About Empyreal

✦ AI summary

Empyreal is an action RPG where you explore a colossal alien Monolith as an elite mercenary, mastering skill-based combat with three weapon archetypes while uncovering the secrets of a lost civilization. Its standout Cartogram system procedurally transforms each level's enemies, loot, and challenges, combined with deep character customization, branching NPC questlines, and asynchronous multiplayer features that let you share powerful items with other players.

Empyreal is a complex, challenging, feature-rich action RPG.In a far-flung corner of the galaxy an Expedition arrives on a hitherto unexplored planet to find a colossal Monolith built by a lost civilisation.These are no mere ruins: the Monolith is filled with danger, and the Expedition is ill-equipped to unearth the secrets within.All eyes turn towards an elite mercenary who may succeed where others have failed.Venture inside the Monolith and face the automatons that yet remain, remnants of the impossibly ancient civilisation that built this unknowable structure. Survive and uncover revelations that transform our understanding of humanity itself.

Gameplay & Combat:

  • Choose one of three weapon archetypes: The Glaive, The Mace & Shield or the Cannon. Each weapon has its own core move set giving each their own unique playstyle.
  • Empyreal features a unique blend of RPG Systems and Skill-based Combat. Master the flow of combat with perfectly timed attacks, deflects, parries and even many Abilities that gain additional effects when perfectly timed.
Find powerful new Equipment, adjust your stats via an extensive modification system and refine your build to perfection.

Abilities System:

  • Empyreal features dozens of Abilities with a huge variety of effects including dealing damage, providing defence or healing, extra movement options and other utility.
  • Find new Abilities as you progress through the game, many of the most powerful are well-hidden or locked behind lengthy Quests.

Extensive character customisations.

  • Experiment with a multitude of Character Creation options or choose one of the 30 presets to jump straight into the action with.
  • Choose your character’s background giving you a unique backstory and starting set of equipment. You will also occasionally have the chance to respond with special dialogue options which are specific to your background.

NPC Character Questlines:

  •  Each member of the expedition has their own personal questline. All of these questlines have multiple endings depending on your choices. It is even possible to fail them entirely…
  • Paying close attention to your fellow expedition members will eventually grant powerful rewards but only if you stay the course.

Cartograms:

  • One of the most important and unique features in the game. These ancient artifacts are blueprints for aspects you encounter in each level inside the Monolith.
  • What enemies you face, what loot you find, how many lives you get, what elements you need a matching resistance to (and more) are all randomly generated. There are many ways each level is different depending on the attributes of the cartogram you use to access it.
  • The levels themselves are all designed by hand, and you are rewarded for exploring; so find hidden details, shortcuts and seek out the secrets within. 

Boss Battles:

  • Each Cartogram contains an end boss. The selected Cartogram defines the loot table of the boss, and the chance of a drop. Epic boss battles enable you to target items you may need for future cartograms. 

Sharing & Trading:

  • Items including Cartograms can be shared with other players via a Mail system and a Trading Post.

Asynchronous Features:

  • Although a single player game, Empyreal has a number of asynchronous features allowing you to feel the presence of other players inside the Monolith. One of these features is ‘Into the Aether’ allowing you to gift an item through a tear in the aether to another player, where it becomes “Aether Touched” and gains a significant stat boost.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Empyreal is a loot-based sci-fi dungeon crawler with strong character customization, fluid combat animations, and visually appealing environments that players praise for its unique premise. However, reviews are divided on execution, with common complaints about janky movement, uninspired level design, bland UI, repetitive loot progression, and poor optimization issues that frustrate some players. Most suggest trying it only during a significant sale or after carefully considering whether the core loop appeals to you, as the game doesn't maintain its initial promise throughout.

Empyreal - 100% Completion Review Score: 7.5/10 Empyreal is a loot based game about exploring a giant and mysterious alien structure on another world and finding out it's secrets, after fully completing this game i'll give some Pro's, Neutrals and Con's. PRO'S: -Has character creation, male/female, body, hair, colors etc. -Has multiple different starter classes to choose from but nothing is permanent you can change anything by simply equipping different gear -As this is a loot based game there is tons of gear, armor, weapons and loot to find and stats for each can be changed with stat changing spheres in game -Good combat with lots of different weapons to choose from and abilities you can use and craft -Good animations, stylish moves and jumping and dodging -Good environments, -Fully voice acted -Good characters that are well designed and written -When repeating a level a different boss can appear each time which help with making repeats a little less repetitive -Treasure's that can still be used for crafting won't be auto-sold with the quick sell feature which is really useful -Can help other players by gifting apparitions revival items or by sending a random item through the p…

This is certainly a game. Is it a bad game? No, not really. Is it a good game? Also, no. I really, really wish that there was a "mixed" review option rather than just the recommend or not recommend. Overall, I will say that if you can pick this up on a steep discount and don't go in without overly high expectations, you can get some enjoyment out of it. The first few hours were actually pretty fun. Unfortunately, it doesn't remain so. On the positive side of things: it has nice looking graphics with a pretty decent character creation system (appearance wise, not class wise. we'll talk about that in negatives). The various NPCs are remarkably fleshed out for how little they actually communicate with you. The map designs had a lot of hidden areas to discover and were often quite beautiful. And now the negatives. I'll break this down into further into categories. [u] Combat: [/u] This is a type of looter-shooter (like Borderlands or Diablo) where all your character progression is achieved via collecting randomized loot and creating a build based on that loot. You have three main playstyles: a tanky Shield and Mace build, a dodge-based glaive build, and a ranged cannon build. The pr…

A very ambitious yet very meh game in the end. I skipped all dialgoue and story because it was just not interesting at all. Where i was really excited was the gameplay. An rpg dungeon crawler with a sc-fi backdrop sounds amazing to me. I got through 3 bosses and multiple regular enemy encounters. The flaws are noticeable in the first regular enemy encouter. Movement is stiff, janky. Combat is either too fast or too slow and neither feels good or rewarding. Exploration nonexistent. Progression being tied to rng loot drops is bad enough but to also have the loot be so bland is another thing. UI and menus are bland, What i did like was how changing gear was visually shown on your character, animations in combat can be nice, performance was solid. There was clearly a lot of love put into this but as it stands it's very shallow.

O jogo não roda nem fodendo. Jogo mais mal otimizado que eu já tive o desprazer de comprar.
Recommended Apr 2, 2026
It has a great vibe: it is a looter action RPG. No map but the levels are not large. Graphics are clean but not basic. There's very little story -- it is almost 100% about the loot and upgrading your equipment at the armorer. Combat is fluid. There are bosses, which is for me is the only minor negative. If you dont complete the boss, you dont finish the level. Not sure why there are not more positive reviews for this game.
