Ember Knights

Ember Knights is a fast-paced action rogue-lite for solo play or co-op with up to four players. You play as one of the last Ember Knights, warriors sent to restore the Ember Tree after the mad sorcerer Praxis drains its life and escapes through the four Prime Worlds, spreading corruption. Fight through combat rooms, defeat Praxis’s forces and bosses, free the decaying worlds and restore energy to the tree.

Combat and builds

Chain attacks, time your swings and use your pace and dodges to outsmart, counter and stun enemies. The Ember Knights wield powerful weapons, each with its own modification system. Across runs, you can combine weapons, skills and relics to shape your build, upgrade the Ember Tree and learn from defeat.

There are 7 weapons with 9 modifications each, 20 skills and well over 100 relics. Builds can include a scythe wielder who spreads fire, a damage-resistant spellcaster or a poison-spreading archer with summons.

Enemies and bosses

You face over 60 unique monsters and variations, including beasts, specters, sorcerers and mechanized amphibians. Each has its own attacks and behavior. Elites and Champions are more resistant and dangerous versions of Praxis’s devoted minions, requiring you to adapt to each encounter.

Praxis also sends epic bosses and corrupted variations, including the Royal Phalanx and the Plague Bringer.

Solo and co-op

You can play alone or with up to three other players. In co-op, coordinate your playstyles to set up combos and synergies.

Game modes and pets

The game includes three additional modes and two pets:

• Daily Dungeon: a daily dungeon challenge.
• Boss Rush: a mode focused on boss fights.
• Chaos Run: a mode built around chaotic runs.
• Ember Dog and Ember Cat: two pets.
