Drova: Forsaken Kin transports players to a mystical Celtic world, blending action-RPG elements with dark, gritty storytelling. The game features a brutal open world where ancient spirits and divided factions clash for dominance. Players will uncover forgotten abilities and delve into a mysterious past as they navigate this unforgiving landscape.
The combat system is designed to be challenging, featuring various weapon classes and magic. While players can expect to face numerous defeats, the game assures that growth and eventual revenge are part of the journey.
Key Features and Gameplay
The game boasts 40 hours of story-driven gameplay within a handcrafted, seamless open pixel art world. Players must choose between two factions to survive, adding a layer of strategy to the experience. The developers emphasize the importance of caution, advising players to trust no one in this harsh environment.
A notable aspect of Drova is the choice it presents to players regarding the spirits of nature – they can either enslave or save them, adding a moral dimension to the gameplay.
After six years in development, Drova: Forsaken Kin has generated considerable buzz. At Gamescom, attendees had the opportunity to play the game on PC and Nintendo Switch. Interestingly, creators of the original Gothic game participated in a public playtest, praising Drova for capturing the essence of their classic title.
With the October 15 release date nearing, RPG fans can gear up for a Celtic-inspired pixel art adventure available across multiple gaming platforms.
