Fulqrum Publishing and Dreamate Games have announced New Arc Line, a single-player RPG with a rich story, coming to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
Set during the Gilded Age of magic and technology, New Arc Line welcomes players to a troubled world. The New World looms on the horizon, the shining city of progress and the last beacon of hope in your search for a cure to your family’s fatal disease. But you will soon discover that the city’s beauty runs only skin-deep. Tensions are growing between different factions in the world of arcane magic and steampunk gadgets. The rich are exploiting the poor. The humanoid are hunting the monstrous. And in the middle of it all, you, a stranger in a strange land, unaware of the role you have to play in shaping the future of this world.
Which side will you choose? What will you become?
Arcane Magic and the Steampunk Revolution
Step into the epic battle between Arcane Magic and the Steampunk Revolution. Choose your path as a master of the arcane or inventor of deadly gadgets. Use cunning and wit to manipulate your way to the top. Forge alliances and make enemies. Find love amidst a web of conspiracy and shape the course of history.
Shape your story in the metropolis of New Arc, ‘The Shining City of Progress’. You will arrive by steerage of a steamship, full of wonder and hope – but things are never quite as bright as they appear. Dark smoke from the factories chokes the skies. Segregation, inequality, and corruption run rampant. In order to survive and save your loved ones, you will have to rise from the very bottom. There’s going to be tough decisions to make. And you’ll need to get your hands dirty with the help of your diverse party of companions.
New Arc Line offers players a narrative adventure with turn-based tactical battles, a complex character creator, and a believable world full of difficult decisions.
