What You'll Experience
The Hidden Wars are all that safeguard humanity from oblivion. Your enemies wield dark magics and profaned relics, their minds corrupted by the whispers of Sarthothus — a shattered god whose divided mind lurks within the very weapons you need to defeat the cults inviting humanity’s doom. Can you prevail against overwhelming odds, or will you succumb to the Mythos forces that thrive on conflict and war?
