stone remembers, and moments of quiet endure.Still, every journey needs a place to return to. Today, we want to offer a glimpse into a place that has stood for ages:Haven, home to every Sentinel of Solace for eons.This is where you arrive after long roads and harder choices. A space shaped by wood, stone, and living things, offering warmth and familiarity after time spent away. Not a refuge from the world, but a gentle counterweight to it.A place that welcomes you back.Here, life continues i |
| Fatekeeper – Weapons, Relics & Forgotten Arts | 2025-12-24 | Before the christmas break we wanted to give you an update about weapons, loot and other things that you can discover in the world of Fatekeeper: The world of Fatekeeper is layered with the remains of those who lived, fought, and vanished long before the player arrives. Scattered across forests, ruins, and forgotten paths are fragments of daily life, like broken tools, ritual objects, weathered weapons, alongside rare ingredients and artifacts still heavy with dormant power. Weapons and items are not just loot, but echoes of old traditions. Maces, clubs, daggers, swords, rings, and relics all carry distinct character, inviting players to disc |
| Eight Minutes of Mayhem: Fatekeeper Drops First Gameplay Video | 2025-11-20 | The mountains remember. High above the valleys, where the ruins of an ancient fortress crumble beneath drifting clouds, echoes of forgotten ages linger in the stone. Tread carefully. Shortlings lurk in the shadows, waiting for anyone bold enough to step into their domain, and rumor has it a warrior far more ruthless and powerful has also made camp within the ruins. After unveiling Fatekeeper during THQ Nordic's Showcase in August 2025, the development team Paraglacial, only 12 passionate people by the way, has forged ahead to reveal a deeper glimpse into the world they are crafting. Their newest showcase is an uncut eight-minute adventure tha |
| Creatures of Fatekeeper | 2025-10-22 | From twisted, mindless husks to disciplined soldiers, towering beasts, and wielders of arcane power - the enemy armies seem to be everywhere.But their conquest reaches further than steel and fire.The enemy’s influence seeps into the soil, twisting creatures of the wild into forms of rage and obedience.A lot of the beasts that once roamed freely now serve darker masters.Yet the world of Fatekeeper endures. Beneath the shadow of war, creatures still roam — wild, untamed, and alive. Some hunt, some flee, and some, against all odds, remain unbroken.For the druid, each step is a battle — not only against what destroys, but for what survives. Amid |
| World of Fatekeeper | 2025-08-08 | In Fatekeeper, the world isn’t just a backdrop — it’s one of the main characters.From dark, tangled forests and wind-scoured mountain ridges to vast, forgotten underground cities that once teemed with life, the player will journey through a wide variety of places — each with its own tone, history, and sense of purpose.When we paint these concepts, we’re not just designing what things look like — we’re trying to capture what they feel like to walk through. What it means to arrive in a place. The silence it holds, or the weight it carries.Here’s a glimpse into that world — early visual explorations that help us find the mood and identity of eac |
