Artisan Studios, developer of Astria Ascending and Super Neptunia RPG, has released a new gameplay trailer for Lost Hellden.
View the description:
Resist Sin. Seize Your Destiny. Lost Hellden is an action JRPG created by industry veterans, featuring hand-painted 3D art, a vast world to explore, and a Phase Battle system blending turn-based and real-time combat.
Bound by the religion of Unio, the people of Era each embody one of the Seven Deadly Sins. Those who resist temptation are promised eternity in the sacred lands of Hellden, but those who succumb to their desires face a punishment worse than death.
Lost Hellden is a JRPG inspired by genre classics. Set in a charming hand-painted 3D world, it features artwork by Takeshi Oga (Gravity Rush) and a soundtrack by Hitoshi Sakimoto (Final Fantasy XII, Final Fantasy Tactics, Valkyria Chronicles). Follow eight customizable characters on a journey across Era and beyond, mastering a Phase Battle system that balances turn-based tactics with real-time action.
A Tale of Sins and Self-Discovery
The birth of twins is an ill omen. The Binding Ritual fails, leaving Cyphel born without sin while bearing all seven. Hidden within Unio Temple, both are raised as Arkhons, defenders of the faith.
Seven years later, Leht flees, vowing to overcome his burden alone. Cyphel leaves the temple’s safety to find him, confronting a world rife with monsters, rebels, and celestial conspiracies. Lost Hellden weaves a gripping narrative of self-discovery, family, and destiny, fully voiced in Japanese and English.
Revolutionary Combat
A unique Phase Battle system merges the thrill of real-time action with tactical turn-based mechanics. Master timing and positioning, leverage elemental attributes, and chain party commands to attack or defend against monstrous and divine foes. Unleash powerful Transcendent Talents to turn battles, with deep customization through multi-layer roles, skill trees, and varied equipment.
Explore an Expansive World
Immerse in a classic JRPG world through “Deep 2D” hand-painted artistry by Takeshi Oga (Gravity Rush). Lost Hellden’s aesthetic is elevated by Hitoshi Sakimoto’s majestic score (Final Fantasy XII, Final Fantasy Tactics, Valkyria Chronicles).
Secrets lurk everywhere: discover collectibles, hidden items, and rare enemies. Utilize weather patterns and special skills to unlock new NPCs and areas. Aid those you meet or master Hexaken, Era’s most popular pastime.
Lost Hellden releases on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch, and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG in 2025.
