Story:After the dragon rider Rynn returns to her home village, she finds it destroyed, and all its inhabitants massacred. Her dragon, Arokh, tells her that he hears a voice that calls them to the city of Surdana. There, they find out that race of three-faced monsters, called Desert Lords, have been terrorizing the human population recently. In order to fight them, the humans need powerful allies. But the gateway to the world of dragons has been sealed, and only a dragon of the Elder Breed can open it. Rynn and Arokh must now venture to the dragon world, restore the bond between humans and dragons, and defeat the Desert Lords.
Drakan: The Ancients' Gates is an action game with RPG elements. The player will take control of both Rynn and Arokh during the course of the game. Arokh's gameplay involves flying to distant lands and dealing with some of the more powerful foes. Rynn's gameplay has more RPG elements, as she can specialize in the arts of melee fighting, archery, or magic, acquiring experience from defeated enemies.Show more

This was my first RPG. The game that kicked off my fascination with adult fantasy. I was a kid so maybe it shouldn't have but I didn't understand it at the time. It was an adventure fantasy RPG that had me constantly going back and exploring the world. I also pretended that I lived in one of the houses in the first town. Good times.
Great game with a great story set in a dark fantasy world with beautiful scenery. It's a classic and full of adventure, and there's nothing cooler than riding on the back of a magificent, powerful dragon! Venture through swamps, caves, islands, tundra, and deserts and defeat a variety of monsters on a quest to stop a race of demonic desert lords from conquering the world of Drakan.
I played Drakan: Order of the Flame in my childhood, and I'm happy I picked up this sequel; it both satisfied my nostalgia and gave me a new experience. Love both games.
Drakan: The Ancients' Gates was not the sequel, that Drakan: Order of the Flame would have deserved. But it was nevertheless a very good action-adevnture that kept much of the spirit of of the first Drakan.
Drakan: The Ancients' Gates was unfortunately very ill-fated: It was released exclusively for PS2, a fact that irritated and alienated the fan base of the first Drakan on PC.
Drakan: The Ancients' Gates never received the attention and love that it deserved. It would do the game justice to be finally playable on PC as well and to find a place on GOG.com
I still have this on PS2 and the reason I won't give that device up. Played it thru at least twice. And if IIRC one of the deadliest weapons in the game was a chicken!
This was the firs RPG I remember playing, the world felt huge, flying around on the dragon never got old. My dad and I must have put dozens of hours into this game and to this day it has a special place in my nostalgia bubble.
At my age my gaming years are counted so I really hope it makes it to GoG soon. After learning that a german base fan group was asking for the sequel to Drakan: Order of the Flame, it's been decades of longing for this. Up to day I've been unable to experience Drakan: The Ancient Gates because it was PS/2 only. And it came to the point that I almost purchase a FAT PS/3 console (it runs ps/2 titles) in 2024 just to play it not knowing if I was even going to be able to find the PS/2 disk. Can't wait to have it available in GoG.
