And hurry, as Fulqrum Publishing is celebrating the game’s launch with a special 15% discount for the first week of release!

This Early Access launch features about a quarter of the main story and around a third of the full game’s overall content, giving players access to three of the planned six total companions in the final game.

New Arc Line | Early Access Launch Trailer

Set in a world teetering on the precipice of change, New Arc Line is a story-rich RPG that invites players to explore the abundant yet troubled realm where magic and technology collide. 

The New World awaits, and with it, the last beacon of hope for a potential cure for a global plague that threatens your loved ones as well. But all is not as it seems – tensions simmer beneath the gilded surface of New Arc. Arcane magic clashes with steampunk ingenuity, the wealthy exploit the impoverished, and prejudice festers between humans and other races. As a stranger in this volatile land, you are thrust into the heart of the conflict. Your choices will not only shape your own fate but also the future of this fractured world.

Will you side with the established powers or champion the downtrodden? Will you embrace the arcane arts or harness the power of technology? In this RPG, every choice carries weight, leading to many branching storylines and impactful consequences. 

About New Arc Line:

  • Become the Hero or Villain you want to be

Create your own character as a human or elf, and choose your gender, background, and appearance. Keep in mind that inhabitants of this world might have their own prejudices and will treat you differently depending on your choices.

  • Gather your Party

You won’t be alone on these shores. Meet & recruit a diverse cast of characters, learn their stories, face their demons together, and help them grow, or use them for your own gain and discard them as fits your schemes. Who knows, maybe you will even find your true love!

  • Master Technology or Magic

Will you master the secrets of Magic to incinerate enemies as a Hellfire occultist, curse them with mystical Voodoo abilities, or assist your allies as a Celestial sage? Or would you instead cast aside the obsolete ways and become a Steampunk mechanic, Dieselpunk engineer, or Teslapunk scientist and turn your character into a walking steam-powered fortress?

  • Fight for Your Right

Command your party in turn-based tactical battles. Fight head-on and brute-force your way through encounters, or observe and analyze each situation and come up with cunning strategies to conquer even seemingly overwhelming odds. There are many skills, spells, crafting recipes, and consumables at your disposal to turn the tide of battle in your favour.

  • Manifest Your Destiny

Make a name for yourself, influence countless lives for better or worse, and watch the consequences of your choices unfold. You may start as only a poor immigrant, but soon, your exploits will fill the front pages of newspapers, and the events you set in motion will change the fate of the New World forever.

New Arc Line is out now, and available in Early Access for $19.99/€19.99 on PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GoG – Currently available at 15% off!

SLOVAKIA’S WILD ‘90s COME ALIVE IN AN EPIC OPEN-WORLD GAME BASED ON TRUE EVENTS

Drive, Spy, and Survive in 1990s Bratislava – Now Fully Playable in English on Steam Early Access

Bratislava, Slovakia – November 26th, 2024 – In an era when a President’s son could be kidnapped in broad daylight and journalists disappeared without a trace, 1990s Slovakia wasn’t just living through history – it was surviving it.

As you navigate through layers of corruption and betrayal, each mission reveals another piece of a true story that Western media never dared to cover – until now.

“This is the game we always wanted to make – a story about the city we grew up in, during its most dramatic transformation,” says Roman Lipka, Team Vivat’s Producer. “We’re not making up stories here – we’re telling them. The missions, characters, and even the undercover taxi you drive are all based on real events and vehicles from the era. Players can immerse themselves in a slice of history that’s never been explored in gaming before, and the response has been incredible. From positive Steam ratings to growing international media attention, it’s clear this authentic experience resonates far beyond Slovakia’s borders.”

  • Authentic ‘90s Bratislava – Explore a meticulously recreated city during its wildest era
  • True Crime Missions – Investigate actual historical events, from presidential kidnapping to underground operations
  • Get Behind The Wheel – Drive 50+ iconic vehicles, each reflecting the distinctive character of ‘90s Slovakia. 
  • Go Deep Undercover – Infiltrate a complex network of criminals, politicians, and power players.
  • Beyond the Mission – Master street racing, run import/export schemes, make special deliveries, or escape to peaceful fishing spots
