The game was initially released in May 2019 and is available on multiple platforms including Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. Dauntless is set in a fantasy world where players take on the role of Slayers, brave warriors who hunt massive monsters known as Behemoths to prevent them from consuming the world's remaining resources.

Gameplay[edit | edit source]

In Dauntless, players collaborate in small teams to track and hunt Behemoths, using a variety of weapons and tactics. The game features a cooperative multiplayer mode where players can join forces to take down larger and more challenging Behemoths. Each Behemoth has its own set of abilities and behaviors, requiring players to develop strategic plans and coordinate their efforts effectively.

Players can choose from several different weapon classes, including swords, axes, hammers, and more exotic options like the war pike and chain blades. Each weapon type offers a unique playstyle and set of moves, allowing players to tailor their combat experience to their preferences.

The game was initially announced in 2016 and entered early access in 2018 before its official release in 2019.
