Endgame Focus
Grinding Gear Games has prioritized endgame content for the Early Access release to address a common issue with action RPG launches. Players can expect to spend significant time exploring the Atlas, a vast overworld map with random encounters, as well as engaging with endgame systems like Breaches and Rituals.
