In 106 AD, a despotic emperor turns Rome's ruins into a brutal gladiator arena amid empire-wide famine and plague. Players wield authentic weapons against brutal guardsmen and mythical creatures in an action adventure that spans city streets to Elysium. Combat relies on intuitive in-context moves, an advanced multiple-opponent system, and experience gained from kills to unlock new abilities.

Fill it to unleash Olympian talents like Herculean strength, raising the dead as allies, or elemental powers. Fans of visceral, progression-driven gladiator fights on PC crave this bloody path to vengeance.
