Over the past month, Bloody Chronicles developer Igrasil Studio has been crowdfunding on Kickstarter for its latest game, War of Ashird. The game is a grid-based, turn-based RPG, where you play as a newly instated soldier who rises up the ranks in the war-torn continent of Ashird. Now, it has been fully funded.
Check out a trailer below:
War of Ashird features a mix of visual novel story sequences and a strategy phase where the player can explore Ashird and do battle with neighboring countries. During these fights, you’ll play as the protagonist in grid-based battles alongside named allies whom you’ll get to know. During important match-ups against story bosses, it’ll switch to turn-based combat, like in traditional RPGs. Igrasil Studio stated that you’ll be able to forge your own story, decide the outcomes of sidequests, and rise up the ranks to possibly become a lord in the Kingdom of Ceredia.
Since the beginning of the crowdfunding project on Kickstarter, the project has reached and surpassed its goal of $31,500 by over three times. It has since achieved three of its stretch goals, which are a bonus dungeon, a castle management system, and a crafting system for weapons, armor, and items. The project’s Kickstarter crowdfunding will end on June 12 2020 at 7:59 AM AWST.
War of Ashird is targeting a PC release in 2021. PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch releases are planned for 2022.
