Disciples: Liberation releases on Xbox, PlayStation and PC

Just a quick glance at the key features of Disciples: Liberation should be enough to sell it – 80+ hours of campaign through a war-torn world, all as you create your own story, take on challenging bosses and place serious consideration on each and every choice. Yep, Disciples: Liberation on Xbox, PlayStation and PC promises much. 

Coming from the Kalypso Media and Frima Studio teams, Disciples: Liberation is a dark, mature, strategic RPG like no other, one in which player choice plays a huge role in how things roll out. It’s priced at £41.74 and will give you the chance to head to Nevendaar, a rich world which is ripe for exploration. 

It’s here where your choices will dictate what follows; one where every single decision has a consequence, and every incorrect move may well prove to be your last. It has you wandering the land, teaming up with in-world factions as you look to assemble a team strong enough to lead. Where you take them is also up to you, and no matter whether you prefer to delve into a political route, or into the most fierce of battles, it should well allow for it. 

Frima Studio Game Designer Eric Latouche teases, “While Avyanna begins as a petty mercenary, she doesn’t stay a mercenary for long. Players will discover how as a Nephilim, she possesses Twilight powers, so-called for the ability to conjure both the dark and the light. This grants her access to a long-forgotten angelic city named Yllian.”

Kalypso Media Producer Florian Treppke says, “Players can now seize their destiny, align with factions, choose companions and discover how their choices will make a difference in not only the gameplay, but on Avyanna herself and Yllian, with the ultimate goal of liberating the fate of Nevendaar.”

Louis Lamarche, Frima Studio Creative Director adds, “For those who have followed along in our journey, they may know we’ve previously mentioned the five endings led by her choices. Well, we’ve held something back for players to discover only after they play through the game. We’re looking forward to feedback as all gets revealed!”
