XSEED Games and Marvelous USA released their intriguing new action RPG, Silent Hope, on the Nintendo Switch and Windows PC worldwide. Additionally, they revealed a Digital Deluxe edition for Steam, offering an art book with over 100 pages and an original soundtrack with 33 tracks. To mark the game’s release, the ‘Official World Guide’ for Silent Hope has received its final update, expanding the wealth of game and lore information available with new strategy tips to prepare players before their first adventures into The Abyss.

Silent Hope harkens back to the glory days of isometric dungeon-crawlers, but with a modern touch. Players will take the role of seven unlikely heroes, each with their own unique weapon, separate fighting style, and non-combat job, spending their days battling through enemies and collecting materials in The Abyss before returning to Base Camp to craft and rest up for their next adventure. Each journey into The Abyss will be a fresh experience, with procedurally generated layouts ensuring no two expeditions into the mysterious caverns below will be the same. The deeper the heroes delve, the more about the world that once was they’ll uncover, and the greater rewards – and challenges – they’ll find.

Silent Hope’s main story plot

In a world without words, what hope is there for humanity? Silent Hope takes place in a once-peaceful land, silenced by the former King who stole people’s speech before escaping into the endless chasm known as The Abyss. Following these events, the Princess, mourning her father’s actions, wept until she was entombed in a magical teardrop. Now, years after these events faded from memory, seven heroes find themselves imbued with new powers and drawn towards the Princess; and to free her they must brave the depths of The Abyss to find the long-lost King and free the Princess from her crystalline prison. Can these seven unlikely strangers come together in wordless unity to save the princess, and in doing so return words to the world once again?

The developer, Marvelous, is an expert in crafting endearing and exciting dungeon exploration. With a lot of experience in their portfolio, such as the recently released Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life and the remaster Rune Factory 3 Special, there’s a lot to see and grasp for casual and veteran players alike.
