Wolcen Studio today unveiled details on its previously named Project Pantheon, revealed as Gods, Death & Reapers at the Future Game Show during gamescom 2025. Currently in development for PC, Gods, Death & Reapers blends high-stakes Extraction gameplay with deep Hack-and-Slash mechanics.
Gods, Death & Reapers is a free-to-play ExtrAction RPG that throws players into a brutal afterlife where mythology is real, and the gods are gone. Starting in Norse Mythology, Death himself has chosen players to help restore balance to realms left in chaos.
The sanctuary is the players’ hidden base where they prepare their gear before entering dangerous battlegrounds. Every run is a gamble: outfight deadly enemies, survive PvPvE clashes and escape with loot. But the stakes are high: – death means losing everything players carried. Only successful extractions secure rewards, which can be traded with other players.
Beyond the Extraction mode, new ways to play are on the horizon! Wolcen plans to implement a new single-player story campaign and take on PvE co-op missions where players can share the risk and the spoils with a friend.
“Gamescom 2025 marks a huge milestone for us as we finally get to share Gods, Death & Reaper’s official name and gameplay with the world,” said Game Director Andrei Chirculete. “Gods, Death & Reapers is a game that started from one simple idea: what if you could play an extraction game that looks like a top-down ARPG? Now that this idea has turned into Gods, Death & Reapers, we can’t wait to hear from our players what they think, as it will help us shape up the best version throughout the coming Closed Alpha tests!”
Players can jump into the Closed Alpha playtest right now and wishlist Gods, Death & Reapers on Steam. Closed Alpha 3.1 has just kicked off and will be available to players in Southeast Asia, Korea, Taiwan, China, North America and Europe until August 24, 11 AM PDT.
