In this third-person action-adventure game, you play as Brynn, a young and fearless Weaver determined to recover her people’s cultural home by uncovering the mysteries of the Enclave - a once powerful nation that now lies dormant. Fight epic, 25-meters-high climbable creatures known as the Arks, while blending magical abilities with an arsenal of powerful weapons to keep the world from crumbling. Use the environment and extreme weather events to your advantage in battles against a big roster of fantastical creatures. Immerse yourself in a vast and rich lore where you will build relationships with a diverse cast of characters.
“Our hope with Eternal Strands is to deliver an adventure that
brings a sense of fun and excitement to fantasy, while encouraging
players to experiment with its systems. It’s a very different game to
ones I’ve worked on in the past, and it’s been a delight to generally
answer the question ‘what if the player does X?’ with ‘Cool!’ It’s also
exciting to have a chance to build an all-new world that encourages and
reacts to this kind of play.” Says Mike Laidlaw, Chief Creative Officer at Yellow Brick Games.
“We kicked off this adventure 4 years ago during the pandemic with
nothing more than a dream and an idea to build amazing games with
amazing people. To now be here is such an incredible feeling. It’s been a
journey and we can’t wait for everyone to see what we’ve been pouring
our hearts and souls into. I’m pumped!” Says Jeff Skalski, COO and Executive Producer at Yellow Brick Games.
Key features:
The World is Your Weapon: At the heart of Eternal Strands is
a revolutionary new system for gameplay interactions: heat spreads,
cold chills, and real-time destruction allows for unprecedented
reactivity in combat. Hurl burning tree trunks at enemies with
telekinetic, snap nearby trees to block opposing fire, or channel raw
telekinetic force to rip boulders from the ground.
Weaver of Magic: Wear the Mantle, a magical cloak that
channels raw magic into raging flame, chilling ice, and telekinetic
force. Combine your growing array of powers with enchanted weapons and
armor crafted from slain enemies to create a custom look and style.
Block incoming attacks with a wall of magical ice, lash out waves of
flame from a massive two-handed blade or turn a dragon’s fiery breath
against ice-covered minions.
Unstable Climate to Master: Enhance the effectiveness of your ice abilities during a flash freeze to open up new paths. Use a heatwave to start a wildfire and watch it spread towards enemies as it consumes the tinder-dry trees and grass around it.
A World Rich with Secrets: Explore the wilds, the capital city of Dynevron, and the secrets beneath as every surface is climbable. Magical abilities can create bridges, burn barriers, or launch Brynn across the world. The next-generation physics system encourages and rewards player creativity in exploration as much as combat. As the Enclave’s secrets unfold, return to base camp to consult with a rich cast of characters. Each are keen to discover the mysteries of what happened to this lost bastion of power and knowledge.
A realm of mystery, opportunity, danger, and wonder: the Enclave awaits.
Eternal Strands is set to launch on PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 in 2025. Developed with an 'accessible to anyone' mindset, this Teen-rated game is set to please a wide range of audiences, including the most demanding action-combat players.
