About Sands of Salzaar



Sands of Salzaar is an open-world strategy-action RPG with a fantastic story and hand-drawn visuals set across a sprawling desert. The Old Empire has fallen, leaving rival tribes to fight for control of the land. Build up and manage your forces from a single unit to a mighty army, then lead them into massive battles against your foes. How you progress is up to you: customize your hero with a wide variety of skills and talents, choose which factions to side with, and plan strategies carefully to establish yourself as a lone wolf, a city lord or a war schemer.

  • Epic Battles & Strategy: Recruit and train your soldiers for both large and small-scale battles and sieges. Customize your hero’s skills and become a martial arts master, powerful archmage and more. Upgrade your troops with a range of active and passive abilities from branching skill trees, manage your resources to keep them fed, and command them in real time to win. Ally with different factions, or create your own, but beware -- hostile factions will be on the hunt for you.
  • Explore a Dynamic Open World: Be whoever you want in the ever-changing wild desert - Meet a variety of characters, take on quests, enter deadly dungeons for boss fights and loot, amass gold from trading and build up your own cities through rebellion and diplomacy.
  • A New Adventure Every Time You Play: Become stronger with each playthrough, unlocking bonus game mode, characters, abilities, items, and challenges for a new experience every run.
  • Tons of New Content at Launch: Explore a host of additions for at launch, including the free-to-explore Sandbox mode, three difficulty levels, brand-new UI experiences, skill pages overhaul, more dynamic social relations, new 1v1 gameplay system and more!
