Long ago, the eight races lived together in Harmony
Astria’s story has a sort of fable-y quality to it, with a bunch of fantasy races who live together peacefully so long as they remember to eat their Harmelons. You’ll play as a party of eight heroes called Demigods who’ve been selected at random from the population to serve a three year term as guardians of the peace. Despite its very fantastical setup, Artisan say it’s “a story based around adult characters,” and that it “offers a more mature experience and extensive dialog.”

On the combat side, you’ll take your party into turn-based battles where Artisan say you can summon legendary beasts as you fight through dungeons. You don’t get a terribly close look at the combat in the announcement trailer up there but you can spot some turn-based staples you’ll be familiar with—choosing attacks based on enemy weaknesses and the like.
Astria Ascending has just been announced, so it doesn’t have a release date yet. You can keep an eye on it or wishlist it overon Steamin the meantime.
