What happens between creating a character and your first fight? We recorded two short clips from an early build of Aarkun to show how that opening plays out.
Create your hero
The first clip moves through hair, eye colours and piercings, then gives a look at specialisations including Arcanist, Warmage and Beastmaster.
Survive the shore
You wake up shipwrecked on Starter Island. In this clip, a rusty kitchen knife and two potions are all we have against three giant red crabs. We finish the fight on single-digit health, with an aurora overhead.
The Early Access Alpha starts Friday 4 December 2026. The launcher will be available on launch day, and we’ll email registered players the download link.
