<p>XSEED Games has released the opening cinematic for their new action <a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/best/rpg/" title="Best Switch RPGs">RPG</a>, <a href="https://whatoplay.com/pc/silent-hope/" title="Silent Hope for PC">Silent Hope</a>. The game is set to launch on the Switch and PC (via Steam) in North America and Europe on October 3.</p>


<p>The short film introduces the seven characters at their base camp preparing for an expedition into the Abyss. Setting the tone of the game is the title track from popular Japanese band, <strong>KAMI WA SAIKORO WO FURANAI</strong>. It features members Shuusaku Yanagita, Kiichi Yoshida, Gaku Kiriki, and Ryousuke Kurokawa.</p>

<p>The band's lead singer, Shuusaku Yanagita, shared his excitement about the project. <q>I love RPGs ever since I was a child... When I was chosen to write the theme song for Silent Hope, a brand new action RPG, my eyes lit up just like I was a kid again.</q></p>

<p><a href="https://whatoplay.com/switch/silent-hope/" title="Silent Hope for Nintendo Switch">Silent Hope</a> takes transports players into a world silenced by a King who stole speech from people before disappearing into the Abyss. Years later, seven heroes with newly-discovered powers arise. To restore peace, they must venture deep into the Abyss, find the long-lost King, and free the Princess.</p>

<p><q>The story and themes of this game, set in a world that has lost the ability to community through language, feel like an antithesis to today's social media society. A single word can both hurt and save. We hope that the message of Silent Hope and of our song will reach not only audiences in Japan but around the world.</q>, Yanagita added.</p>

<p>Silent Hope embraces some aspects of classic isometric dungeon-crawlers and modern game mechanics. Players will venture into the Abyss, craft new weapons, and upgrade gears. Every expedition is a new experience, with new map layout, enemies, and challenges.</p>

<p>Preorders for the Day 1 physical edition, priced at $49.99, are now open at the XSEED Games Store and participating retailers. This edition includes an artbook and soundtrack. The base game is also available for for $39.99 on <a href="https://www.nintendo.com/store/products/silent-hope-switch/">eShop</a> and <a href="http://store.steampowered.com/app/1960110">Steam</a>.</p>
