Perish

PERISH is a first-person action game for one to four players. You play as Amyetri, a corporeal spirit condemned to a shadow life in Purgatory, and seek to end your suffering by undertaking the Rites of Orpheus. Fight through the realm, defeat its chthonic deities and earn passage to Elysium, a place of cosmic revelations.

Journey through Purgatory

You begin with a broken sword and need danake, the underworld’s blood-soaked currency, to acquire better equipment and face the Dismal Lords blocking your path. Purgatory’s revenant creatures seek danake too. If you die, you lose the wealth you have acquired, so you can deposit it in the Pantheon before death or continue toward Elysium with the risk of losing it all.

The journey crosses the scorched cliffs of Theseus, the dilapidated temples of Orpheus and the volcanic foundries of Hephaestus. You navigate crumbling labyrinths, molten lakes of pure gold and shattered mountains caught in Charybdian whirlpools. The campaign also includes ancient shipwrecks and boss fights against colossal deities from ancient Greek mythology.

Fight and gear up

You battle enemies with distinct combat behaviors using ranged and melee weapons. The priestesses sell weapons as well as powerful crowns and rings that give their wearer advantages in battle. You can choose from more than 10 handcrafted javelins, swords, bows and guns, each with its own upgradeable offensive capabilities, and enhance your chosen weapon with augmentations.

As you travel farther through Purgatory, you encounter more unforgiving enemies inspired by Ancient Greek, Roman and Christian mythologies.

Play together

The online co-op campaign supports one to four players. You can bring up to three friends and use co-op-specific gear and gadgets to support, defend and revive one another on the way to Elysium.
