Publisher Owlcat Games and developer Emotion Spark Studio have announced that the narrative RPG Rue Valley will launch on November 11 for PS5, Xbox Series, Switch, and PC.
Check out a description of the title:
Break free from a mysterious time loop! Embark on a journey of self-discovery and resilience. Plunge into the enigmatic depths of a small God-forsaken town: Rue Valley.
Each day feels like a grueling battle against the shadows of your own mind. Along the way, you’ll encounter an engaging cast of characters, each grappling with their own emotional complexities and revealing hidden depths as you get to know them.
Can you muster the courage to unravel the secrets of this temporal anomaly? Can you discover the strength within to overcome adversity and build a brighter future?
Create your own personality in Rue Valley. You can be an insensitive loner who overthinks everything or a melodramatic chatterbox who always trusts their instincts.
Whether you reflect your true personality or role-play as someone entirely different, your character will shape your in-game dialogues and interactions.
Store memories in a chart, unlocking intentions and mindsets as you uniquely progress through the story. Wager on peculiar mindsets for unexpected and hilarious dialogues, and experience Status Effects that alter your personality: become more extroverted when drunk or extremely sensitive when anxious.
Experiment with different responses and timelines, because the loop will restart from the beginning anyway, won’t it?
