A new tactical RPG, Never’s End, is poised to shake up the genre with a bold mix of elemental magic and systems-driven combat. Developed by Hypersect, this ambitious title is set to launch on PC via Steam and PlayStation consoles in late 2025. Announced at The MIX Showcase, Never’s End promises highly interactive battlefields that reward clever strategies and creative problem-solving.
In Never’s End, you play as an immortal warrior, reincarnated as a being of living metal. You wield the power of fire, water, wind, earth, and your mission is to protect the last human settlement from the Never, an apocalyptic force spawning grotesque creatures like undead wights, monstrous bats, and demon squid goats.
The turn-based combat is anything but static. Every battlefield is a dynamic playground where your elemental magic can reshape the environment. In other words, you can drain rivers to strand enemies, summon fog to obscure their vision, or hurl them off cliffs with gusts of wind. You can also freeze foes, set them ablaze, or melt the ground into deadly lava, making each encounter a unique puzzle to solve.
Beyond the battlefield, Never’s End offers an open world where you lead a band of possessed warriors to reclaim a shattered empire. You’ll upgrade towns, temples, and outposts, fostering businesses and trade routes while recruiting new companions to join your fight. Additionally, restoring ancient temples unlocks new elemental spells, each a versatile tool that persists through your warrior’s endless cycle of death and rebirth.
