Eight heroes. One legend to write.
-
Build your champion from eight characters across four classes : warrior, mage, thief and priest , each with its own strengths, combat style and feel.
-
Grow your arsenal and spellbook as you adventure: dozens of weapons, spells and talents to discover.
-
Dungeons, quests, monsters and loot are randomly generated, and five difficulty levels keep the challenge alive. No two descents are ever the same.
New in the Restoration
-
Buddy mode. Darkstone always let you raise two heroes and switch between them. Now hold a single button to take direct control of your companion mid-fight, reposition them, aim their spells, chain a combo, then release to hand them straight back to the AI. Coordinate both heroes in the very same fight, something the original never allowed.
-
Shared-world couch co-op. The original only offered networked play, with two separate worlds and two inventories. The Restoration adds brand-new couch co-op: one world, one save, two players on the same adventure. A second player drops in to control your companion whenever they like, and drops out just as easily. Playing remotely? Steam Remote Play Together has you covered.
-
Legacy mode. A dedicated mode that restores the authentic 1999 look and feel for purists.
Restored and modernized for today

Native 64-bit modern-Windows build with improved stability, modern displays and resolutions, borderless windowed mode and a configurable frame-rate cap.
