Play as a courier rider traveling across 13th-century Mongolia, carrying goods between settlements and exploring steppes, mountains, snowy regions, and desert. The open world includes wildlife and a supernatural corruption threat.
Each delivery calls for route planning and preparation: balance cargo in your saddlebags, consider terrain and changing weather, and bring supplies to keep your horse healthy. Gather and craft resources, hunt, and use a bow for hunting, gathering, or defense.

Reviews also frequently mention bugs, limited mission variety, and performance concerns.
