Zotenhold

Zotenhold is a wave-based defense game set after the Mavalkin have taken the hold. You and up to 10 players defend its last walls against increasingly large waves, with each player taking a role in the fight. You can also face the horde alone, which grows to meet you.

Defend the walls

Enemies have different threats to manage. Brutes crush the players they mark, while healers raise fallen members of the horde, so you need to interrupt their casts. Bombers charge the defensive line and explode, making them a priority to stop. Boss waves test how well the team fights together. If you fall in battle, an ally must stand over you to revive you.

Choose a class

Zotenhold has 25 classes: Knight, Paladin, Warrior, Berserker, Frostguard, Captain, Monk, Rogue, Ranger, Hunter, Beastmaster, Mage, Necromancer, Summoner, Sunweaver, Shaman, Druid, Cleric, Alchemist, Gardener, Cook, Farmer, Chef, Artificer and Beekeeper. Each class has its own abilities and a skill tree with three unique paths, and your points are limited. Some classes unlock as you play; Farmer, Chef and Artificer come with The Artisans.

The Beekeeper is a support caster whose bees free an ally’s next cooldown, while its hives sting the horde from range. In combat, tanks hold the horde’s attention, healers keep the line alive, and damage dealers attack enemies held by the tank. You can also read enemy casts and interrupt them before they land.

Earn Renown

Each wave you survive earns Renown. You can spend it on power that carries into every battle and claim titles that record what you have survived.

Equip your company

Your arsenal ranges from common steel to legendary relics, including set pieces and items that change how your abilities fight. For each prize, roll Need, Greed or Pass.

Play together or alone

Gather a company and host a lobby, join one through Steam, or take on the horde solo. The game supports mouse and keyboard and full controller play.
