Long-awaited turn-based RPG Zoria: Age of Shattering quests onto PC

Crafted by a team of three over seven years, Zoria: Age of Shattering continues the turn-based RPG renaissance on the PC.

Yeah, that’s a while

So yeah, turns out that it takes a while to make something as expansive as Zoria: Age of Shattering, especially if you’re a development team of three. Now it’s seven years after the game first entered said development however, and Anshar Publishing and Tiny Trinket Games’ role-player has finally arrived.

Though it’s been in the works for the better part of a decade, the title takes up the turn-based mantle, So it’s got some pretty great timing. Unless you’ve been gaming under a rock, you likely are aware that a little game called Baldur’s Gate III ushered in a new era of popularity for the formerly dormant play style.

But there’s much more to Zoria than just isometric views and turn-based battles. Genre fans can expect to see base-building and party management, a crafting system, and quests that are dependent on who exactly you stock in your group.

Also worth a note is that it’s looking sharp, with some neat lighting effects and creature designs.

Zoria is a single player tactical RPG with faster paced combat than traditional turn-based RPGs, an emphasis on class synergy and outpost and follower management, all set in an expansive fantasy world. In Zoria, you’ll be tasked with gathering the best warriors and mages to form a team of four that will liberate the Kingdom of Zoria which has fallen prey to the hellspawn that roam its land. Once lush forests, majestic buildings and thriving towns have been transformed into dark, dangerous locales. And this time we added new words to this description paragraph so you wouldn’t complain about reading the same exact thing for three press releases in a row. So make sure to send your thank you notes to the email at the bottom of this media release to encourage us to do more of this in the future.
