Ballad of Antara, a free to play fantasy action RPG, received a promising new gameplay video of nearly 15 minutes today. The game is being developed by Tipsworks, the Chinese studio behind the challenging Soulslike game Pascal’s Wager, which debuted on mobile devices in 2020 before launching on PC (Steam) in 2021 and Nintendo Switch in 2022.
Here’s a brief overview provided by publisher Infold Games:
From a distant past, the arrows of time have gone wayward, and the seeds of everything in between ceased to blossom. The familiar “essences,” taken away by a sudden cloud of Mist, are veiled under the unknown side of the world. Travel through the Para to seek towering, divine creatures. Retrieve those twisted and lost “essences” of the land and turn them into powers against the Grey Mist.
