Pascal’s Wager developer TipsWorks has announced their new game, a dark fantasy action RPG with a clear Soulslike influence titled “Ballad of Antara“.

The title was announced as part of today’s State of Play, and Ballad of Antara will be available on the PlayStation 5, but the developers have said it will be multi-platform.

Published by Infold Games, the current targeted release window of the game is 2025.

The premise is as follows:

“From a distant past, the arrows of time have gone wayward, and the seeds of everything in-between ceased to blossom. The familiar “essences,” taken away by a sudden cloud of Mist, are veiled under the unknown side of the world.”

In this game, you embark on a perilous journey in 2 parallel worlds, a normal one and an alternate version known as the Para where supernatural powers reside. There will be multiple playable characters, called Emissaries, each with their own story.

“Finding and rallying these Emissaries across the world, strengthening your forces, and discovering the truth behind the calamity of this land, are your primary goals in Ballad of Antara,” said studio head Yang Yang in an official PlayStation Blog.

“The young girl shown at the end of our reveal trailer is the key to this endeavor. You will help her undo the devastation done to this desolate world through trials, twists, and confrontation, and witness her growth along the way.”
