Game Description

Command the powers of the elements in this RPG that offers an entire planet for you to explore. Golden Sun Dark Dawn continues a classic series with a saga set 30 years after the healing Golden Sun rose on the land of Weyward. Psynergy Vortexes are draining power from the land.

Freeze water, create whirlwinds, shoot fireballs, and more as you explore challenging dungeons and a vast overworld that stretches across an entire planet.
