Crimson Moon FAQ
What is Crimson Moon?
Crimson Moon is a Gothic action-adventure RPG built around replayable Hunts, Souls-inspired melee combat, classless builds, and permanent Gear progression.
Start with the beginner guideCan I play Crimson Moon solo or in co-op?
You can complete the full game solo or play in two-player online co-op. Co-op supports full cross-platform play on supported platforms.
Read the co-op guideDoes Crimson Moon have traditional classes?
No. Your Gear, Weapon Arts, Boons, and chosen Angel define the build you take into each Hunt, so you can change playstyles between Runs.
Learn how builds workWhat happens when a Run fails?
You keep collected XP, levels, unlocks, Lore Scrolls, and Gear secured through a Nexus Gate. Unsecured loot and found Consumables are lost. Support describes some Souls surviving the failure settlement, but the official Run guide says a new Run starts with zero Souls.
Understand the Run loopHow do I keep Gear between Hunts?
Carry equipped or stored Gear through a Nexus Gate or complete the Mission. Secured Gear returns in purified form and becomes available from the Armory.
See the purification stepsHow do Wards and Missions work?
Wards are larger regions containing Mission locations. A Run connects three Missions and a World Boss, with the Final Boss afterward once unlocked by the second Abraxas Stone. You select the next assignment at the hub; returning there between Missions does not end the Run.
Explore Wards and MissionsDoes higher difficulty give better loot?
Yes. Higher difficulty increases XP and improves the minimum and maximum Gear Quality available from drops. Exact tier details have not yet been published.
