Our take on Eve of Calamity
Rather than funneling players through a fixed quest sequence, this RPG lets them choose how to prepare for the final conflict. Its turn-based battles also avoid animation waits, while class switching gives character development a flexible structure.
What is Eve of Calamity?
Travel through the empire of Asterna and its surrounding islands as a new adventurer facing a threat once stopped by an adoptive father.
Develop characters by switching among over 20 classes and learning more than 150 active and passive skills. Recruit and get to know more than 15 companions, then choose how to prepare for the final battle through civil war events, arena fights, monster hunts, trading, or other activities. Quests and story events have no required order. Combat is turn-based, allowing decisions at the player's pace without long waits for animations. The included Forgotten Spire expansion adds a post-game story and dungeons, quests, bounties, 6 Ascended Classes, and more than 70 equipment pieces.
