With War on the Horizon, What will be the Legacy of Gravehold?

by Ryan Schoon

Legacy of Gravehold, the follow-up to the hit game Aeon’s End Legacy that raised over a half-million dollars on Kickstarter, is coming to retail stores!

The original Aeon’s End Legacy introduced many new players to the Aeon’s End world by serving as a great starting point. Set after the events of the original, Legacy of Gravehold carries on the tradition of Aeon’s End Legacy with an all-new narrative, in which a fresh cast of characters explores exciting unfamiliar locations in a conflicted world. The world of Aeon’s End has changed. Internal and external conflicts rage, mage turns against mage, civil war threatens the land, and the Nameless stalk the world.

Legacy of Gravehold offers a narrative deeper than has ever been seen before, with branching paths and a campaign story that changes based on decisions made by the players. Characters grow and evolve over time, gain experience in battle, and earn enhancement stickers that increase their abilities. But the Nemeses the players have to face are also growing stronger. To take on the challenges that await them at the end of the game, players will have to make clever use of their enhancements in an everchanging market.

With more than twice as many mages to choose from and Nemeses to battle as the original, Legacy of Gravehold is the most extensive Aeon’s End experience yet – and as always, they can be mixed and matched with the ones you already own!

Everything you’ve experienced in this world has led to this moment. Customize your character to your own style of play. Forge new relationships, interact with old friends and former enemies, and control the way the final battles play out in the epic conclusion to the story of Aeon’s End.

All this and more awaits within Legacy of Gravehold.
