Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen is a high-fantasy MMO set on Terminus, where a war severed the bond between people and their gods. The inhabitants now seek to uncover their history and recover that silenced divine power, against the threat of another conflict. Its social premise is reflected in party and guild play, which brings adventurers together to face greater challenges.
Exploration combines a seamless world across three continents with climbing and a Perception System that can reveal clues, dialogue, and outcomes shaped by a character’s adventures and choices. The game also describes six climates, supernatural Fractures, and secrets that emerge at night. Players choose among nine races and fourteen classes, then spend earned experience to improve skills and attributes through the Mastery System. Class abilities can aid combat, alter the environment, or provide services to other adventurers.
Combat calls for strategy, knowledge, and teamwork, with four roles: Tank, Healer, Damage, and Support. Characters prepare a limited selection of skills, while enemies can choose tactics in response to circumstances and vary in disposition. Parties, guilds, and cooperative challenges make multiplayer an important part of its stated design.
