ENDLESS Legend 2’s Necrophage faction emerges from the depths

The third faction for the upcoming strategy game promises much glory for the hive

May 28, 2025 - Hooded Horse and Amplitude Studios have returned to reveal more details on a third faction for upcoming turn-based strategy game ENDLESS Legend 2 – The Necrophage. A hive of semi-insectoid creatures, they devour everything in their path, and now that the oceans are receding, they stand ready to defend their Queen against all who oppose them.


The Necrophage is limited to a single city that grows around the Queen, but to compensate, players can develop a network of tunnels that spread across the land to facilitate quick movement. Regions can still be seized, with the swarm harvesting local resources to send back to the capital.

This is an aggressive faction driven by instinct and insatiable hunger – they have little use for diplomacy, and minor factions are little more than extra food for the swarm. The corpses and felled cities of their enemies provide yet more fuel for the faction’s economy, and they excel at swarm tactics. Losses mean little, as victory will spawn larvae that can evolve into specialized, more powerful forms. You can find out more about the faction and their abilities here.

Anyone wanting to explore the next chapter in the ENDLESS Universe can apply for Amplitude’s Insiders Program, which is accepting new applications every month. Get early hands-on access to help shape the game via feedback, and be among the first to experience ENDLESS Legend 2.

ENDLESS Legend 2 is coming to Steam Early Access in Summer 2025. Check out previous dev diaries for the Kin and Aspect factions.
