Side-Scrolling Action RPG Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising Launches Today!

Hugely Anticipated Prequel to Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Coming To All Major Consoles, PC and Xbox Game Pass

CALABASAS, Calif. — May 10, 2022 — Global publisher 505 Games, Rabbit & Bear Studios (headed by Yoshitaka Murayama, a creator of Suikoden), and NatsumeAtari proudly launch Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising, the fast-paced 2.5D action RPG that serves as a companion prequel game to 2023’sEiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes. Brave a new world brimming with adventure today on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam, Epic and GOG. Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising is also available today via Xbox and PC Game Pass.

Once a prosperous town in the continent of Allraan, New Neveah lies in a state of disrepair thanks to a devastating earthquake. Not all is lost, however — the earthquake revealed ancient Runebarrows deep underground. As the townsfolk rebuild, adventurers from around the world arrive to plunder the ruins’ riches, including powerful artifacts called Rune-lenses. Here, three soon-to-be heroes embark on a journey with far-reaching implications for the Eiyuden Chronicle universe.

CJ, a carefree and confident treasure hunter, hopes to fulfill her rite of passage by bringing home a haul worthy of her family name. Isha, a powerful spellcaster and daughter of New Neveah’s missing mayor, taxes opportunistic scavengers at every turn to reconstruct the town. Beastman Mercenary Garoo says he’s only in it for the money, but his heart’s secretly as big as his punishing sword. 

Master each character’s distinct fighting style: nimbly double-jump over opponents as CJ, teleport and unleash ice magic as Isha, and deflect projectile attacks with Garoo before counter-attacking with massive sword swings. Face massive bosses and take them down with devastating, timing-based combos known as Link Attacks.

Explore beast-ridden forests, mystical ruins, frost-wreathed mountain peaks and other jaw-dropping locations. Rising’s gorgeous artstyle combines 3D environments, impressive sprites, and hand-painted enemies to convey an incredible sense of depth. A nostalgic soundtrack accompanies these vivid visuals, solidifying Eiyuden as an action RPG for fans of the classics and newcomers alike.

Assist the denizens of New Neveah by collecting materials in dungeons. Unlock new weapons, armor, accessories, and more by rebuilding the shops in town. Reap additional awards carrying over to next year’s Hundred Heroes including cosmetic items, valuable equipment, trade goods and more. Unravel the intricacies of a conspiracy-laden plot set to continue throughout the events of 2023’s Hundred Heroes, which will launch on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC via Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store, and 505 Games is proud to announce today it will also launch on Nintendo Switch.

Eiyuden Chronicle: Rising is available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation |5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam, GOG, Epic Games Store, and STOVE for $14.99/€14.99/ £12.99.

Outward: Definitive Edition Releases 17 May ON Playstation 5, xBox series X/s & PC

Explore the world of Aurai with a brand new trailer

Sydney, Australia – May 9^th, 2022: The wait is almost over: the all-encompassing ultimate adventure experience, Outward: Definitive Edition will be available for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC on 17 May 2022.

The Definitive Edition of Outward lets seasoned players rediscover the base game with both DLCs – “Three Brothers” and “The Soroboreans” – along with a plethora of new and updated content.

On your journey you’ll experience unique encounters – and dangerous foes – as you explore the dungeons while traversing the vast world laid out in front of you.

A new trailer – looking at the world through the eyes of an experienced adventurer – was also unveiled; you can check it out here:

For first time players, this is a golden opportunity to dive headfirst into all the adventures the magical world Aurai has to offer, either as a solo experience or co-op with a friend.

As an ordinary adventurer, you’ll not only have to hide or defend yourself against threatening creatures, but also brave the hazardous environmental conditions, protect yourself against infectious diseases, make sure you get enough sleep and stay hydrated. Embark on perilous expeditions across untamed lands to reach new cities, undertake varied missions and discover hidden dungeons crawling with formidable enemies.

Complicating matters is the ‘Corruption’ – a toxic material spreading across the land that can best be described as radioactivity of the soul. Found naturally in the land, it’s distribution was concentrated and expanded after the Scourge Spell was cast, which also destroyed cities and created the most dangerous monsters at the same time.

These and many more challenges await all adventurers who dare to go venture out into the wilderness and cities the world of Outward has in store.

Returning players who already own the base game and the Three Brothers DLC can redeem a free copy of the Definitive Edition.

What are you waiting for? Pick up your backpack and go!
