Born Again casts you as a Ronin of the Spirit Realm on a path of redemption in the Outer Realm, where monsters and powerful bosses stand between you and the Overlords.
Explore open realms, battle enemies, hunt for equipment, and team up with other players to take on formidable foes. Combat and loot form the core of each run.
Choose a class and combine equipment and blessings to shape your playstyle. Death can end a character’s run, while Honor from past lives contributes to the journeys of future Ronins.
Players who enjoy Born Again often praise its repeatable combat-and-loot loop, the tension of permanent death, and the fun of cooperating with friends. Some also call out its pixel-art presentation and helpful players. Criticism commonly focuses on grinding and repetition, limited things to do later on, and the frustration of losing gear on death; some reviews also report connection trouble or difficulty understanding progression.
As a Ronin of the Spirit Realm, embark on a path of redemption as you hack-n-slash your way through the evil brewing in the Outer Realm. Stop the ominous Overlords in their tracks, but tread lightly, for every corner hosts clever tricksters, colossal beasts, and tyrannical kings to challenge your resolve. Cut-down the formidable and loot powerful equipment, changing the pace of your next duel!
Cooperate with new or existing friends in the open realms. Work in tandem to slay the mightiest of foes thought impossible alone.
Discover the thrill of permanent death, where each step forward is earned, however, not all is dreadful. The Honor of your past lives will build your next journey, creating a dynasty of tremendous Ronin.
Display your achievements through your worn equipment! Each weapon and piece of armor changes the look of your Ronin along with collectible hats and pet companions.
Mix up your class, equipment, and blessings to create wild and fun combinations. Be a stealthy assassin striking from the dark, a barbaric warrior hacking their way through the horde, or a precise archer supporting from afar!
