Haroona is ready to Step into the Unknown

Haroona is prepared to leverage her ties to the Fold—another plane of existence she realizes she’s visited countless times, for as long as she can remember. She knows this shadow realm harbors much danger but conquering it can unleash her Umbric potential along with a vast amount of hidden knowledge.

She realizes that her ultimate purpose extends far beyond seeking retribution for the traumas of her past. After all, the future of humankind is in jeopardy.

She recognizes her potential and will stop at nothing to master her Fold-powered abilities, for herself, for Reika, for humanity.

Haroona is ready to awaken. The question is, are you?

Powerful Umbric abilities on display

The Gameplay Walkthrough Trailer gave you a taste of the different Umbric approaches you can take to tackle Ascendant forces, and the Live-Action trailer puts some of her most impressive combat, stealth, and Umbric moves on display.

Haroona uses her Push ability to take down an enemy Ascendant in an Unknown 9: Awakening video game fight scene.

Get up close and personal with Haroona, going beyond quick-paced melee sequences, as she hurls Umbric energy to Push an opponent away. Catch her Stepping into an Ascendant to take out one of his comrades and witness her wielding her mysterious Shroud ability. This trailer is your front-row ticket to experiencing just how potent her Umbric skills are.
