Game Description

The Four Guardian Gods, who once protected the kingdom from demonic spirits, have succumbed to a mysterious corruption. As ancient evils swarm the land, the kingdom teeters on the brink of ruin.

Chosen by the Yellow Dragon, you must embark on a perilous journey alongside HaeTae, the divine beast of protection. Can you purify the land and save the kingdom from its darkest hour?

HaeTae: Guardians is a stylized action-adventure set in a fantasy world inspired by the Joseon Dynasty. Learn secret techniques from diverse allies, overcome challenging boss encounters, and harness their power to transform HaeTae’s abilities. Discover hidden scrolls and relics to create powerful synergies and find your ultimate combat build.

Key Features

You are the Chosen Prince.

Purify the corrupted Guardian Gods. The road ahead is treacherous, but the fate of the nation rests in your hands. 

Top-Down Combat

The Prince handles physical strikes while HaeTae unleashes divine skills. Start with basic movements and attacks, then evolve your arsenal by meeting various mentors. The bosses are unforgiving—victory requires precision and strategy. Can the Prince endure and save his kingdom?

The Groggy System through Purification

HaeTae is the ultimate symbol of purification. By landing HaeTae’s skills on corrupted bosses or elite monsters, you can trigger a Groggy state. Master HaeTae’s timing to create windows of devastating opportunity.

The Boss Challenge: The Trials Never End

Defeating a boss is just the beginning. Test your limits in Boss Trials, featuring tougher conditions and environmental hazards. Overcome new rules and monster combinations to achieve high scores and earn rare relics as rewards.

HaeTae Awakening

HaeTae can store divine energy to unleash a massive burst of power. As you land continuous attacks, HaeTae’s portrait transforms, signaling the awakening of a devastating form. This power varies depending on the Boss Essence you have equipped. Find the awakening that suits your style.

Mentors and Secret Manuals

The Prince can learn various techniques from allies encountered throughout the journey. Beyond that, you can obtain Secret Manuals by defeating bosses or exploring hidden areas. Construct your own build using the 'Secret Manual' system—where immense power always comes with a price. 

Boss Essences: HaeTae’s Infinite Evolution

Defeating a boss grants you their Essence. These Essences can be used to fundamentally change HaeTae’s abilities. Switch between Essences anytime to experiment with different synergies. Will you focus on explosive firepower, or choose to outmaneuver your enemies with sheer agility?

Relic Collection

Acquire Relics by defeating elite monsters or conquering Boss Trials. Relics grant the Prince special powers, and Set Bonuses can exponentially increase the capabilities of both the Prince and HaeTae. Combine them with Secret Manuals to test diverse performance builds and find the strongest combination!

Game Tips

If you can overcome the first boss, the Heavenly General (Jangseung), you have what it takes to reach the end of this journey.

Do not falter. Walk the path of purification until the very end.
