The highly anticipated dark fantasy strategy game, Gord, is set to launch this summer on Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Developed by Covenant.dev, Gord features a lore-rich campaign that takes players through a world of primordial beings, horrifying beasts, and powerful incantations. Players will lead the Tribe of the Dawn, where they must protect their community from invaders and monstrous beasts while expanding their settlements and embarking on life-threatening quests.

Gord's gameplay trailer showcases the game's mature dark fantasy adventure and unique sanity system. The sanity system keeps a close eye on the townsfolk's well-being, with everything from hunger to the death of kin devastatingly impacting their lives. Players must also nurture their citizens' faith and train them for battle while overseeing their hunger, disease, and trauma.

Gord also features hand-crafted quests that will take players deep into the wilderness to hunt legendary creatures, uncover ancient secrets, and vanquish deadly scourges. Players can unlock a variety of offensive and defensive spells to tip combat in their favor, each with custom animations and potentially gruesome results. Additionally, Gord includes a custom scenarios mode with procedurally generated maps, allowing players to create their own challenges or dive into endless maps to test their skills and strategy.

Gord will be available on Steam, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S. Players can visit the game's Steam page to wishlist it and stay up-to-date on the latest news and developments.
