Use your favourite features in-game with our Desktop AppThe upcoming dark-fantasy ARPG Emberville has a variety of different systems baked into the game that will help you as you rebuild the town, rescue the survivors and fend off hordes of mobs and bosses.
Created by the studio Cygnus Cross and CohhCarnage, Emberville takes traditional ARPG elements from games like Diablo and levelling systems from games like Terraria and Stardew Valley. In these games, players level up and grow stronger, which is another core gameplay aspect of Emberville.
Each Weapon in Emberville has its own dedicated section called Masteries, and you naturally progress and become stronger as you use each weapon class more frequently. You will naturally level up the more you use it, so you may see yourself being a high level using Swords or Bows but very low in other areas- it just depends on your current progress and personal playstyle.
We were fortunate enough to get our hands on an early version of Emberville, which had very limited gameplay. Many weapons weren't accessible within the first 1-2 hours of gameplay, so their skills and information are missing. Furthermore, the game will enter Early Access on October 27, 2026, so the bonuses may change!
Swords are melee weapons in Emberville. They are going to be your main source of melee damage and will do most of the heavy lifting in fights.
