Today, during Summer Game Fest Live with Geoff Keighley, Raw Power Games–a new Copenhagen-based studio featuring devs who previously worked on games like Cyberpunk 2077 and Grand Theft Auto–unveiled its first project. The game is called Chronicles: Medieval, and it is an action-RPG where each player’s choice will create an experience „where no two stories are ever the same.“
The announcement trailer shown at SGF Live–with voiceover provided by Tom Hardy–showed a cinematic scene alternating between a blacksmith preparing a sword, a soldier walking to the front of his army, and other scenes. Eventually, the soldier mounts his horse, raises his sword, and the army charges into battle as the trailer shifts from cinematics to actual gameplay.
Chronicles: Medieval features an „immersive medieval sandbox“ where players will create their own characters and venture into the world, which will be influenced by their decisions. Each player must choose one of three story paths–power, adventure, or fortune–for their character, after which they must balance diplomacy and outright conflict in order to progress.
