Embers (辉烬) is a post-apocalyptic anime-style action RPG developed by Hangzhou Qianhu Network. Set in the ruined world of Atalan, players take on the role of “Flamebearers,” elite warriors tasked with summoning celestial beings known as “Ash Angels” to battle monstrous entities born from the ashes of civilization. The game blends immersive storytelling with high-intensity combat, offering a cooperative multiplayer experience where strategy, timing, and team synergy are key to survival.
Gameplay revolves around a dynamic battle system that includes boss weak-point targeting, stagger mechanics, and weapon-specific combat styles. Players can switch between characters mid-fight to maximize damage output, using systems like “Qi Blade” buildup for melee weapons or ammo and energy management for ranged gear. The game also features roguelike elements, rhythm-based defense breaking, and a deep character progression system. Each Ash Angel has unique abilities and lore, contributing to a rich tactical layer and replayability.
Currently, Embers is in its pre-registration phase, with over one million players already signed up. The game is scheduled to launch in late 2025 and will be available on Android and iOS platforms.
