You play as Achilles, killed at Troy and returned from Tartarus to ancient Greece. As he fights his way through a war-torn land, he seeks to learn who brought him back and why.
Combat is viewed from an isometric perspective and uses stamina for attacks, dodges, blocks, and parries. Fight human warriors, mythic creatures, and bosses with weapons, special abilities, divine powers, and crafted grenades.
Explore connected regions, take on side quests and rift challenges, and develop Achilles through a constellation-shaped skill tree, weapon choices, and equipment upgrades. The main campaign is single-player; separate arena challenges support solo play or two-player co-op.
Players who enjoyed the game often point to its Greek mythology setting, satisfying melee combat, weapon options, and areas to explore. Some also appreciate that difficulty settings make its stamina-based, Souls-inspired fighting accessible to different play styles. Other reviews find the combat or progression shallow and the encounters repetitive, so these strengths are not shared by everyone.
Achilles: Legends Untold is a brutal action RPG that connects punishing souls-like combat with rich ARPG progression, set in the war-torn lands of Ancient Greece.
You are Achilles - hero of legend, struck down at Troy and cast into Tartarus. Gifted with a second life not by mercy, but design, you claw your way back from the underworld to discover who brought you back - and why.
Cut your way through legions of corrupted warriors, hunt monstrous beasts of legend, and clash with heroes twisted by ambition. Master precise, stamina-based combat, wield divine powers, and carve your new legend into the bones of ancient Greece.
This time, the legend of Achilles is yours to tell.
Every battle is a test of nerve and skill. Manage stamina, time every dodge, block, and strike, and turn the tide with divine abilities. Equip a set of powerful special attacks, craft a handful of grenades from gathered ingredients, and charge into battle.
One perfect counter can slay a god. One misstep could send you back to Tartarus.
Shape Achilles to match your playstyle. Select your ideal weapon, from a one-handed sword and an axe in the other, to the might of two-handed swords. Customize your build through a constellation-shaped skill tree and gear upgrades that enhance every strike.
This is your legend - the gods just haven’t heard it yet.
Duel iconic warriors like Paris and Hector in tense one-on-one encounters, each demanding precision and nerve. Hunt monsters drawn from myth, survive ambushes, and overcome boss fights that test your reflexes and resolve.
Explore meticulously handcrafted realm inspired by Greek myths. From the smoldering ruins of Troy to sun-scorched fields, haunted temples, and forgotten rifts of the underworld - every location holds secrets, side quests, and enemies pulled from ancient legend.
Forget mindless mobs. In Achilles, your enemies work together. The GAIA (Group AI Action) system makes them flank, bait, and adapt to your tactics, often making use of their environment.
You’re not just fighting cannon fodder - you’re outwitting foes who want you dead.
