FATEKEEPER is an upcoming first-person fantasy action RPG developed by Paraglacial and published by THQ Nordic, built on Unreal Engine 5 and designed to deliver a deep, atmospheric, choice-driven experience.

Set in a dark and corrupted fantasy world, players step into the role of an aged druid, navigating a land filled with forgotten ruins, ancient magic, and hidden secrets. Exploration plays a major role, with handcrafted environments that reward curiosity through environmental storytelling, inspectable relics, and meaningful world details.

⚔️ Gameplay & Combat: Combat in FATEKEEPER emphasizes physics-based melee and precise, skill-driven magic, encouraging tactical decision-making rather than mindless action. The game features a class-free progression system, allowing players to fully customize their build and playstyle based on the equipment, relics, and abilities they choose.

🧪 Progression & Systems: Loot plays a central role, with a deep equipment system centered around weapons, rings, and powerful relics. Alchemy and crafting are key pillars of progression, pushing players to experiment, adapt, and prepare for the dangers ahead rather than simply relying on raw strength.

🐀 A World with Personality: Adding a unique twist to the journey is a sassy talking rat companion, bringing both commentary and charm as you traverse a broken world filled with mystery, decay, and ancient power.

📅 Release Plans: FATEKEEPER is set to launch in Early Access on PC in 2026, with a console release planned for later.

In an interview with KindaFunnyVids, Aaron Paul confirmed he declined returning as Powerplex, explaining:

> “That show I'm such a fan of. I love it, but it was just way too gruelling on my psyche… it was a skin I didn't feel comfortable in. I didn't wanna do it anymore.”

A surprising reveal for fans of the series. 👀⚡
