Buy The Banner Saga Deluxe PC key

The Banner Saga is a role-playing game set in a fantasy realm inspired by Norse mythology. You lead a caravan across a vast frozen landscape, build alliances and choose who will fight a new threat to an entire civilization. Decisions made during travel, conversations and combat shape the story and its outcome; not everyone will survive, but those who do not will be remembered.

The journey

Managing the caravan is essential to its survival and to the survival of the civilization it carries. As you travel, you decide how to respond to events and whom to take with you, with choices having lasting effects on your journey.

Characters and combat

More than 25 playable characters belong to two races: humans and varl, the horned giants. They come from seven classes, each with unique abilities and upgrade options. Combat is strategic, and victory, defeat and even the permanent loss of a character depend on whom you bring into battle and the decisions you make afterward.

Multiplayer combat

The free multiplayer game Factions lets you compete against other players using many of the character classes found in The Banner Saga.

Art and music

The game presents its fantasy world through hand-drawn combat sequences and animations, accompanied by a score from Grammy-nominated composer Austin Wintory.

Continuing story

The Banner Saga is the first part of a planned trilogy. Completing the game carries your unique progress and storyline into the next part of the story.
