Back in March of 2019 we learned that AurumDust Studio was working on a console port of their Banner Saga-inspired narrative-driven RPG Ash of Gods: Redemption. The initial plan was to release the console version sometime around Q2 2019. And while that release window has proven to be slightly too optimistic, a new gameplay trailer informs us that the game will finally be making its way to PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on January 31, 2020. Have a look:
And here’s a quick overview of what the game is all about:
Ash of Gods: Redemption is a turn-based RPG that combines tactical combat, CCG elements, and a constantly evolving story in which no one is safe from death, including the main characters.
GAMEPLAY
Ash of Gods is the story of three separate protagonists rising in response to a centuries-old menace once thought to be mere folklore. Captain Thorn Brenin, the bodyguard Lo Pheng, the scribe Hopper Rouley, and many others, do not yet know that the reapers have returned and intend to drown the world in blood so that they may awaken the sleeping gods.
Ash of Gods’ storyline is constantly evolving in response to players’ choices, sometimes even resulting in death. But, the death of a character is not game over. Instead, the story moves forward with the death of that character and previous choices continuing to impact future events.
Combat in Ash of Gods is a blend of both traditional turn-based strategy and CCG gameplay. While individual tactics will depend upon the skills and classes of your characters, you will unlock and accumulate cards that have the power to unleash powerful abilities, sometimes altering the course of an entire battle.
