Tags: Ceres Games; Chaos Chronicles; Realms Beyond: Ashes of the FallenWith the release of Demons Age earlier this month, I declared that the Chaos Chronicles saga had finally reached a sad end. It turns out I may have been too hasty. You might be aware that Peter "Hobgoblin42" Ohlmann, lead developer on Chaos Chronicles, left his job at SpellfForce 3 studio Grimlore Games last August, with plans to work on a mysterious indie RPG pet project on a full-time basis. Today he and his team, who call themselves Ceres Games and include our very own JarlFrank among their ranks, are finally ready to reveal their game to the world. I'm very happy to introduce Realms Beyond, a classical turn-based fantasy RPG based on Wizards of the Coast's Open Gaming License. That's right, it's Chaos Chronicles reborn. Behold:
Realms Beyond is a classically inspired fantasy role-playing computer game with turn-based combat and a party system that allows you to control up to six characters at any one time. Whether you yearn for an open world to explore at your own pace, tactical combat that allows you to plan your moves carefully, or want to lose yourself in the rich fabric of our world, trying to survive and make your mark, Realms Beyond offers endless choices, lands to travel, monster-infested dungeons and a host of storylines to follow. Adapting and responding to the player’s interactions with the world, you will find a depth and richness for your adventures that combines the very best of traditional gameplay with modern-day technologies. The result is a game world that comes alive, brimming with undiscovered stories, content, mysteries, and challenges.
Key Features:
Planned Release Date: 2019
Additional details, screenshots, videos and more are available at Realms Beyond's official website. Hurrah!
