Fans of action RPG and cyberpunk genres should check out this newest title from an indie studio in Thailand. GambitGhost Studio just launched the Beta version of Farsiders.
Farsiders is a top-down, hack-and-slash RPG set in a stylized, futuristic cyberpunk world. Beginning July 19, PC players can access the game via Steam. GambitGhost Studio has also dropped the game's trailer on YouTube for interested players to check out.
Farsiders places players in the shoes of its female protagonist, Cassie, a member of a special force called Spectralon. As Cassie, they need to fight against the Soul Syndicate, a terrorist group notorious for using dark magic.
The game's story starts when Cassie encounters the leader of the Soul Syndicate. As a result, the players will be transported into a mythical realm called Camelot. According to the developers, Farsiders will feature real-time hack-and-slash combat, movement, and spell casting.
Players can use various weapons and collect spell cards that grant them different abilities and effects. They can also combine spell cards to create their builds and playstyles.
Farsiders' entire storyline consists of six acts. For the Beta version, however, GambitGhost Studio will only release the first five acts.
The final and sixth act will be released as a free update later. Developers explained that the decision would allow them to deliver a "polished and stable" gaming experience.
They added that this approach will allow them more time to address player concerns effectively. By staggering the release of Act 6, we can ensure that the game's overall stability is maintained, and any potential issues or bugs are resolved,
the studio said.
Aside from Act 6, developers also plan to add more features to the game after its release. These included more difficulty levels, localization options, and save slots.
