Under a Desert Sun: Seekers of the Cursed Vessel

Venture beneath the burning sands. Face an ancient evil. Survive... or be consumed.

Under a Desert Sun: Seekers of the Cursed Vessel is a single-player and co-op action RPG set against the backdrop of World War II and the supernatural legends of ancient Egypt. Play solo or team up with friends in local co-op, with future plans for online multiplayer support. Battle through intense combat, deadly traps, and supernatural hordes as you unravel a dark tale of ancient curses, lost treasures, and personal redemption.

Heroes Rise. Darkness Falls.
