From the very beginning of this journey, we promised Gods, Death & Reapers would be built with the community, not just for it. We’ve tested the game together, gathered your thoughts, and perhaps most importantly, listened between the lines of what you’ve said (and not said). One message was loud and clear: you wanted ways to explore, loot, and uncover mysteries without constant PvP pressure. Now, you’ll have three ways to play! Today, we’re thrilled to share the news that Gods, Death & Reapers will feature both Single Player and Co-op PvE, available alongside our main PvPvE mode!
Why Are We Adding PvE & Co-op PvE?
We know some of you crave the thrill of exploration, the satisfaction of looting, and the joy of uncovering mysteries without the constant pressure of battling other Reapers or risking all your gear.
For those adventurers and friendly souls, these new modes will let you experience Project Pantheon on your terms.
Three Ways to Play
It’s important to remind you that we’re still in the very early phases of development, hence what’s mentioned here is subject to change and improvement, but initially, we’re planning to let you select from three game modes when creating a character. Your character will be locked to that game mode.
Story mode – Yours to Keep
Delve into the depths of the afterlife, uncover the mystery of the dead Gods, and take your time without the fear of losing your gear:
Fully offline, no connection to other players or the marketplace.
Keep your loot even if you die.
Explore the afterlife at your own pace without gear loss worries.
Co-op PvE – No PvP Threats
Gather your allies or go solo, hop onto a map, battle fierce factions, and unravel more of the story together. But beware; if you fail to extract, your gear is gone. High stakes, higher rewards… and even better with friends:
Team up with friends in a self-contained economy.
Items are lost on death, but never from another player’s blade.
Face enemy factions, uncover the story, and claim rewards worth the risk.
Normal PvPvE – The Core Experience
The heart of Gods, Death & Reapers remains intact! Our intense, gear-risking, Reaper-vs-Reaper-vs-Environment extraction mode. Compete, survive, and claim your victory… or lose it all:
Compete and survive in the high-stakes, extraction-based mode you know.
PvP enabled, gear at risk, and glory for those who make it out alive.
Trading only with other PvPvE players for a fair playing field.
When Will These Modes Be Ready?
We’re still early in development for PvE and Co-op, but we’ll share progress and invite feedback at every step. Our goal: parity between modes so you can enjoy the same world and features, no matter what your playstyle is.
