Symbolically, our fifth year of development brings an expansion, and with it, a fifth ending.
Expansion Story
In the original game, the old gods remained fractured, without a unified path. The expansion seeks to change that. Our main goal was to create a narrative where the old gods stand united, and we've built an entirely new questline to make it happen.
At the heart of this story is Stribog, the god of wind. His mission is monumental: to unite the old gods, rebuild the shattered Pantheon of Oak, and mount a true challenge against the new one-God.
Will he succeed? That’s up to you.
Expansion Celestial Battles
To reflect the expansion’s bold themes, we’ve reimagined the boss fights.
Players will now face celestial foes: actual angels.
Prepare to battle three epic bosses inspired by biblical lore: Seraphim, Thrones, and Cherubim.
Developer side note: We understand that introducing biblical beings into our stories may not resonate with everyone. However, we want to emphasize that this is a fantasy game. Borrowing themes from religious mythology allows us to explore deeper ideas within the narrative, something we've done since the beginning of Svarog's Dream.
With that being said, let's return to gameplay.
As with the core game, our boss fights aim to deliver epic, unforgettable moments.
Each major enemy features a unique musical theme, with their actions synchronized to the audio theme. Here's a sneak peek:

In addition to the main story bosses, the expansion includes optional side bosses, demigods waiting to challenge you. Their stories and battles are left for you to discover.
Becoming a Demigod
In a recent preview, a player asked if it was possible to become a demigod. Initially, we hadn't planned for it, but the idea struck a chord with us. So, we made it happen.
Yes, you can now ascend to become a demigod, though exactly how remains for you to uncover.
This expansion is not just our creation, it’s a product of the incredible ideas, feedback, and support from you, the players. Many of the features you’ll experience came directly from your suggestions.
Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping us bring this world to life. We can’t wait for you to explore what we’ve built.
The expansion launches in just 2 days, on January 9th!
To celebrate, we’ve prepared a special event. See you in two days when we reveal it!
