If you thought fantasy RPGs were getting a bit too serious, Debauchery & Magic—the upcoming co-op action RPG from 3rd Shift Studios—is here to kick open the tavern doors, spill the mead, and turn the genre completely on its head.

Set in the vibrant world of Haven, this title promises to mix classic dungeon-crawling with chaotic, vice-fuelled antics, proving that saving the kingdom doesn’t always have to be a strictly noble affair.

Welcome to Haven: Where the Party Used to Never End

In Haven, magic thrives and debauchery is strictly forbidden.

It wasn’t always this way. Haven was once a fantastical realm fueled by endless celebrations, vibrant revelry, and an economy running on indulgence. But following the wild coronation of Prince Baytre, a ruthless new regime stepped in. Under the rule of the royal family, revelry has been banned, fun is outlawed, and shenanigans of any kind are punishable by death.

Now, Haven is trapped under a tyrannical shadow government—and it’s up to you to restore freedom (and the right to party) back to its people.

Defy a Ruthless Dictator: How Debauchery & Magic Plays

Debauchery & Magic puts you in the boots of a dangerously powerful wizard, allowing you to take the fight directly to the royal forces. Whether you want to beat down enemy guards as a close-range melee brawler or rain fire from afar as a master spellcaster, the game offers total freedom in how you liberate Haven.

Here is what gamers can look forward to:

• 12-Player Co-Op Chaos: Team up solo or bring along up to 11 friends to quest, loot, and battle your way across the kingdom. Resurrect teammates after terrible decisions, dive into procedural dungeons together, or just hang out.
• Dynamic Vice System: Your magic is potent, but so are your vices. Drinking concoctions, smoking alchemical blends, and partaking in forbidden indulgences directly influence your stats, abilities, and combat flow. Expect power buffs, hilariously unpredictable debuffs, combat hallucinations, and chaotic side effects.
• Procedural Dungeons & Unstable Weapons: No two dungeon runs are identical. Layouts, traps, spell modifiers, and loot constantly shift. Weapons roll with randomized magical properties, letting players craft wildly overpowered or hilariously unstable builds.
• Extensive Professions: Fighting the crown requires resources. Players can sharpen their skills in a wide variety of professions including Alchemy, Brewing, Carpentry, Fishing, Gambling, Herbalism, Mining, Smithing, and Woodcutting.
• Gnarly Transportation & Minigames: Need a break from dungeon crawling? You can gamble your hard-earned gold in secret underground casinos, kick back and fish for uncouth aquatic creatures, or show off to the local townsfolk by shredding through Haven on a skateboard.

Freedom, Chaos, and High-Fantasy Fun

By combining dark fantasy magic with chaotic co-op mechanics and irreverent humour, Debauchery & Magic is aiming to be a breath of fresh air for RPG fans looking for uninhibited fun. If you and your squad are ready to defy a tyrant, break every rule in the book, and leave a trail of wild indulgence across the kingdom, this is one title you’ll definitely want to keep an eye on.

Debauchery & Magic is currently in development by 3rd Shift Studios and is available to wishlist now on Steam.
