Developer Random Potion and Publisher Wild River Games released a new trailer of the upcoming RPG The Dark Eye: Book of Heroes.
The trailer focuses on the Black Boar Inn, which basically serves as a hub for the game where you can enjoy the tutorial, hire henchmen, choose your adventure, find an online session, and more.
While many may not be very familiar with The Dark Eye franchise, it’s the most successful tabletop RPG in Germany, where it surpasses Dungeons & Dragons in terms of popularity.
There have been plenty of video games dedicated to the series in the past, often dubbed with the North American name Realms of Arkania, but they have remained relatively obscure on the worldwide stage like the original RPG itself.
You can check out the trailer below.
The Dark Eye: Book of Heroes will be released on June 9 on Steam. You can also watch another trailer, and another featuring character creation.
If you’re unfamiliar with the game, here’s an official description.
Based on THE DARK EYE license, Book of Heroes puts you right into the fantasy world of Aventuria where you can raid dungeons and experience adventures, together with friends or alone, that you can only overcome with combined skills and forces.
Play with up to 4 players where you combine the specialities of the different species and professions to overcome enemies, puzzles and challenges in the myriad of procedurally generated maps.
Choose from 12 different professions such as Assassin, Mercenary, Blessed one of Rondra, Knight or Black Magician and one of the four playable species: elves, half-elves, dwarves and humans and individualize the appearance of your character as you see fit.
