About Gearbound: Shadows Of The Kingdom
The gates are broken. The legends have awakened.
In Mythics Unleashed, ancient heroes known as the Mythics return to a world on the brink of collapse. Once sealed away by the long-lost Wardens, these powerful champions must now rise again to stop The Veilbreaker and his armies of corruption from tearing the realms apart.
Step into the role of a new Warden and journey across a shattered world filled with forgotten ruins, cursed kingdoms, overgrown wilds, volcanic strongholds, sunken fortresses, and storm-torn skies. Along the way, you’ll discover and unlock powerful Mythics, each with their own combat style, elemental powers, personality, and traversal abilities.
Fight against the deadly forces of The Ruinbound — a brutal alliance of machine warlords, corrupted plant horrors, undead nobles, shadow assassins, abyssal raiders, and volcanic zealots — as you recover the lost Mythic Keys and uncover the truth behind the world’s greatest legend.
Master a growing roster of collectible heroes, unleash devastating powers, and forge a new bond between mortals and Mythics in a cinematic fantasy adventure where every champion changes how you fight and explore.
