The 33 Immortals Wiki is a collaborative, community-driven online resource dedicated to the co-op action-roguelike video game 33 Immortals, developed and published by Thunder Lotus Games. Launched to support fans and players, this wiki aims to document every aspect of the game, from its gameplay mechanics and narrative inspirations to its development journey and community involvement. As of March 15, 2025, with the game nearing its Early Access release on March 18, 2025, the wiki serves as a vital hub for players preparing to dive into its 33-player cooperative raids.
Purpose and Scope
The 33 Immortals Wiki is designed to be an open-editing platform where anyone can contribute, making it a living encyclopedia for the game. Its primary goal is to provide comprehensive information on:
- Gameplay Mechanics: Details on character archetypes (melee, ranged, support, tank), weapons inspired by the seven deadly sins and seven heavenly virtues, and the cooperative "co-op powers."
- Story and Lore: Exploration of the game's Divine Comedy-inspired narrative, featuring reimagined characters like Beatrice, Dante, Virgil, and Charon.
- Development History: Updates on Thunder Lotus Games' first venture into online multiplayer, including beta tests and Early Access plans.
- Community Resources: Guides, strategies, and player-contributed content to enhance the "pick-up and raid" experience.
The wiki currently maintains over 40 pages, covering topics from the hub world "Dark Forest" to the procedurally generated Torture Chambers and Ascension Battles. Its scope continues to expand as the game evolves through its Early Access phase.
Game Overview
33 Immortals is an ambitious action-roguelike that pits 33 damned souls against God’s final judgment in a rebellion spanning Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven. Developed by Thunder Lotus Games—known for single-player hits like Spiritfarer—the game marks the studio’s first online multiplayer title. Players collaborate in 25-minute raid sessions, navigating randomly generated challenges, collecting Relics, and facing massive bosses. The game’s "pick-up and raid" design streamlines the MMO raid experience, emphasizing quick matchmaking and cooperative survival.
The narrative draws heavily from Dante Alighieri’s The Divine Comedy, with modern twists: Beatrice leads the rebellion, Virgil is a female scholar versed in science and weaponry, and the players’ ultimate goal is to defy a cruel God. Set for Early Access release on March 18, 2025, for Windows PC and Xbox Series X|S via the Epic Games Store and Xbox Game Pass, the game promises ongoing updates based on community feedback.
Development and Community Involvement
Thunder Lotus Games has embraced a community-centric approach to 33 Immortals’ development. After announcing the game at the Xbox Showcase in June 2023, the studio conducted multiple closed beta tests, including one in May-June 2024 and another in September 2024, involving 47,000 players. These betas tested two regions—Inferno and Purgatorio—revealing balance issues (e.g., the archer Bowie’s overwhelming difficulty) that the team is addressing before launch.
The studio has actively invited player input through spontaneous playtests and Discord discussions, encouraging sign-ups via their official site (33immortals.com). This feedback loop has shaped features like the modifier system for added challenges and rewards, ensuring the game evolves with its audience. The 33 Immortals Wiki reflects this ethos, offering a space for players to document strategies, share beta experiences, and speculate on the unreleased Paradiso region.
Wiki Features
The 33 Immortals Wiki stands out with:
- Editable Content: No special permissions are required beyond registration, fostering broad participation.
- Lore Pages: Detailed entries on characters like Beatrice, reimagined as the rebellion’s leader, and the 14 sin-and-virtue-inspired weapons.
- Gameplay Guides: Tips for surviving Torture Chambers, unlocking Legendary Relics, and coordinating 33-player teams.
- Development Timeline: A chronicle of beta phases, delays (from 2024 to 2025), and Thunder Lotus’ expansion into dual development teams.
As of March 15, 2025, the wiki is poised to grow with the Early Access launch, capturing real-time updates and player discoveries.
Reception and Potential
While 33 Immortals has not yet fully launched, early impressions from betas suggest a mixed but promising reception. Critics note its innovative 33-player co-op as a highlight, though some, like Paste Magazine’s Elijah Gonzalez, found the Open Beta’s gameplay sluggish compared to peers like Hades. Thunder Lotus aims to refine these elements, and the wiki will track such changes, offering a historical record of the game’s evolution.
The wiki’s potential lies in its ability to unite a global player base, especially with crossplay planned between PC and Xbox. By cataloging everything from boss patterns to cosmetic customization, it could become an essential companion for the game’s chaotic, cooperative raids.
