A tide of darkness has swept across the lands of Aeloria, sewing seeds of discord in it's wake. Clans are locked in a battle for power and supremacy as the kingdoms wage war over the precious resource auralite, rare crystals that have been infused with the power of the Mägi.

Empyrios is a tactical strategy RPG set in the fantasy world of Aeloria. Ally with a faction and recruit your clan from among the eight major races that inhabit the realm. Each one of your soldiers can be fully customized, and they have powerful abilities distinct to their class.

Battle through the dynamic campaign from the perspective of either faction, with the story being different every time depending on your choices. Or you can take your army online to clash with enemies, vying to become the true champion. War is here. Are you ready?
