Key Features
-
Expansive open-world exploration
Travel through deserts, forests, ruins, and cities in a seamless world without loading screens. Use your upgraded jetpack to glide across terrain, scale buildings, or dive into hidden areas with full vertical freedom. -
Deep faction alignment system
Choose to join one of several powerful factions, each with its own beliefs, gear, and storyline. Your alliances and actions determine world events, relationships, and access to quests or regions. -
Combat with ranged, melee, and special powers
Battle enemies using swords, guns, bows, or psychic abilities. Combat is stamina-based, with emphasis on timing, positioning, and effective resource use. -
Consequential choices and persistent world
NPCs remember your behavior—helping or betraying characters influences future events. Questlines can change drastically based on your approach, and some actions close off story paths permanently. -
Narrative centered around survival and redemption
As Jax, you must not only warn the world of an impending alien invasion but also search for your missing son and rebuild fractured alliances—all while fighting off internal corruption and mistrust. -
Jetpack-driven vertical traversal
Use your jetpack for enhanced exploration, combat tactics, and escape. Fly over obstacles, flank enemies from above, or reach secret areas high above the terrain. -
Customization and character progression
Upgrade attributes, unlock new skills, craft items, and specialize your build to suit different combat roles—from heavy fighter to agile sniper or tech-based caster. -
Post-apocalyptic aesthetic with sci-fi-fantasy fusion
The world of Magalan blends medieval ruins, high-tech strongholds, and alien landscapes—creating a distinct atmosphere of decay and wonder.
