Developer Silent Games and publisher Secret Mode have announced that its upcoming single-player action-RPG Empyreal will be released on May 8 for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. On a distant world where humanity has discovered a strange monolith built by a lost civilization, players will explore this location while mastering various weapons and RPG systems.
In a developer diary, creative director Joseph Rogers went into more detail on the game, describing it as a third-person game about “transcendental revelations” that players will discover as they venture deeper into the monolith. Thematically, Empyreal asks questions about the human condition, its place in the cosmos, and whether societal systems like duty and honor are still driving forces in humanity’s story.
In terms of gameplay, Empyreal blends action-RPG mechanics with design aspects reminiscent of isometric-ARPG games like Diablo. Much like games within this genre, you’ll have the liberty to develop different skills at your disposal; however, you can only utilize a limited number of them in any given moment. Consequently, you will need to strategically combine and select abilities that complement your preferred playing style.
This game features three unique weapon types that significantly alter the battle dynamics, and you’ll find yourself frequently adjusting your character during your adventure. Additionally, Silent Games mentioned that Empyreal will include an extensive endgame experience, along with a New Game Plus mode featuring unique elements only available on a new playthrough.
1. The game features cartograms that can dynamically alter a level and guide you in search of specific rewards.
2. There’s an option to show kindness to other players by offering assistance.
3. Defeating certain enemies will create a tear in reality, allowing you to share your equipment with another player if you wish to donate some gear.
Giving an item to someone else will boost its attributes, but this is merely a friendly gesture since you won’t receive any benefit from it yourself. Rogers emphasized that the success of this feature relies on the entire community participating in it. He’s eager to see how and whether players decide to utilize this feature.
The first publication under the brand “Empyreal” is set to be released by Secret Mode, now an independent publisher, after its recent acquisition from Sumo Group by Emona Capital this month.
