The fallen are individual characters all with their own unique skill sets, combat styles, and rich history who share a single vessel. The relationships between characters also must be taken into effect as it greatly impacts gameplay. The Church of Death and Cult of Life are at odds with one another. Aligning opposing factions close to one another in the vessel will cause conflict, resulting in consequential combat effects. Alternatively, strong synergies with shared beliefs may offer combat buffs that can spell disaster for the ruthless boss awaiting steel and magic.
No matter the creed, the fallen must fight as one. Throughout combat, players will charge a sync meter shared across all the characters. When the opportune moment presents itself, dispel the sync meter and unleash a devastating Morphstrike with the combined power of the party. When faced with a menacing foe, a precisely executed Morphstrike can be the deciding factor between life and death.
Deathbound launches simultaneously on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam, GOG, and Epic Games Store in 2024. Those eager to experience binding may do so right now with a demo available on Steam. As players await the launch of Deathbound later this year, they can begin crafting an unbreakable synergy by wishlisting Deathbound on Steam and joining the official Deathbound Discord server.
