I doubt I’ve said this before on this website, but I have a big soft spot for Spiders Studio, creators of diamonds in the rough such as Mars: War Logs or Bound by Flame. Sadly, their games aren’t as well known as I would hope, something that I expect will change after the release of GreedFall, an upcoming fantasy RPG with guns, magic and an interesting world based on colonial times.

If you are also hyped for Spiders‘ latest, then you might be happy to learn that their publisher (Focus Home Interactive) has just released a pretty in-depth gameplay video showcasing many aspects of the game.

Explore uncharted new lands as you set foot on a remote island seeping with magic, and filled with riches, lost secrets, and fantastic creatures.

Forge this new world’s destiny, as you befriend or betray companions and entire factions. With diplomacy, deception and force, become part of a living, evolving world – influence its course and shape your story.

Engage in a core roleplaying experience – achieve quests and complete objectives in a multitude of different ways – through combat, diplomacy, deception, or stealth.

Complete freedom in character progression – play as a male or female, customize your appearance, and freely choose your abilities, spells and skills.

Delve into a mysterious world of magic – begin a grand journey and uncover ancient secrets protected by supernatural beings, manifestations of the island’s earthly magic.

GreedFall is coming to PC (Steam) on September 10th. If you liked the gameplay video enough to pre-purchase the game, you can do so right now, for US$49.99 or your regional equivalent.
