Villains take part in a cutthroat death game to gain peace, as they are summoned to Arcanus Cella. Unlike most RPGs, you play as a villain in Cladun X3. It’s best to maximize your strength and navigate through the dangerous dungeons that are teeming with monsters and deadly traps.

Cladun X3 offers distinct characters, along with unique weapons and music. Complete the dungeons of Arcanus Cella by choosing from six different weapon types and 10 different jobs. You can select custom characters to join your force. Use their abilities and skills to boost your strength to battle against the enemies with the Magic Circle System. Different stats are allocated to each job, so choose one that suits your playing style.

Test your mettle in randomly-generated Ran-geons and conquer the death game in the story mode. You have a free hand to customize your characters, weapons, towns, and music.

The developers added a new system in the Cladun series called A Magic Circle. To gain stat boosts and abilities for a single player-controlled character, the inactive party members can be assigned to formations.  Players will also gain handy meat shields in combat to defend against the enemy attacks.

Cladun X3 is available to wishlist on Steam and releases on PC & Nintendo Switch on September 26.
