Storyline

You are a native of the island Tier Fred who is captured and brought to Gakan. Your initial goal is to escape and return home, but events steer you into a far larger destiny.

  • GreedFall is set on the dying continent of Gakan, where the Malachor plague and ongoing wars destabilize nations.
  • The continent is governed by rival factions and fragile alliances; your choices affect political balances and the fate of two worlds.
  • You will meet eight companions, each with their own backstory and secrets; they can become allies, friends, lovers, or rivals depending on your decisions.

Gameplay highlights

  • Narrative-driven RPG with branching choices that shape the story and relationships.
  • Multiple approaches to problems: persuasion, cunning (stealth/strategy), or brute force (combat).
  • Party-based play: coordinate companions for tactical combat or opt for a more action-oriented style.
  • Crafting and gear forging: upgrade equipment to gain advantages against tougher enemies.
  • Skill progression: unlock and master powerful abilities to suit your preferred playstyle.
  • Exploration-focused: large areas of Gakan contain hidden treasures and secrets to discover.

Strategies and key tips

  • Choose your approach to encounters early (diplomacy, stealth, or combat) and invest in corresponding skills or attributes.
  • Build a balanced party to cover roles (damage, survivability, utility/persuasion) so you can tackle diverse challenges.
  • Use tactical coordination in fights when needed — position and companion abilities matter if you prefer precision.
  • Prioritize crafting and upgrading gear to stay ahead of escalating threats.
  • Complete companion-related quests and interact with them — relationships influence options and outcomes.
  • Explore thoroughly for hidden treasures and resources that fuel crafting and character progression.
  • Be mindful that major choices have lasting consequences for factions, companions, and the world’s fate.
