Ravenlok, the next game from Cococumber of Echo Generation fame, launches on May 4th for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PC (via the Microsoft Store and Epic Games Store). Retailing for $24.99, it’s also playable on Game Pass at launch. Check out the latest trailer below, which highlights some characters and combat.

Ravenlok is about Kira, who moves with her family to the countryside and discovers a mirror to the Realm of Dunia. With a sword and shield, she becomes Ravenlok and fights to free the realm from the despotic queen. The Alice in Wonderland similarities are obvious, but the action RPG also takes cues from the works of Tolkien and Studio Ghibli.

As producer/director Vanessa Chia says, “Growing up in Malaysia, classics by J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, and Studio Ghibli allowed me to open a portal into another world, into a realm of imagination and possibilities. Through this fable about the fight for a creative life, we hope that the adventures of Ravenlok can bring a sense of escapism and joy to all.”

Along with hacking and slashing, Kira can use potions, magical bombs and spells to take out enemies. On Xbox Series X, the title supports 4K resolution and 60 FPS and looks pretty clean. Stay tuned for more details en route to release.

Cococucumber, known for the turn-based adventure game Echo Generation, has announced a brand new title – Ravenlok. Releasing in 2023, it’s a fairy tale action RPG that embodies the same voxel art style. Check out the first trailer below.

The story is about a young girl named Ravenlok, who discovered a magic mirror and ends up in a new land. After being cursed by the Caterpillar Queen, she begins her quest to fight back and save the kingdom. Along with various realms to explore, there are also different weapons to discover and skills to unlock.

There’s a real Alice in Wonderland vibe to many of the characters, though our hero will also encounter various overwhelming bosses like a mechanized hawk. Along with releasing for Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC (via the Epic Games Store and Microsoft Store), Ravenlok is also coming to Game Pass on day one. Stay tuned for more details in the coming months.

This week’s free PC games on the Epic Games Store are now live with Firaxis’s XCOM 2 and Insurmountable from ByteRockers’ Games. Available until April 21st, all one needs to do is have an Epic Games Store account, sign in and claim them. You’ll need the Epic Games Launcher to play them as well.

Next week’s free games include couch co-op adventure title Riverbond from Cococucumber and Frictional Games’ Amnesia: Rebirth. The latter is the follow-up to the hit psychological horror series and takes place in the Algerian desert. As Tasi Trianon, players must retrace their steps and piece together their memories to find out how they got there and what terrible horror is pursuing you.

You can check out our review of the title here. It sold over 100,000 units as of March 2021 (without turning a profit, as per the developer) and has since received Adventure Mode. The latter provides a less scary and stressful alternative to experiencing the story. Amnesia: Rebirth and Riverbond will be free on the Epic Games Store from April 21st to 28th.
