Emberville Shows Gameplay, Adds New Cast Member

Cygnus Cross released a new trailer for action adventure RPG Emberville ahead of the game’s Steam Early Access release this summer. The four-minute video includes a look at combat, character customisation, UI elements, and a new NPC. It also includes the reveal that Amelia Tyler (the narrator in Baldur’s Gate III and Hecate in Hades II) is part of the game’s voice cast.

Emberville follows an amnesic individual who escaped from a mysterious dungeon named Vitromotus. Accompanied by Memento, a luminous entity that claims to have their memories locked inside them, the protagonist must rescue townspeople stranded in the procedurally generated Vitromotus and rebuild the decrepit town of Emberville. Rescued townspeople help in the rebuilding effort, teach new skills, and assist players in their quests. The real-time combat lets players chain combos with a variety of weapons and class-related skills. Players can take part in activities such as farming, gathering, and fishing, as well as customise Emberville with houses and other buildings.
