Achilles: Survivor, the Mythological Ancient Greek Bullet Heaven Enters Early Access January 29th

TORUŃ, POLAND, January 15, 2025 — Only four months after the initial announcement of their Ancient Greek Survivor-like, the team at Dark Point Games is pleased to announce that Achilles: Survivor, the next adventure in the Achilles franchise, will be launching into Steam Early Access later this month! Bullet heaven fans, history buffs, and everyone in between can enter the fray against hordes of enemies on January 29th. 

Return to the world of action RPG Achilles: Legends Untold, where you’ll face hordes of enemies as your power transcends from hero to god of destruction. Expand your arsenal with an innovative building mechanic that introduces a fresh strategic layer to the bullet heaven genre. Construct fiery defensive towers and healing structures, and summon allies to help you decimate your foes. These buildings offer not only protection, but also strategic advantages that can help turn the tide of battle. Play as multiple characters, each with unique combat abilities that reshape your approach to combat. As new characters are introduced over time, each brings exciting new ways to fight against relentless waves of enemies. Prepare your build, set up your defenses, and unleash god-like powers to survive powerful boss encounters and become the last one standing. Each run rewards you with treasures that enhance your abilities and unlock new content, including powerful abilities and new maps.

Explore iconic locations from the legend of Achilles, such as Troy, Greece, and the kingdom of Tartarus, all presented in the visual style beloved by fans of Achilles: Legends Untold. Uncover the secrets and dangers of these mystical realms as you battle legendary monsters and acquire powerful weapons and artifacts. Journey through breathtaking landscapes, from towering mountain passes to dark, treacherous dungeons, and face the unique challenges each adventure offers.

After the Trojan War, Hades, the god of death, resurrected Achilles to use in his schemes against the other gods. When Hades’ plans were fulfilled, he claimed Achilles' soul and cast him into the underworld—the kingdom of Tartarus. However, Achilles managed to break free from the realm of the dead, rescuing the souls of countless others, including many who had died by his own hand. Enraged by this defiance, Hades unleashed his legions to hunt down the escapees, vowing to capture them all. Step into the shoes of Achilles or one of the survivors freed from Tartarus, and engage in a desperate, high-stakes struggle for survival.
