The Wayward Realms wants to be The Elder Scrolls — but even more ambitious

The Wayward Realms wants to be The Elder Scrolls — merely even more than ambitious

If you follow The Elderberry Scrolls, you may already be familiar with The Wayward Realms — an upcoming fantasy RPG that shares a lot of DNA with Bethesda's hit series. 2 original Elderberry Scrolls creators have teamed upwardly for this projection, which aims to recreate all the all-time parts of the Elder Scrolls, but with even more than focus on narrative decisions and function-playing.

Thanks to a recent teaser trailer and Steam listing, we have more info than always about The Wayward Realms. If the game can pull off everything it advertises, it should be worth a await from Elderberry Scrolls fans, as well as anyone with an analogousness for PC-style RPGs.

While The Wayward Realms has been in development for more than a year, nosotros've learned an awful lot well-nigh the game in the last few days. First and foremost, at that place's the teaser trailer, which y'all tin can view on YouTube and beneath:

  • Play the best PC RPGs
  • Likewise effort the best PC games
  • Plus: Later five years, nosotros now know the last Street Fighter V character

As fantasy RPG trailers go, information technology'south nearly what you'd expect. There's a chilling forest, an charlatan on horseback, a glowing lite and a large reveal on a mountain vista, with a castle far off in the distance. The globe of The Wayward Realms appears to have three moons, which is an interesting touch. It's also a risk to hear some of the game'southward music by Eric Heberling, who as well wrote the music for The Elder Scrolls: Arena and The Elder Scrolls: Daggerfall.

In fact, if you liked Arena and Daggerfall, The Wayward Realms may well hold more appeal for you than Morrowind, Oblivion or Skyrim. That'due south because Ted Peterson and Julian LeFay — the minds behind the first two Elderberry Scrolls games — have teamed upward again to work on The Wayward Realms. The "go anywhere; do anything" vibe from the early Elder Scrolls entries seems like it will be present in this new project besides:

"[Developer] Once Lost Games is creating a new open up-world fantasy RPG where pick, consequence, scope and part-playing will be experienced similar never before in a realistically-scaled open world in a new form of game: the Grand RPG," the game's Steam page explains. "The Wayward Realms is set on a group of over one hundred, realistically scaled, islands, known collectively as the Archipelago, where scores of factions vie for influence and ability."

What could prepare The Wayward Realms autonomously from The Elder Scrolls and like games is its Game Master mechanic. The Wayward Realms will take a "virtual Game Chief" that moderates the experience, much like a real Game Master does in a tabletop RPG. According to the Steam list, this Game Principal "keeps things interesting for you, making other characters and their factions react and plot their side by side movement based on your actions." The details are a bit vague at present, but whatever persona you arts and crafts for yourself — a thief, an aristocrat, a scholar and then forth — will affect how other characters perceive y'all, and how the story unfolds.

While The Wayward Realms does finally have a Steam page, at that place'due south still no release appointment planned. The game does seem large and ambitious, particularly since One time Lost Games comprises a small development team. However, Elder Scrolls fans should go on their eyes on this one — particularly since, all other things being equal, it could still come out before The Elder Scrolls Six.
