But basically the gist of it is that gods, beasts and the last remaining humans are in a war and trying ton survive. You the player will pledge allegiance to a Norse god and gain powerful abilities. The abilities will help you in your journey as you battle powerful enemies and travel to unknown lands to complete quests.<\/p>\n<p>Project Director Chris Rhinehart said, &#8220;After seventeen years, we are thrilled to finally announce a new Rune game. In the spirit of the original, Rune: Ragnarok has intense and brutal combat in a world steeped in Norse mythology. We can\u2019t wait to show you what we\u2019ve created.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The game is being funded by ESDF Management.\u00a0ESDF Managing Partner Matt Candler said\u00a0\u201cRune: Ragnarok is the first video game we\u2019ve committed to financing.
