Immortals of Aveum is a single-player magic shooter from the developer team at Ascendant Studios with veterans, who're ambitious enough taking the FPS genre in a new direction. They were part of the dev team for Call of Duty, Halo and Borderlands. Now, they're switching out military weapons for spells and a magical, supernatural and yet dangerous world.
You slip into the role of Jak, an Unforeseen whose magical abilities unexpectedly manifests in the later years of life. With your newfound powers, joining the neutral elite order of Immortals seems the best course of action. You must uncover the mysteries of a story-driven, troubled past and end the Everwar.
Immortals of Aveum: A Magical Story About A Troublesome Past
Jak grew up poor and powerless on the streets of Seren. He didn't expect it, but he suddenly discovered he had magical abilities. Now he's caught up in a never-ending war for control over magic.
Rasharn, one of the strongest kingdoms in Aveum, has pushed Lucium and its allies to their limits. The Everwar has magic-wielders and soldiers on both sides, and Jak and his elite group of Immortals need to uncover Aveum's troubled history if they want to save its future.
Gameplay Features In Immortals of Aveum
- Magic is a precious resource that keeps the world going and it exists in three different Forms (Force, Chaos, Life). Normally everyone is specialized in either one of them, but as Jak you have the rare ability of wielding all of them at the same time.
