Overview

Path of Titans is a multiplayer dinosaur survival video game being developed for home computers and mobile devices. Survive as a dinosaur in a rich ecosystem filled with intelligent AI creatures and up to 200 other players. Explore a realistic, detailed environment and complete objectives on your own or with members of your pack.

Frequent updates by the developers will add new content, and we will also provide the community with powerful modding tools to create their own dream projects.

Gameplay Features

Path of Titans will feature an extensive environment you must survive in. Find water, forage for edible plants, and hunt prey in order to avoid death. But that’s just the beginning. Partake in realistic, environment driven quests in order to gain points to put towards improving your character and permanently unlocking skins or new dinosaurs.

Path of Titans will be packed with features to allow for plenty of replayability and content for hundreds of hours of play time. Some of the main features include:

• Permanent characters with in-depth skin and trait customization
• A complex questing system.
• Group and Guild systems that allow for pack hunting and herd migration, with servers supporting up to 200 concurrent players.
• Lush environment filled with AI dinosaurs and smaller prehistoric creatures
• Swimming, diving, and fishing in both lakes and rivers.
• Cross platform functionality, play the game from your PC with your friends on mobile and vice versa.
• Powerful modding tools with extensive documentation, and a backend allowing modders to deliver their content to other players.

Playable Dinosaurs

The dinosaurs you will find in Path of Titans have been selected for variety in aesthetics, physical traits, and playstyles. From the small Camptosaurus to the giant Daspletosaurus, a wide variety of playstyles will be available. All our dinosaurs aim for scientific accuracy, with feathered species and semi-aquatic species being fully present in-game.

18 dinosaurs will be playable at launch, such as the Spinosaurus, Daspletosaurus, Allosaurus, Lambeosaurus, and more!

Modding and Community

Community is important to any game, and the Path of Titans team recognizes the amount of passion and talent dinosaur enthusiasts have. Powerful modding tools will be a staple in Path of Titans and will always be free for anyone to download and use. With extensive documentation and help to guide modders, anyone can download the dev kit and begin creating.

Our already developed mod deployment backend will allow modders to upload their content directly to our servers to be automatically patched with each new update. Dozens of mods have already been created by members of our community. A few are listed below!
