The critically acclaimed turn-based RPG launches on the 22ndof October 2024.
Auroch Digital has announced today that it will be publishing Worldwalker Games’ critically acclaimed Wildermyth on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S launching 22nd of October.
Wildermyth: Console Edition is a character-driven, procedurally generated turn-based tactical RPG that puts your characters at the heart of the story. Leading a band of farmers turned heroes, players will face encounters where decisions will have character-defining consequences, changing their appearances, granting them new abilities and forming a narrative that is unique to the player.
Reminiscent of tabletop roleplaying games, every scene from its richly layered papercraft world looks straight out of a fairytale pop-up book. Great attention has been paid in creating something truly unique, breaking away from the traditional fantasy tropes and exploring new ideas: forget orcs and elves – how about telepathic insect dragons and clockwork undead chimeras?
No adventure can last forever, but as characters age or die, they live on in their children who form the bulk of your new party in consequent campaigns. Players’ favourite heroes can be added to a legendary pantheon, called upon again in future playthroughs
New for console:
- Redesigned UI and Controls for gamepad
Auroch Digital has taken care in ensuring that the much-loved experience from Wildermyth’s original release is not lost in the console edition.
The UI and controls have been redesigned to work with a gamepad in mind, ensuring in-game elements are easily readable, and the controls feel intuitive for the best gaming experience.
Two new features:
- Monster Compendium
- Local cooperative multiplayer
Wildermyth: Console Edition also introduces two new and exclusive features. The first of these is the Monster Compendium, an in-game tome that provides detailed information and lore about enemies and the factions they serve. The second feature introduces local cooperative multiplayer, each player taking command of multiple characters and allowing them to share in an unfolding story together.
Wildermyth: Console Edition will be available digitally on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. Physical editions of the game will be available from select retailers for Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5 and will include a physical copy of the Monster Compendium and a new ‘Off-hand Item Skin Pack’ DLC, featuring a collection of off-hand items such as torches, shields and more.
