Add-Ons
On Wednesday 26th August at 12:00 AM (Midnight) Local Time the price for the Relic will drop by around 33%. We wanted to make sure you were aware of this. If you do purchase before this time, as a thank you for buying at full price you will receive two Sealing Stones which permanently unlocks two unique dungeons featuring exclusive boss fights and special loot. To claim these Sealing Stones for free you must download Patch 13 (available Wednesday 19th August) and collect them from the chest at "The Gap of a Long-Standing Oath" before the price drop on Wednesday 26th August at 12:00 AM Local Time. The window to claim this content for free permanently closes when the price drops. The content will be made available at a later date for purchase, for those who are not eligible for this reward.
Since its launch, Project Cloud Games have been working round the clock to improve the game, with the current focus fully on fixing technical issues and performance. We have already released twelve patches, but we are not stopping there. The next patch is being worked on. You have our time, dedication, determination, and word that we will continue to do everything in our power to be worthy of your support.
"The Relic: First Guardian tells an epic story through stunning visuals, spread across a vast fantasy RPG landscape." - Screenrant
"It has a unique art style and combat that looks spectacular" - Dualshockers
"An ambitious action RPG that takes its share of chances rather than just sticking to the status quo" - GameRant
Fast Paced Brutal Combat
The Relic approaches combat differently - delivering freedom in attack, intensity in survival. Unleash an unstoppable onslaught with attacks that cost zero resources, allowing you to strike continuously with relentless creativity and consistency. Your stamina gauge is reserved strictly for high-stakes defence like dodging and blocking, while high-power magic operates on cooldowns and a dedicated meter. Attack without limits, defend with absolute precision.
Explore a Shattered, Semi-Open World
Traverse a vast, interconnected realm filled with forgotten ruins, hidden dungeons, and atmospheric landscapes. The world of Arsilthus rewards curious Guardians who venture off the beaten path with ancient artifacts, secret encounters, and pieces of lost lore buried deep within its ruined regions.
Confront Up to 80 Tragic Bosses
Step into battle against up to 80 mythic encounters - each a dark, standalone folktale brought to life, bound to a tragic lore that can only be laid to rest through ultimate victory. Adapt or perish: no two legends fight alike, and a strategy that slays one nightmare offers no guarantee of surviving the next.
Weapons Woven with Narrative
Command five distinct weapon masteries: Sword & Shield, Battle Staff, Daggers, Two-Handed Weapons, or the Longsword. Without a single duplicate weapon to be found - every single item is a bespoke, one-of-a-kind creation with its own tragic history. Discovering a new blade means uncovering a piece of the world's past, transforming your arsenal into a personal collection of living legends.
Master Ancient Weapon Skill Trees
Forge a deeper bond with your chosen armoury through specialised skill trees powered by relic energy. Channel forgotten power into game-changing passives alongside awe-striking, visually spectacular ultimate abilities.
Unbound Build Freedom
Forget traditional levelling - your power is forged entirely through the gear and Relics you discover. Collecting and equipping relics is as much about augmenting your character as it is about uncovering the world's past. With over 70 unique passive effects scattered that alter combat tempo and skill, the relic system encourages you to experiment endlessly.
