An endless night has fallen

You carry the last lantern.

Every level-up offers new weapons and relics. Max a weapon, find its relic and open a chest to Awaken it. Fuse two Awakened weapons into something new, or Ascend your hero with their Sigil. Then do it all again, faster, on a harder night.

How a run works

Move. Choose. Become a storm.

  1. Survive

    Weapons fire on their own. You steer, dodge and pull the horde where you want it.

  2. Choose

    Every level-up deals new weapons and relics. Six weapon slots, six relic slots (a merchant's Satchel adds one of each), endless builds.

  3. Awaken

    Max a weapon, hold its relic, crack a chest: it Awakens. Fuse two Awakened weapons into one legend.

  4. Ascend

    Find your hero's Sigil and they take their final form, signature weapon and all.

Choose your bearer

Eight heroes. Eight final forms. And one more.

Tap a hero to see them Ascended.

???A secret Something waits for those who stand still.

Topple the tyrants

Eight paths. Eight things in the dark.

Every path is its own night with its own ground: open fields with hazards, a causeway, islands, bone halls and a climb. Each has its own monsters and two mini-bosses you won't meet anywhere else, and a boss waits at the end.

Path 1 • Whisperwood

The Rotwood

A haunted wood with bog pools that slow everything down, and something old rooted at its heart.

Path 2 • Sunken Crypt

Vael, the Drowned Lich

Flooded halls full of the restless dead. Vael rises from the deep to finish the job.

Path 3 • Ember Peaks

Ashmaw the Infernal

Lava rivers burn heroes and monsters alike: lure the horde in. Then Ashmaw descends.

Path 4 • Frostfang Tundra

Rimefang, the Frost Wyrm

Thin ice makes every turn a slide. Rimefang stirs beneath it.

Path 5 • Ashen Causeway

Cindral, the Magma Serpent

A stone road over a sea of embers, with hordes pouring in from both ends. Cindral bursts up out of the sea.

Path 6 • The Drowned Isles

Morwen, the Tide Witch

Islands joined by plank bridges over black water. Walkers hunt for the bridges; ghosts fly straight across.

Path 7 • Hollow Ossuary

Osseth, the Bone Drake

Halls of bone walls, doorways and dead ends. Walls stop enemy shots, so use them as cover.

Path 8 • Frostspire Climb

Hoarfrost, the Summit Ancient

A path that only goes up, with an avalanche fog climbing behind you. Keep moving.

Ways to play

One more night. Then another.

Online co-op for four

Host a room, share the code, and up to three friends drop in. Offline, AI companions fight at your side.

Expeditions

Open regions with side quests: light beacons, escort a child, break seals. Three quests open the Heart and its guardian.

Endless Night

No finish line. Survival time is the score, kept for solo and for every party size.

Long Night

Beat the boss, then stay the night. It only gets worse, and the boss keeps coming back.

Daily Night

One seeded run a day with two twists and the same kit for everyone.

Night events

A wandering merchant, a cursed shrine that pays if you survive its curse, a lantern vigil to hold while the horde closes in.

Bestiary

76 monsters and 24 bosses, each logged in your Journal the first time you meet it, with a line of lore.

Secrets

Every region hides its Chart, Sigils and a gilded cache off the beaten path. And there's one secret nobody will tell you.

Wardrobe

Lantern flames, trails and hero outfits to wear. Your friends see them in co-op too.
