SHORT DESCRIPTION
Aethergate: Battle of Artefacts is a session-based Extraction Roguelite. Enter unstable "Fractures," form specialized squads or drop in as a solo Rogue, farm stat-boosting crops, and hunt for ancient Artefacts. Raid rival bases and extract before the world collapses. No offline raids. Pure skill. 100% Adrenaline.
ABOUT THIS GAME
THE YEAR IS 2050. A failed experiment known as The Aether Surge has shattered reality. The world is now divided into unstable dimensions called Fractures—zones of high reward and lethal danger.
You are an Aetherial, a mercenary tasked with entering these collapsing worlds to secure the only currency that matters: Artefacts.
Aethergate evolves the survival genre by compressing the experience into high-stakes, 1-to-2-hour sessions. Scavenge, farm, build, automate, and extract. What you keep is yours. What you lose is gone forever.
KEY FEATURES
SESSION-BASED EXTRACTION: Forget the 100-hour grind. Every Fracture is a fresh start. Drop in at Level 1, gather resources, and race against the clock. The goal isn't just to survive—it's to seize supernatural Artefacts and extract before the zone destabilizes.
SQUAD SYNERGY OR SOLO CHAOS: Abandon the "jack-of-all-trades" trope. Squads that divide into highly specialized roles—like Farmers, Builders, Scavengers, and Scouts—will dominate the economy. Prefer to work alone? Drop in as a factionless Rogue Aetherial with no base and no rules, surviving entirely by raiding established facilities.
HARVEST TO SURVIVE: Character progression inside a match is tied to agriculture. Plant and harvest a massive ecosystem of crops to gain permanent in-match stat buffs. Eat potatoes for Armor or Cauliflower for Magic Regen—but if you die, you lose it all.
FACTION INFILTRATION: Joining a faction grants your team a base equipped with an exclusive, stat-boosting Faction Berry bush. Want a buff your faction doesn't have? Execute stealth missions across the map to infiltrate rival bases and steal their unique berries—or play as a Rogue and steal from everyone.
️ NO OFFLINE RAIDS: We believe your loot should be lost in combat, not while you sleep. Your account progression in the single-player Hub is permanent and safe. When you log off, your anxiety doesn't have to stay on.
TACTICAL COMBAT & ARTEFACTS: Engage in visceral FPS combat with limb-damage systems. Secure game-changing Artefacts to unlock supernatural abilities—like teleportation, invisibility, or flight—to outplay rival squads and AI guardians at the final Extraction chokepoint.
