In a future where humanity has already conquered the galaxy, a whole new realm of mystery and horrors beyond human comprehension opens up to them, the Primordial Expanse.

For as long as he could remember, Alex worked in the mines of an asteroid so desolate it didn't even have a name. But to him, this was home.

He knew that his future held nothing for him and he would die a lonely and forgotten death just like everyone else stuck on this godforsaken rock.

That was, until one day he wakes up to the realisation that he would die soon, as the Primordial Expanse called for him.

This mysterious realm is a place of promise and opportunity for many, but for people from the slums of society like Alex, it was only a curse that almost always guaranteed death.

Follow Alex on his journey though the Primordial Expanse as he navigates his way through battles, trials and enemies to carve out a space for himself at the peak of the universe.

Now that Alex knew what his immediate goal was – to further upgrade Virtue's Edge – he decided to inspect the sword's details one last time before setting off to fulfil this goal.


[A sword like no other. This blade was forged by Mikhail, a grandmaster swordsmith as his final work before he disappeared, never to be seen again. Forged in the heart of a Volcano, it is particularly fond of the fire element.]


[F tier effect - When combined with the fire element, the power produced with each slash will be doubled.]


[E tier effect - When wielded, the blade and its wielder gains a resistance to fire based attacks, reducing their damage by 40%. The sword will absorb residual fire energy and convert it into additional strength for the wielder's next strike.]
