Get ready to bring down the gods, for Elta
Elta: Defy All Gods is a science-fantasy action-platformer, blending free-form melee combat, fluid platforming and sci-fi exploration. Play as Victus, an elite warrior monk seeking their lost god, Elta, in the hopes of finding a path forward for their civilization. Restoring Elta’s former power might be the key to a new, brighter future.
With each new challenge, Victus and Elta will become stronger, unlocking new martial art techniques and devastating magic abilities. Each corrupted world they explore is sprawling and filled with hidden secrets, requiring mastery of an evolving traversal toolkit to reach the furthest places. Mastering both explosive combat and agile platforming is crucial to becoming a true divine champion.

Developed by the indie team behind Dreamscaper, Elta: Defy All Gods aims to carve out a new space in the action-platformer genre by taking inspiration from both brawlers and 3D metroidvania games to create a fresh, high-octane, gameplay-first experience.
“For our second title we've gone much bigger, taking all we've learned about weighty combat, satisfying game feel, and fluid action to another level,” said Ian Cofino, Co-Founder & Game Director at Afterburner Studios. “Focus Entertainment has been a terrific partner in our goal to create a world-class action title, enabling our team to realize a very ambitious vision.”
Elta: Defy All Gods is planned for release in early 2027 on PC (Steam), Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. To let all players experience what makes Elta: Defy All Gods stand out among action-platformers, a free demo featuring the beginning of the game will be available October 1 on all platforms.
