Sail your ship, explore islands, fight monsters, choose your abilities, and craft legendary gear to hunt for deadly bosses. Play Triarchy your way! Activate Boss Challenge Modes or enable Assists to suit your playstyle. Open-world, Co-op, Action Adventure (1-6 Players)
Sail, explore, and fight across a drowned world. Craft legendary gear and master your abilities to hunt for deadly bosses. Play solo or with friends as you uncover the secrets of the mysterious Triarchy.
Drop-in/Drop-out: Join a friend's world at any point in their journey
No Barriers or Tethering: Freely explore the world together or separately
Shared Progress: Any loot or progression made is saved to your character
Enemy Scaling: Encounters scale with your crew size for a fair fight
Hunt for deadly bosses across the isles! Each boss will test you and your crew with distinct patterns, multi-phase battles, and arena hazards that reward timing, positioning, and teamwork.
Solo or Co-op: Fights are balanced for 1-6 players
Rewards: Unique upgrade materials and boss exclusive gear
Challenge Modes: Allowing you and your crew to fight bosses again on harder difficulties. Overcome the challenge for greater rewards!
Ability Synergy
As you level-up, use your Talent Tree to unlock and master powerful abilities. From decimating your foes to supporting your allies, talent tree abilities let you help your party and define your own unique playstyle.
Melee Precision
Triarchy emphasizes intentional melee combat providing endless opportunities for growth and mastery. Fights hinge on stamina, poise breaks, and carefully timed dodges. Parry windows reward precision, and over-committing will leave you exposed to counter attacks.
A vast array of weapons can be discovered, each with their own unique style and feel. Further unleash your power and creativity with freeform dual-wield combos to mix blades and their unique on-hit effects.
Triarchy offers diverse customization options:
Choose your look in the Character Creator
Craft new armor, weapons, and more to define your build
Level-up and choose new abilities that best fit your playstyle
Your ship is more than transport, it's a fully customizable and upgradeable floating base. Outfit your ship with specialized upgrade paths that dramatically change how you explore and play:
Hulls, Sails, and more! - Upgrade for more speed, durability, and utility
Navigation Tools: Create the Map Table to help chart farther horizons and discover new challenges!
Base To-Go: With your workbench and stashes traveling with you, there's always a safe point to group up and craft
Triarchy is designed for everyone to enjoy, from hardcore to casual players:
Boss Challenges: Rematch bosses and find secret triggers to fight them on harder difficulties! Challenge Mode bosses feature new abilities, attack patterns, and balance tuning. Slaying these bosses offer better rewards for the most daring adventurers.
Assists: Assists are enabled per-player, allowing you to explore Triarchy at your own pace and play your way.
Adjust game difficulty like: damage taken, damage dealt, parry window, stamina drain, and more. Your settings don't affect others, and can be changed at anytime
Remappable Inputs: Gamepad (Xbox, PlayStation), Keyboard/Mouse
