About Coreborn: Nations of the Ultracore
Immerse yourself in an engrossing journey full of charm, hope, challenges, and adventures. Visit Tormentosia, a once vibrant land suddenly covered by Sorgoth’s shadow of darkness. Join the united nations of the Core in reclaiming the land. Restore and rebuild towns and settlements. Face hordes of Gothkin. Meet new friends and cooperate with your companions. Survive and thrive together to make a better future.
Coreborn evolves the Survival-Sandbox genre with its focus on social gameplay, no PvP and systems that help make every encounter with another player a positive experience. While the Open-World of Tormentosia is where the game focuses on cooperative gameplay, the Social Hub, Coreheim, will add MMO elements and allow players to connect with the game’s entire population. Coreborn will constantly evolve the world of Tormentosia with Seasons and mini game-esque modes called Adventures.
Coreborn alpha features:
- Reclaim the most vivid lands of Tormentosia, the Nation of Ambros. Hunt down unique creatures, gather resources and gear up your character to explore the handcrafted open-world map of more than 14 km² in size.
- Rebuild the once lost lands by claiming your piece and establishing a town. Invite other players to your outpost, level up crafting stations, and protect your town against the Gothkin, Sorgoth’s relentless minions.
- Unite in Coreheim, the newly established capital that was created around the “Ultracore,” a giant shield generator that protects Tormentosia from Sorgoth’s wrath. Visit the social hub to meet the game’s entire population, make friends and trade your most valuable goods.
- Survive your first voyage to Tormentosia by strengthening yourself, inviting other players into your town, and battling Sorgoth’s armies.
