About
GODBREAKERS‘ headline feature is the “Godbreak” mechanic, which allows you to steal powers from your enemies and use those unique abilities against them—there are powers that allow you to tunnel underground and emerge underneath an enemy, charge up and unleash a powerful beam, launch yourself towards foes with giant jaws and plenty more for you to discover for yourself.
Explore six distinct biomes, from the swampy and poison-ridden Sabboath, to the colorful and eclectic Kar-Aja. Jump into these biomes by yourself or with up to three other players in cooperative play to engage in slick and responsive combat with fully cancelable actions and devastating chainable abilities. Find cool loot as you sharpen your playstyle on each thrilling run and deal with a host of memorable boss fights. These multi-phase bosses will confront you with evolving attack patterns and distinct personalities that will test reflexes and coordination.
