Kenshi | An Open Ended, Squad Based RPG

What Is Kenshi?

A free-roaming squad based PC game with RPG elements, focusing on open-ended sandbox gameplay features rather than a linear story.
Choose to be a thief, a bandit, a rebel, a warlord or a mercenary.
You can be a trader, a doctor, a peacekeeper, a business man, an explorer, or a mere slave...
The list goes on, but you've got to stay alive first...

Customize Your Squad

Create and grow your own unique characters, expand your squad and train them up from insignificant weaklings into legendary warriors

Scrape By And Survive

You are not special unless you work for it. Survive your beatings, get captured by cannibals, sold to slavers or conscripted into armies

Explore The World

Set in an alternative fantasy swordpunk desert world, freely roam and explore a seamless 870 sq/km* world map, the largest in a single-player RPG since daggerfall

Build and expand your own fortress. Protect yourself and your people from the outside world. Make allies and wage war with other factions and clans

Start A Business

Purchase and upgrade your own buildings to use as safe fortified havens when things go bad, or use them to start up a business

Heal Your Injuries

Wounded characters will limp, crawl, lose their vision, or succumb to blood loss, exhaustion and thirst. Severed limbs need robotic replacements*

Earn Your Way

The world does not level up along with you. At the start of the game almost everyone will be stronger than you, and survival will always be a struggle
