Description

Beyond sanctuary, a realm of elemental pandemonium awaits.

A once-peaceful kingdom is plunged into chaos by encroaching tides of Mages: merciless embodiments of elemental chaos. The Marked Inquisitors, a doomed force of the condemned, once again mobilizes to stand against the existential threat of Magic. A buried secret threatens to bring an ancient empire to utter ruin.

In a land plagued by powerful and twisted Mages, the condemned Marked Inquisitors take up the hunt.

As a Marked Inquisitor, you’ll journey through the western frontier: pursuing, hunting, and obliterating the Mages that roam the realm.

You may be bound to the Inquisition, but your choices are yours.

Wield the Power of Your Foes

Craft unique weapons and armor from the otherworldly flesh and bones of the Mages you destroy. Master dozens of powerful weapons and runic arts: “safe” manipulations of the corrupt Magic your foes wield.

A Dense and Detailed World

Explore a large and labyrinthine world filled with scavengers, secrets, traps, and powerful guardians.

Online Multiplayer

Team up with a fellow Inquisitor for full online co-op and drop-in quickplay online co-op, or engage in fast and chaotic PvP through various factions.

First off, we all must realize this is not Salt and Sanctuary 2, it's Salt and Sacrifice, so I'll judge the game on it's own terms, so... Souls-like meets Monster Hunter Picture this scenario: you're on a hunt in a MH

The current "mixed reviews" status breaks my heart. This is a great game. It's a souls metroidvania with chase 'em down hunt mechanic mixed with some stationary bosses as well. It's not the second game of the series to

One of my favourite games and a good succesor to the first in the series. the mixed reviews are really sad because it led to this game overall dying which sucks because it has great multiplayer and cooperative elements

I went into Salt and Sacrifice completely open minded and blind. I have not played its much more popular predecessor and had no clue about this game's negative reviews. I also played the entire game in coop and honestly

The levels are not optimised for the various mages, the DPS is way too high, being able to be air-juggled to death is not fun and heavy armour feels like a worthless investment. Also, no proper respeccing, respec one at

Salt & Sanctuary was a masterpiece, this game is not. It does not come close to it at all, and I'm not gonna bother playing this further. Also it was an Epic Exclusive. I did not forget.
