Relic Hunters Legend pairs fast-paced shooting with the long-term decisions of a looter-shooter RPG. Its story follows the Relic Hunters as they seek ancient relics and the stolen past, opposing the galactic rule of Duke Ducan. Seven, a mysterious ally with no memories and the ability to travel through time, joins their journey. The premise gives its battles a broader purpose than simply collecting better equipment.
Combat and character-building are closely linked. Players choose among Hunters with distinct abilities, then shape them through mix-and-match skill trees, attribute points, weapon and gear slots, and a relic to discover, craft, and level up. Loot comes with varied rarities and affixes that can alter a build, while crafting offers another way to pursue equipment suited to a chosen approach. The result is a game where shooting encounters feed into ongoing experimentation with gear and skills.
The format accommodates either offline solo play or online co-op with up to three friends, and activities scale for as many as four players. Its activities range from exploration areas and missions with several modes to timed special missions, boss-filled Delves, and endgame challenges. Players can also concentrate on the story campaign or set it aside to focus on progression and endgame systems.
