THE DESTINATIONPC / In development

01 / BEYOND THE TORII

The shrines are
falling silent.

Every forest, river, and mountain has a spirit. But something is taking them away.

In this original fantasy world, the realm of the living and the spirit realm exist side by side. The kami are woven into the land itself, and their disappearance threatens the balance between the two. Follow forgotten trails, seek out sacred shrines, and uncover what is happening to the kami.

This is a world you’ll need to live in, not simply pass through. Gather what you need, make a place to call home, and prepare for what waits beyond the firelight. Health, stamina, hunger, and temperature all matter. Knowing when to push on, and when to turn back, is part of surviving here.

BEHIND THE NAME

Yaoyorozu no Kami (八百万の神) draws on a Shinto expression for the innumerable kami. “Eight million” speaks to their vastness, rather than a literal count.

02 / THE KAMI PATHS

Which power
will answer you?

Hone your skills through experience. Seek out shrines for supernatural talents, and shape your build through the Kami Paths.

Choose an emblem to explore its path.

KAGUTSUCHI / FIRE

Flame that refuses to fade.

A spark in the dark. A force that consumes. Follow the path of fire.

WHAT YOU LEARN

Skills earned through experience.

Earn XP and invest in your Warrior’s Path to develop your fighting style and unlock active techniques. This is the craft you bring to a fight.

02

Build a reason to return.

Gather, craft, and build. Craft the tools you need, turn a patch of wilderness into shelter, and build a home worth coming back to. The quiet work between expeditions gives you a reason to venture out again.

03

Face what follows.

Develop your combat skills, draw on supernatural talents, and face the threats beyond the human world. Walk alone, or bring friends into your world in online co-op. Explore, build, and face the unknown together, with room for different fighting styles in the same group.
