About the Coda

"When the Veil falls, all that remains is to remember amidst the ashes."

Dual Narrative: The Return and the Embers

the Coda plunges you into a tragic mass extinction. A rampant plague and mysterious creatures have all but decimated an ancient Sanctum built deep within a snow-capped cavern. As this soul-tech-driven metropolis teeters on the brink of total collapse, you will witness the apocalypse unfold through two distinct yet intertwining storylines.

Raythen

As the sole survivor of the expeditionary force, you embark on a long-overdue journey home after years of recovering from grave wounds. The crucial Codex was brought back by your companion long ago. Now, you face a homeland utterly swallowed by the Catastrophe. You must tread carefully through the dead ruins, trace the footsteps of your fallen comrades, and witness the final fate of the Sanctum.Playing as Raythen, you will engage in highly strategic, hardcore action combat. Featuring a unique directional combo system, you must read your enemies' flaws and precisely plan your attack directions in the heat of battle. Unleash fatal combos and tear through enemy defenses in the razor-thin margin between life and death.

Kathy

As an overprotected royal descendant, you are thrust into a cruel, unforgiving world when your final sanctuary is torn apart by the Catastrophe. Lacking martial prowess, you must rely on your crossbow, environmental manipulation, and puzzle-solving to survive. Decipher the cryptic knowledge of your ancestors and attempt to halt the impending doom.Playing as Kathy, your primary objective is self-preservation. Faced with insurmountable threats that cannot be fought head-on, you must utilize the environment, limited crowd-control tactics, and spatial puzzles to evade your hunters. Intellect and composure are your only lifelines.

Explore a Soul-Driven, Abyssal Sanctum

Delve into an underground metropolis that seamlessly intertwines 15th-century medieval aesthetics with soul-powered machinery. From rusted ruins echoing with perpetual cavern rain to once-glorious religious halls, fragments of a profound history are scattered in every corner. Every step of your exploration pieces together the final elegy of a lost kingdom.
