Ancestral Players reimagines the classic Arena Shooter with a vengeful twist. In this arena, death is just a power-up. Every time you fall, you level up, gaining powerful abilities to hunt down the person who just took you out. But remember, your lives are limited: wipe out the competition and be the last man standing.
Settle the score with friends in private lobbies or prove your dominance in our regular tournaments.

Every shot is earned. Master an arsenal where every projectile follows its own path:

In Ancestral Players, everyone starts on equal footing, equipped with nothing but a dagger and a brief. Depending on the game mode, you will level up either by following a pre-established progression path (inspired by 'gun game' game modes), or pick upgrades yourself in the skill tree game mode.


Players aren’t the only danger in the arena, stay alert to the shifting environment. Master your movements to escape hazardous situations.
