Fellowship Closed Playtest show even more promise than before

Another Fellowship Playtest is underway and we have new characters, skills, talents, items, maps, enemies and bosses. A lot of new stuff in this 4-player co-op multiplayer. Grab some of your friends and start grinding some better gear for harder challenges. Early Access on Steam for Fellowship is planned for October 16th, 2025 which means we need to keep ourselves busy for just over a month longer before we can farm gear on all characters.
Fellowship Characters and Difficulty Levels
This time around, we are graced with two tanks, six damage dealers and two healers for a total of ten characters.
- Helena is your standard toughness tank with a weapon and shield. Her difficulty is currently set to 1/5.
- Meiko is the second standard for tanks, dodging and buffing herself. This tanks difficulty is 5/5.
- Rime is a ranged damage dealer that uses frost and ice to blast her foes. The easy pick with only 1/5 difficulty.
- Tariq is a 4/5 difficulty melee damage dealer that fights with a big storm mace.
- Mara is the best-designed character graphically with two beautiful swords. A 1/5 difficulty melee damage dealer.
- Elarion is a celestial ranger with only 1/5 difficulty, shooting his opponents from afar.
- Ardeos is another 1/5 difficulty damage dealer who controls fire from ranged to burn enemies into ash.
- Sylvie is the harder to play healer which uses over time and fey to keep others alive. 3/5 difficulty for this healer.
- Vigor is the 1/5 difficulty healer that brings the standard direct and area healing, as well as shields.
Fellowship Maps, Adventures, and Dungeons
In the current Fellowship Closed Playtest, several Adventure and Dungeon maps are available. Differences in enemies, environmental effects and of course, bosses! Each boss comes with unique abilities, all of which are properly telegraphed. That the damage dealers never have the excuse that they did not see it. Right now there are eight adventures and four dungeons.
Adventure Maps and Bosses
- Wyrmheat is an icy Mountain where you will fight frost elves and their magistrate boss.
- Stormwatch is a stronghold on a cliff, tormented by storms. An Orc warlord will be your enemy here.
- In Sailor's Abyss, you will fight a Sea Witch in a dark chasm.
- The dunes of the Empyrean Sands stir a sun blasted expanse. An ancient celestial needs to be confronted here.
- Within the jungle biome of the Urrak Markets you will fight Orcs and their slaves until you are forced to defeat a demon god.
- The ancient sanctuary of the Everdawn Grove leads you to fight beastmen and their nasty forest god, with the help of a guardian stag.
- The Nezari prepare for war beneath the jagged peaks of a mountain. Here in Godfall Quarry you will need to stop them.
- Merchants supplying the Stronghold have gone missing due to Goblins, that are the hosts of Spider eggs. Defeat both before it is too late.
Raid Maps and Bosses
- In Cithrel's Fall you are fighting frost Elves again to try and prevent a god from being used as a weapon against the rest of the world.
- Led by a dark Prophet, Orc are using an ancient and powerful weapon called Demonbrand. The heart of corruption is beating again, and you are tasked to stop it.
- Pirates have overrun the island on which the holy Wraithtide Vault is located. Prevent them from unleashing a demon's power back onto the world.
- A once peaceful harbor shared by Elves and Humans, is now a sacrificial altar to a sea god. Dark omens need to be defeated in Ransack of Drakheim or all the lands are in danger.
Fellowship Gear and Stats Explained
Of course gear plays a vital part in the game. Stats give you the ability to choose your play style. Where Haste makes you quicker, Expertise makes you stronger. Crit of course enhances your abilities, on a chance and Spirit regenerates resources, as well as your ultimate ability quicker. But gear can add a lot more. Three slots (Weapon and both Trinkets) even give you abilities. Some items grant group-wide defenses, reducing incoming damage by a large percentage for a few seconds. Or maybe you find a healing potion of some sorts that lets you heal a percentage of your total health on a few minutes cooldown.
Although gear needs to be grinded from Dungeons, and then upgraded with gold, which you get from scrapping gear you do not want (or your old gear). For those unlucky there is also the ability to buy gear from an equipment vendor. Although this is a nice back up, the gear from vendor can not be upgraded so it is really only a last resort.
