The Game

Ashen is an action RPG about a wanderer in search of a place to call home. There is no sun and the natural light that exists comes from eruptions that cover the land in ash. This is a world where nothing lasts, no matter how tightly you cling to it. At its core, Ashen is about forging relationships. Players can choose to guide those they trust to their camp, encouraging them to rest at the fire and perhaps remain. People you meet out in the world will have unique skills and crafting abilities to bolster your chances of survival. Together, you might just stand a chance.

Features

Passive Multiplayer

People you meet out in the world are players with their own agendas. It will be up to you to decide how to deal with them.

Non-linear progression

No two games will ever be the same. This is a world that moves on without you. Simply being in a different place at a certain time will alter the story in dramatic ways.

Open World Exploration

Your settlement is nestled in the mountains, surrounded by hand crafted environments as far as the eye can see.

High Risk

Combat Each encounter, no matter how trivial seeming, has the potential to end in disaster. Knowing the land and being patient are some of the most valuable weapons available to a lone wanderer in Ashen. Sometimes it is best to turn and run.

Creatures

The creatures of Ashen include rare, lonely giants and hungry, twisted inhabitants of the night. Despite the perils of the darkness, life always finds a way. This is a land teaming with a diverse array of flora and fauna.

The Town

The town will be cobbled together from survivors you choose to bring to your settlement. They might provide you with help ranging from blacksmithing to foraging expertise.

This along ReCore were the most interesting showings from Micro's e3. I didn't know it was an RPG so that makes it even more interesting.

I remember getting a feel of ICO/SotC out of it. I will probably play it in PC.

very intriguing concept and I like the art style, although it's a bit creepy that people have no faces

ReCore and this were the best M$ games shown. Then that one game that the fat Asian girl was showing, forgot what it's called. Ohh and Cuphead

The Passive Multiplayer sounds interesting. You will meet other players out in the world that have their own agendas. It will be up to you to decide how you deal with them.

I think you mean beyond eyes

Yes, there you go. A game about someone who can't see. A game that probaly teaches you that beauty is only skin deep
