Time to Descend Into the Sunken Realms
After six years of development, Sunken Realms has finally opened the gates to Aedaria. Magic Puncher Games’ ARPG dungeon crawler is now available on Steam for $16.99 / £13.99 / €16.99, with players getting a 10% launch discount during its first two weeks.
The game has already built plenty of anticipation, surpassing 45,000 wishlists before launch. Players who want to get a taste of the adventure can also try the demo, which remains available until September 21.
Sunken Realms puts players in the role of Alric, an adventurer who ventures into the cursed underground city of Aedaria while searching for answers about his father. The city has remained in darkness for decades, and those brave, or reckless, enough to enter will have to fight their way through its dangerous ruins.
The dungeon features 109 handcrafted rooms across six distinct areas, with their layouts procedurally rearranged each time players enter. Along the way, players can use melee and ranged weapons, unlock powerful spells, collect valuable loot, and gather materials from defeated enemies and treasure chests.
Surviving each run also means knowing when to head back to camp. Players can craft weapons and armor, cook meals, brew potions, trade resources, and upgrade their character through the Soul Forge before heading back underground at a greater difficulty.
Inspired by games such as Outward, Hades, and The Legend of Zelda, Sunken Realms combines exploration, combat, progression, and storytelling into one compact adventure.
After six years of work, Aedaria is finally ready to be explored. The only question now is how far players are willing to descend.
